    Short version of work story:

    Client did a very silly thing. Client is failing to understand that the fact that he was not specifically warned not to do such a silly thing is not a defence that will hold up in court.

    Explaining this took up far too much of my day.

    oh come on

    this forum is the biggest liberal echo chamber this side of my left testicle

    let them have something

    if you can't even live alongside generally liberal people who have some conservative leanings or a distaste for the current administration... how can you even bear to inhabit a world where there are actual conservatives and xenophobes

    don't be a hostile silly goose

    kumbaya and such

    fair enough

    for perspective, remember that I live in the state where our Lt. Governer compared helping the poor to feeding stray animals and one of our reps got major points for yelling at the president that he was lying.

    I like my escape into liberal-land unsullied by their ilk

    look

    you have the hatred

    let's do this

    I'd think that increased odds of killing me with sex would be a point in the pros of dating an older man rather then the cons. Just get a life insurance policy and then fuck him to death. Win/Win.

    Explaining this took up far too much of my day.

    Long version?

    Client's vehicle was being used to tow an equipment trailer at an event. The rules of the event, as explained in the contract that they signed when they paid to attend, state that no vehicle is allowed to be moved inside the event grounds between 8am on the opening day (thursday) and 7pm on the last day of the event (the following monday), for safety reasons. If they really, really need to move the vehicle, they can inform the event organisers who will cordon off a route for the vehicle to use.

    Client's idiot driver decided they needed to get the vehicle out of the event grounds at 5am on the saturday, and instead of speaking to event security, tried to find their own way out, culminating in them trying to drive a giant pickup through the open ended marquee set up at the pedestrian entrance of the event, demolishing it in the process.

    They are seriously trying to argue that the event organisers are equally liable for failing to put height restriction notices on a marquee that nobody in their right mind would try to drive a vehicle through.

    see I spend most of my day with a slightly different argument along the lines of "So can you see how, despite your good intentions and long patience, your total lack of any evidence to the former may mean your defence to dismissing this person will not work without a stroke of luck?"

    Hey so yeah, I'm still kind of worried but not so worried, it seems I'm pretty much out of the COI loophole because I didn't start working here until a long period of time after they stopped being a customer and I didn't use any of my knowledge from my previous employee to help them.

    I actually told them from the get go I wouldn't use that knowledge to solve or fix problems, but would come up with new and innovative solutions and implement them. And it's worked and I have. So I'm pretty much out of the red in that situation right?

    My former boss would be the vindictive asshole to try and sue me for it so what does [Chat] think about this predicament?
