Jay,
You and I both agreed way back in March of this year that we
would work with each other for 50.00 to 75.00 an hour and you requested 4x8 ft.
of storage. We agreed upon that. I can go back through every invoice and we
rarely hold to our word of 50.00 to 75.00 an hour and we both know you are
comfortably enjoying far more than 4x8 feet of storage space at my location.
I am of the opinion that we have had this conversation too
many times. Possibly you don’t hear me or you don’t care to hear me clearly.
This is again not what we agreed on and I have decided to be finished with this
arrangement.
Because, I am a
gentleman, and wish you no harm, I will fulfill your commitments with your
clients regardless of your inability to keep your commitments with me. I will
perform the duties outlined in the proposals you have sent over as an attempt
at good faith, under the following conditions. The total of these three Jobs is
1335.00 it is obvious that these are again very low numbers, so I would assume
this low pricing would definitely fall under the prepaid discount arrangement
and should be forwarded immediately. The last of the three jobs strikes on
October 3rd, So I am formally requesting that you make arrangements
to pick up your inventory Of 21 4x6 BBD’s and 22 4x8 BBD’s and 1 4x6 whiteboard,
legs, carts, straps, tarps, ramps, trailer and assorted items regarding this
operation soon after the date of October 3rd 2012. In an effort to
no longer inconvenience me with your inventory, without compensation or ability
to earn from it. Please have it all relocated before noon Friday the 5th
of October 2012
It is unfortunate that this has to be the end of our
venture, but I find this exit plan necessary as a result of our inability to
keep with our original compensation agreement. If I had understood clearly what
the real deal was going to be, I would have never considered attempting this
venture. I have patiently waited for our arrangement to be as advertised, it’s
clear that our agreement is not going to be fulfilled; therefore I am left with
no other choice, but to stop this charade.
I believe I have been clear and honest with you and my
unhappiness concerning the actual compensation, the actual requirements for the
warehousing of the inventory and the actual volume of the workload. This exit
plan should come as no surprise to you.
I understand that it is difficult to operate a small
business in any economic time and the challenges for you in today’s business
world must be even more challenging. Having said that, this venture has not
been economically successful for myself, regardless of my attempts to make it
work for the both of us. Possibly the lessons learned from these last handful
of projects will benefit you going forward addressing the actual requirements
for a Los Angeles office.
Please let me know your intentions going forward, so I may
make my plans accordingly,
Respectfully,
Joe Dallacqua
Jays Letter 9-27-2012
Just in case you have
trouble opening or reading any of the emails or invoices I have placed
everything in this email on the web at http://asjoeseesit.blogspot.com/
Jay,
9-27-2012
Last week, I
agreed to complete the remaining projects on the condition you paid the jobs.
You didn't send a check and I completed the Cedars job out of good faith. I
asked if you could get your inventory by October 5th, you now want to pick up
in an additional week and I guess you figure I should complete the job on the
2nd of October as well. The only reason that this project has continued as long
as it has, is my continually giving to the operation, trying to make it work. That
trying to make it work is done. I’m done giving.
Your best
reply is to this whole thing is “it’s too difficult to figure out what will
work”
Next time you
are in a similar situation and can’t figure out what to do, try honoring your
original agreement and be clear what your actual storage requirements are. If
you remember our agreement, you stated it and I agreed. This reason we are at
this place is because you choose to not keep your word. It is your responsibility
we are here. Honor your word and none of this happens.
I want to be
paid, as I stated in an email last week, (9-19-2012) before I keep your
commitment with your client ISCTM on
Tuesday of next week. I want full payment on order 212195-C and the already completed Cedars job order
212226 immediately. I have already sent you the adjusted invoices.
If I don’t
have these payments in my Bank of America account by the close of business Friday 9-28-2012, I will be left with
the only option I have. I will, first thing Saturday morning place all of the
inventory, carts, legs, straps and the trailer and any other items involved in
a storage facility of my choice, here locally and I will pay for one months of
storage and mail you the key to the lock with the address and unit number. You
can pick up the inventory at your convenience and on your schedule or choose to
pay the monthly fee for storing your items. Regardless of what you choose to do
with the items in storage, I will be clear of the responsibility and burden of storage
of your items and done with this deal.
You have imposed too much, caused too much aggravation and have kindly
insulted me too many times. The only requirement from you was to honor your
word.
There is no
need to reply to this email, your actions are simple, deposit 1055.91 in cash:
to my Bank of America account before 6 PM Friday 9-28-2012 or don’t.
If the
deposit is made, before the close of business Friday, I will honor your
commitment and handle order 212195 on Tuesday and you can pick up your
inventory on the 9th of October. If not, you can wait for the key and address
of your inventory sometime next week and handle order 212195 anyway you
choose.
Unless you
honor our agreement immediately, your inventory will not be located on this
property one day longer. You have enjoyed a tremendous amount of storage for an
extended period of time without consideration. Without the payment I have
described, your inventory will be stored on your dollar and no longer my
responsibility.
In an effort to make not make this “too difficult for
you” I have included turn by turn directions to the nearest Bank of America and
fortunately it is only a half a mile from your doorstep.
So in the case your
vehicle is as broken as your computer is, you can walk and still take care of
your responsibilities.

point.
Please I have
experienced enough from this entire matter. A phone call from you will only
make it worse.
I have made
myself as clear as possible. It’s up to you what happens at this point.
