@Littlejoe ~ I've got 101 questions about the oil trade, and will be making a trip up to Williston in the next few weeks to try to get things moving. I'd love to ask you some questions if you had a moment... (?)

Ask away, Warwalk. Either here or Pm. My time there was limited, and so is my knowledge.

Lj like others said u can't recoupe for damages on truck but u already know that. If somebody owes me money n they are gonna pay at certain time I show up! Hes already scared cause he blew off meeting n then just sent text. So he knows u got pretty good idea your on to him. Depending on how much the origanal amount minus gas n oil. If its not gonna hurt u financially pay it. It's not worth the headache. I only say that from my experiences. Principal of it is another thing it's not fair n sucks that's why I don't really use employees.

Got stood up this morn for a meeting with my man, figured it would never happen? About 2 he called and asked if he could meet me. I told him to get his happy butt out here!

When he arrived I told him my greiviances. He started with some excuses, and basically I told him his actions spoke volumes. He said he didn't want me mad at him? Gave him my offer, and he said it was good? Said he'd totally forgot about the fuel/oil and using the wagon? It was 10% of what he would have made if things were on the up and up.

Wasn't in any way what I had expected??? Now I'm scratching my head in bewilderment?

He must be surprised that you aren't suing him for damages to your equipment.
You made him an offer he couldn't afford to refuse.

If you paid him more than $600 you have to give him a 1099.
Do that and you can write off the repairs to your business vehicle.
I hope the tax break covers the damages and wear & tear.

How did he blow out the rear end?

I got his SSN today, so he will receive a 1099. All repairs are deductible anyway. Can't sue him, since I hired him to operate it.

He trashed the rear end through lack of attention and normal maintenance. Equipment requires daily maintenance, and he knew this very well, as well as knew it was expected from him. If he had been doing it, he would have noticed either the twine wrapped around the driveline and into the seal, or the oil being slung on the bed and tires. Not using it till it started vibrating...it didn't happen overnight. As did several other things!

Just make sure its in writing that he is paid in full and get him to sign off on it. If you put it in the memo line clearly that is the same thing if he cashes it but I would rather have a paper saying what he is being paid and why, that both of you sign, so he can never come after you in court over it.
