The landlord of the building where I work has just fired the security guard (technically he hasn’t renewed his contract). Apparently he has a tendency to hire a guard on contract for 3 months, then terminate the contract on very short notice (in this case Monday is the last day), and avoid paying UIF etc, even though it is clearly a permanent position.
The slimy landlord cliche can be annoying, especially as I’m a landlord too, but it’s deserved way too often. Luckily this time there’s an attorney willing to get involved, and with a number of us watching the outcome I’m sure he won’t get away with this. Apparently the landlord is fairly notorious in the diamond industry (a dirty industry I refuse to support – hence Anique shouldn’t hold her breath for a diamond ring!), but that’s all heresay. Perhaps an expose in one of the papers once the details are out?
You heard it here first! Watch this space….
What?!!! No diamond ring?! Look, I get the best – no other girl has got a better present then a Roberts Bird Guide interactive CD. A diamond ring is so 21st century, so cliche 🙂
