I've got several ideas, and am considering doing a few if not all of them.

The first is that I'm calling the AZ State labor board. I don't think this will help, but I'm hoping that it might.

It should. I had to do it in the past with an employer. The key is that you've turned him in for a violation and now they have a record of it.

The second is that I'm going to start a letter writing campaign to all of the venues he has contracts with, and ask them to drop him, and explain why they should.

NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! If you do this, then it can come back to bite you in the ass!!! He can accuse you of trying to slander him and many other things.

The third is that I'm considering posting an ad on Fark, with his office numbers, fax numbers, email, website, and personal cellphone number (most of that information is freely available at his website), asking people to give him a call, and help him remember to send my check.

Again, NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! That would be harrassment. And he would be able to prove it and use it against you.

The fourth is that I'm writing an article about the deplorable state of event security, and why your kids aren't safe at concerts, to be published in the AZ Republic, should they pick it up.

I disagree with it, but it is not as bad as the previous two. Keep in mind, anything you say should be true and PROVABLE. If not, you are just slandering and harrassing him.

So what do you guys think, should I do this stuff? I really want to get this guy, not only for me, but for everyone else he's ripped off, or is going to rip off in the futute.


The best option is just to turn him into the state agencies. If he has done things like you say he has, then they can do more harm than you can. Be prepared to prove through timesheets what he owes you. Once they start investigating, who knows what else they will find.

DO NOT turn this into a personal revnege scenario. It can only come back to haunt you.
