Tech pay agreements
Wed, 28 Dec 2005, 07:56 pmHeya, anyone got any advise for me?
I agreed to do some casual work for a group in my local theatre who I had worked with before with no problems. I agreed to work selected hours for them and then I had arranged with them that I'd send them an email of total hours worked and my address for them to send a cheque too.
They say they are having money problems however said it would be fine to pay me once their ticket income had gone through but alas it is not to be. Now nearly 2 months later they are just being difficult and looking for excuses.
Has anyone else been through the same thing? This was only 10hours work I fitted in for them having done previous work with them, should I be using a contract of some sorts, verbal agreements have always worked in the past???!!!
Just call me young and stupid!! Any advise?
Thx
