  1. No offence meant scrumpot, But your making this more complicated than it is. I just want to get paid for the work I had done, Thats all, i got offered work and took it, regardless of whether you or other people think i did the right or wrong thing by doing so, IMO... (read again) IMO myself and the dz owner entered a contract, shook hands on it, and when i did the work he promised to pay me.... and has not... Thats it!! Here's a couple of emails.. minus names etc But either way maybe this thread has lost its point a little, i know i was a wally for taking someone by there word and not chasing them up on things, and life does go on, i'm not a liar or a cheat, just out of pocket for a couple of grand... ish... and was looking for advice.. Hey DZO, My girlfriend still did not get my last couple of pay cheques, I don't know if you have sent them, or not or what..] If theres a problem like your lawyer has said don't send them or we might get in the shit, or maybe you think i don't deserve them, or maybe moneys tight... then let me know, they i can just write the money off.. and get on with life... More importantly, i can't get hold of ......... i have somone who can bring my stuff out next month, but he has not responded to my emails... not a little, has something happened to him, or my gear?? Is he ok?? I know ........... is a great guy, which is why i'm surprised that he has not gotten back to me, so i'm thinking the worst..... so i'm hoping somone can awnser an email and be upfront with me. thanks for your help i hope. Hey Disgruntaled employee, I am on the pay cheques ......., I will be in the office in the morning and have ......... print me a report. As for the other shit, I have no clue. I know I gave a base rig and a sports rig to ....... mom. ----------------------------------------- hey DZO, Hope your well, pissing down with rain in ......... at the momment, but i guess its only just spring.... Did you come any closer to issuing some more cheques for me?? Or finding out if your payrole thinks i earnt them Much obliged hey DZO, Still have not heard from you, maybe you have forgotten!! In all seriousness its as embarrassing for me, to look like i'm begging you to get paid what is owed... as it must be for you?? Its also pretty disappointing, do i need a lawyer? i'll give it a week, and then phone you. thanks ---------------------------------------------------------- Oh buddy, I just read your last email..You know lawers dont scare me. I can only help you with the pay part of the puzzle. If that's money you earned then you deserve to be paid. Like I said above, I am on this
  2. err no your wrong.... HB2 VISA. It is the employer which first has to apply for a Form I-129 Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker and then if you are currently in the US of A no visa is required, if approved. (i've made that sound a lot more simple than it is, but it gives you the general idea) So it kind of was and HB2 is based on different criteria... again i'm not saying it was easy, or even possible, just telling you what who and where.. Again anything is possible just time and money is needed. No his lawyer was meant to be "on it" Yeah i have no rights, i agree... although i do have the right to ask others advice!! No i don't have a ban, and no i was not deported, I was refused entry for being in the country for more than 6 months in a year 1. not good at forgiving or forgetting.... but 2. reporting him to the imigration police and screwing him for $20 000, seems pretty extreme, even for me... 3. I Might Come back to the united states one day... and i'm hoping that he might read this and realize that he's being a bit of an asshole... plus i dod want to be employed again one day :) Again thanks for the advice... but there shall be no public "shite dzo" Outing from me...
  3. I've got a lot of advice and PM's from a lot of people about this, and I can't thank you enough... It's good to get a bit of surport on this... I should have given a bit more information, but understandably i Did not want to give away who i was, as a lot of people knew where i was working last year. I put a advertisment out on DZ.com that i was looking for a job anywhere in the world, but did not have a visa for america, so if i was offered a job I would need that to happen... I got contacted by a few dz's who offered me work state side, and who were prepared to go though the legal route and sponsor me to come in... providing i would give them 1 year upwards of my time. I chose this dz, because it happened to be near where i was currently travelling, and it sounded super busy.. The dz had sent me an email, telling me it would be sorted and sent to the lawyers pffoce to deal with, but it turned out he never bothered, although in my naivety I should have checked and pushed harder to find out what was going on... but i was a new tandem master, and excited just to be working... so i kept my head low... Every 3 months i left the country, to get a new visa, and legalize myself again, but on the 2nd time, i got stopped, and told that as no visa application had been submitted from an employer i would be refused entry.. yeah it kind of blew.. Anyhow, i got another email telling me he would do everything to help me out, and sort out the situation, unfortunately he did not bother... then the pay cheque thing came, and you know the rest of the story.... postal strikes, in the post, its being sorted, etc etc... So this is my fault as much as anyone's, i was a little bit dumb to think that Texans were men of there word, and even stupider to work without making sure my visa was real and in place... I'm going to get some advice from a lawyer, and see if that helps any... but i have a feeling its money i have just worked hard for that has vanished... thanks all again...
  4. So what would you do?? I'm owed a couple of weeks work, and still have not been paid nearly a year later... its been promised on many occasions, cheques been posted all that bullshit, but now he's being a cock!! How have other Instructors dealt with this in the past?? I don't want to out them publicly as then i look like "that Guy".. and I don't think it'll do my future employment any favors.. is it worth getting onto the USPA, or just getting a lawyer, give me some help here?? I have no idea, no ones ever shafted me before... i'm nowhere near the DZ anymore so all correspondence has been done by email and phone calls. but i will do what i have to, to get paid.. and this is a turbine DZ, that makes good money!! Thanks
