Ex Employer

[Iron Fist]

The contract was not worth the paper it was written on, I had it checked before I did what I did and if they did sue me what would it get them as I said I donr have any money, no one can make me do the work. So where would it get them legal bills and we if they did try to make me pay em as I said I have no money and no assests to speek of.

Have they offered you any money to do the work, or are they expecting you to do it for free?

 

[Iron Fist]

To do it out of the goodness of my hart for free and it pissing me off all they keep doing is texting and emailing as I said I have set the mail server to delete messages from them with out them getting to me so now all they do is txt and ring me. If this carrys on I am tempted to get the police in for harisment.

Have you tried what others suggested and asking for money to complete the work? If they want it done badly enough they may consider paying to get the job finished off.

Sounds like you've got the opportunity to make a killing here if you want to.

I mean, are we talking months, weeks, days, hours? Is it a massive undertaking or something you could finish off quite easily?

 

[Iron Fist]

I would take me a few weeks but with other commitments I have now I can't do it.

You don't give all the details about why you left - if your busy working for somebody else etc,etc.

But you really want to draw a line under this - you've checked your contract and they've got no hold on you. So it's simple - offer to do the work for a fee, or report them to the police for harassment. The choice is yours.

I would suggest they have a cheek .

But you may love this story .A chap i knew was an overhead crane driver in a foundry .
His job went in a round of redundancies .So he had some time off .Then registered with an agency .They placed him in a position ,in the factory he had worked at driving the same crane .He thought it was hilarious and stayed there years after ..You coudn't make it up .

Thats a bloody joke...and the banks are supposed to employ jerks ?

It's not that rare Yenrod, I worked in an office full of people who had all been made(hansomely,£££'s) redundant by a well known petrochemical company. They were all taken back on by an agency - some even self employed - if you take in the manual workers still in the plant, there were hundreds.
