I don't know what to call this yet... your opinions please!

by **Punisher** » January 7th, 2011, 3:08 pm

I'll try and refrain from using names for now...

"Person A" called me up to do a job for him last year around June 2010. The job was some interior fiberglassing for his customer's car. The job was quoted at $500. We both agreed, shook hands and the job was done.

"Person A" calls me a couple of days later asking if I can help out with maybe doing some glassing in this car's boot. I explained to "Person A" that I was having surgery on my hand and I couldn't do much. He said "any help would be appreciated". So, after doing what I could with 1 hand, respectively, the boot ended up unfinished. Due to other engagements, my hand not recovering well, and the fact that "Person A" couldn't make up his mind about which way he wanted things, "Person A" used another workshop to finish off the boot setup. I agreed that because the boot setup wasn't finished, I wasn't going to charge him for it.

After countless messages and phone calls, I pay "Person A" a friendly visit at the start of December 2010. Our conversation was "neutral". I asked him if he could pay me, at least some money, he said he couldn't afford it right now (even though he had taken a payment from another customer in front of me). He proceeded to tell me that he still needs to get money from the customer so he could pay me. I hate talking about money. But I do believe in playing fair. I had to run off so enough of the chit-chat. Throughout the holidays though, "Person A" would post on "Facebook" all the fancy new stuff he got/bought himself for Xmas (Craftsman Brand adjustable ratchet spanners, a new MIG welder and welder's pack worth over $500 and a few other items).

On Wednesday just past (5/01/11), I called "Person A" to see if he was home/his garage to pay him a visit. No pickup. Because I was in the area, I thought I would pop in. After having a bit of a discussion with him about the work I've done for him and how he/other businesses are claiming credit for, I brought up the topic about the money. He proceeds to get agro at the fact that I want so much. I said to him "Step up and be a man. You shook my hand and gave me your word. If you can't give it all to me then give me some." He started with excuses and started screaming that what I did isn't worth the money." I tried to reason with him and said again "Pay me what you owe me like you've already paid everyone else."

He pushed me.
*he screams "Get the **** out of my house!"
He pushed me again.

At this point in time, his mom walks into the garage screaming at me to "get out."

I turned to her and said, "Ma'am, I've always, ALWAYS treated you and your family with respect. Teach your son to treat others with respect too!"

I turn around and he smashes me on the right side of my head with something... IT WAS ON LIKE DONKEY KONG!

Now, I know some of you out there are expecting me to go on with what happened, I'm sorry but I cannot reveal anything incase I incriminate myself.

In the end, I'm still cleaning chunks of his ass off my shoes. But with no cash.

Out the front of his house, he's screaming "You're fucked ****! From this day forward you better look over your shoulder coz you're so fucked! I know where you live and I don't give a **** about you or your family!"

This has escalated to him posting on "Facebook" that I'm desperate. I'm a dog or a rat for acting the way I did for $500. But he fails to tell people that he started it. That he hit someone who's sick and weak to the point where he can't even open a can of coke without help! I'm not even meant to be driving! And he calls me "scum"?

Oh, and don't get me wrong. It's not like he DOESN'T have the money! He does! Of course when he operates a business based on cash. Doesn't pay any overheads! Nothing.

Wow what a dogging ****

by **Punisher** » January 7th, 2011, 3:18 pm

Thanks Scott. We'll be in touch.

He's now even got his SISTER involved, messaging my wife, saying that *I'M* the dog for causing trouble and beating up her brother. I hate this shit. More so, I'm afraid my kids will get hurt!

by **BROCKYB8** » January 7th, 2011, 3:20 pm

You have my number if you need anything mate .

by **Dansedgli** » January 7th, 2011, 3:23 pm

How can a person who can't open a can of coke on his own beat up somebody?

by **ausedwagon** » January 7th, 2011, 3:26 pm

kosta most people like him wont do anything if u dont bite back for a bit. he will be too lazy to act and aslong as u dont bite at him then his mates (if he has any) will calm down too.

by **Punisher** » January 7th, 2011, 3:27 pm

Adrenalin just took over. I can't explain it but when he hit me, all I saw was RED.

its amazing what energy comes out when your defending yourself lol

by **Phoenix** » January 7th, 2011, 3:29 pm

All I'd say is to document everything, dates, names and detailed events.
Hope all turns out for the best.

by **dylby1** » January 7th, 2011, 3:32 pm

its an absolute dog act
this is why i dont do anything for cash in hand anymore, i get the money up front then do the work
hope it all works out

by **Punisher** » January 7th, 2011, 4:16 pm

Thanks guys. But I don't think he'll pay up. Sucks to be me!

by **cranners** » January 7th, 2011, 4:26 pm

I'm going through the exact same problem atm too.....mine was helping a "so called freind" out with some wheels......3 months later he doesnt talk to me, doesnt return my texts ect....ive got a solicitor lined up as we speak... :grin:

by **Felony** » January 7th, 2011, 5:19 pm

Reading something like this gives me the absolute shits, i'm sick and tired of dealing with useless pricks like this in the automotive world, they should all be shot!
Can we all go pay him a visit or what? LOL
Hope your hand and your head are both doing well mate

Cheers

I've still got my old 4 speed in the garage. You can take it if you want

by **NUT347** » January 7th, 2011, 7:49 pm

Sounds like the little prick has an attitude problem.

Play mind games, PM me for ideas.

by **Ech0_** » January 7th, 2011, 10:41 pm

This guy sounds like a complete arsehole! I definitely wouldn't do anymore cash jobs unless you get payment upfront.

Can I suggest if he works in cash dogging him to the tax man and letting them have a shot at him? They love finding out about tax dodgers and you can do it anonymously.

by **NUT347** » January 7th, 2011, 10:43 pm

Lol this ^^^

by **josh_ef** » January 7th, 2011, 10:48 pm

unfourtanetly kosta due to the mother being the only 3rd party witness they may come up with a story claiming you started the fight

thats if he decides to press charges, if he is only young (under 21) his pride is probably to broken and he will threaten and abuse but wont go much further,

then again ya might come home to smashed windows or a burnout in the street.

imo ya did the right thing and i would of done the same.

Did you win the fight?

If so then leave it at that, you certainly won't get any money out of him now. I wouldn't waste my time with small claims court for $500. If he hurts you or your family or does some damage to your property you could legally kill his entire family in front of him as retaliation.

Then forget about unless someone asks you about it then tell your version of the story. Focus on the part about winning the fight.

Is he on this forum?

Nah... he's not on this forum.

Just be careful because Ass hats like this guy (12volt custom) have a tendancy of trying to, well, I guess you could call it cyber stalking for a lack of a better word. If you have mentioned this forum to him or knows that you are a member here he might come looking for you. I hope for your sake and for your family that this all blows over soon and you won't hear anymore about it. Have you considered a retraining order. I think in Victoria they are call Violence Intervention Order. Might be worth looking into. Just keep records of everything to cover yourself.
