Worked for this one guy for over a year as helper in renovations. Then he told me he has more projects coming up and we need a new guy to work with us and help us. So he found a guy Newly immigrated with Zero construction experience so I had to actually teach him whats where how to use tools etc. Everything looked all right to me until one day he texted me and told that there is no more work for us to do even though I knew he is lying and I know for a fact that he still works with that new guy thru our mutual friend and FB pictures(lol). That's that, no notice, no insurance (self-employed) no income, no savings.
I feel like my story is lacking a climax but this exactly what happened to me.
