Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, A shoddy company who does not pay their employees or keep up with their bookwork Fort Worth Texas

Benjamin Franklin of Fort Worth would never withhold pay from any employee regardless of the reason for their leaving our company. What this ex-employee is failing to mention is that he was loaned a sum of money and the agreement he signed states that if he leaves the company for any reason his final paycheck will be applied to the outstanding balance. As the new owners we were not a part of the arrangement made with the previous owner but we are obligated to abide by their agreement since we purchased the company. I made every effort to resolve this by trying to help him understand why he was not due anything despite his irate behavior. After several days of threats I no longer took his calls and called the police to notify of his threats. I have mailed via certified mail all records pertaining to his employment with us to help him understand how his final paycheck was applied.

We will gladly address any concern with the labor board or anyone else that wishes to contact us. In the years we have been in business we have never had a complaint from an employee or customer with BBB, Attorney General, Labor Board or anyone else. In fact, we have never had an employee quit working for us. We value all of our employees and we understand how important they are to the success of our business. This employee only worked with us for 2 months and clearly he is upset that his employmnent was terminated.

Despite the situation I wish this ex-employee the best of luck and hope that he finds a company to work for that he will be happy.

June 10th 2009 still not paid although did recieve a call threatening that I had one hour to remove my post now they have time to talk?! filed a complaint with the attornry general , labor board, If it takes six months or longer I dont care I will get my money.Its sad that in these hard economic times companies treat people so rotten.
