In the contract is says the cost of a pager is around 45 or 50.00 or something like that.
I believe small claims court is anything over 300.00
I'm curious as to why you would be embarassed because the company wants the money that's owed to them, and they are apparently charging you interest on that money.
Did you in fact really have the pager? Did you think you were supposed to keep it after you were done with it? Surely you didn't. On the surface, it sounds like you were trying to stick it to the company.
To the person who owed $300+ on the uniforms, did you think you weren't responsible either? Come on give me a break.
Because of that kind of mentality, the rest of us cannot payroll deduct any of our uniforms.
If you owe somebody money, they shouldn't have to come to you to get it.
Have you ever lent some money to a friend? If the friend didn't pay you back, after confronting the friend, would it **** you off if the friend said, "Well you never came to me to get it, so I figured you didn't want your money back that I borrowed"?
