>I've sent an email and I'm going to comfront the asshole tomorrow. I realize it's not a huge amount of money - but I just moved back from Hawaii and that is me and the girls rent! I'm lucky one of the twins had some money tonight - I found out about this trying to pay for our dinner tonight and my c-card was regected! I am so mad I can't even see straight - and to top it off the girls are sleeping on the couch tonight!

>Has anyone else out here had a problem with this jerk - and does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle someting like this (other than sending a couple of thugs to his office)?? DAMN!

1. Calm down. Emotion won't win you your money.
2. Lawyers are not emotionally involved. At least, consult with one before you go head to head with this guy,
3. Engage a lawyer who will work for a percentage of recovered cash
4. Do not slander your former boss.
