Helping people out..... 08:25 - May 10 with 1265 viewsitfcjoe

.....have had someone bugging us for a job, labourer, only young with 3 young kids, desperate, will do anything, get anywhere, bla bla bla.

Lives in Woodbridge, and doesn't have his own transport which is a massive pain.....said he can get anywhere, train bus etc.

For job we could help him with this week, with view to long term it was worked out easier to get the train in, £7 a day return from Woodbridge to Westerfield.....£27 for a week pass.....had been asking for a sub so tried to help out and transferred him the money for a ticket......

Was he there this morning? Can we get hold of him now? Of course not.

£27 is quite a cheap way to find out a potential employee is not going to be able to be relied upon - but pestering for a job for months, back and forth all weekend to then take that money and run.....a lucky escape I guess.

Speaking as someone who worked in hiring for 17 years, the people who say they have a family to feed and will go anywhere and do anything, won’t. Every single time.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

Lucky escape indeed. I mean where's the ambition in only stiffing someone for £27?

Completely understand your frustrations and I know from experience that people are unreliable - however might be wise to wait to see what he has to say - might have had a family calamity of something.

Although he might have spent the £27 on cider.

Altho I know someone to whom a remarkably large number of calamities used to happen, usually involving money for rent and bills getting lost. As it turned out, mainly at Ladbrokes.

Thankfully, he doesn't try that any more. It was fairly transparent even at the time.

Good Lord! Whatever is it?

£27...and, as they transferred the money, the bank details.
