Re: How Do You Handle Customers Who Don't Pay?

Way back when a man I used to work for doing barn repair work was the craziest person I ever knew. There wasn't any repair or fix he would not try to do. Many years later, AFTER I left his employ he told me one day, that he had repaired storm damage on a local farmers barn roof and the farmer was not satisfied with the work. Big surprise there. At any rate after many refusals of payment, this guy's solution was to go over there late one night and burn the place down which he did. I never saw him again nor wanted to and always thought somebody would shoot him one day. He died of lung cancer many years ago.
