TheEventLine.com's perfect BBB record, perfect insurance safety record, guaranteed best pricing and selection and one million users in 2011 may be the best indicators.

Jeremy Schrader, fired for cause 2 years ago continues to obsess over the Company. He never met this string's writer (who lives 250 miles from him) and has never had "inside" information about matters 6 months ago. He continues to claim he is on a first name basis with Company owners while they do not know him - only meeting him 2 years ago in passing (the warehouse he worked at was 30 miles from the offices). His postings have been filled with hate and profanity. He brags on both his strings he is proud of the his dishonesty and false statements. No business can have such an employee.

Jeremy Schrader, the Company has asked you to stop and is taking action against you. You must contact DeFranco & Bradley, P.C. immediately to mitigate the damages you have caused. (618) 628-2000 ext. 216. If you choose not to do so, no later reduction can occur.

We understand our growth concerns competitors and our dismissal of unsatisfactory employees may result in hostile, false web reports. But we will continue to remove any employee who does not meet our customers needs or breaks the law. The Company's perfect BBB record, perfect insurance safety record, guaranteed best pricing and selection and one million users in 2011 may be the best evidence.

Thank you.

Bob,

Why would someone willingly contact your lawyer. Isn't that their job. Quit trying to scare these posters. Even if it came to the point where courts would be involved you wouldnt leave your basement for trial anyway. Oh I'm sorry "offices". Its free speech anyway. Do movie producers sue critics for bad reviews? Like I said before you are not God. I am not JS. I will not come forth with my identify because I dont see it necessary. I started the intital ripoff report to let the truth be known about you. You have proved me right to any sane person reading this. Bob Hollingsworth is the person typing all these rebuttals. I feel success in the fact that when you type www.theeventline.com in a google search ripoff report is on the main page. I hope this hurts your business. Your business is a ripoff, thats why all this had to be done. Now go on with your robotic rebuttal.....

I'd like to thank the author of this report for his detailed, truthful account of theeventline.com's business practices. Everything written is true in my opinion, based on facts and personal experience. Bob Hollingsworth is writting all of the rebuttals claiming the company is honest and reputable. For those reading this you must ask yourself, "Why would someone go through so much trouble to try to refute these claims?" If they were false you would laugh them off. Bob is so offended because he cannot stand for the public to realize the scam that is theeventline.com. How many weddings have been ruined? How many events have turned out to be less than advertised? How many employees have been cheated and misled? Hopefully anyone researching this company will see these warning and do their own research before contributing to this scam.

The Company will disagree with this terminated employee and the one other posting he and his fellow ex-employees have created to say they were too good to be terminated. TheEventLine.com has 4 warehouses in 3 major cities. Over 1 million people used our equipment last year - dwarfing most others. Our growth exceeds 25% per year for good reasons - best selection, best price and best service. To assure this, we do have a strong "trend" of removing poor performing employees. We will review being more gentle in our approach, but we just will not keep persons that cannot get jobs done on time, cannot get along with customers, have drug issues or have problems with integrity or honestly.

Customers are always invited to visit any of our warehouses before their event to make sure what they order is right for them. You dont have to accept the "he said-she said" of angry ex-employee debates, they have little merit. With nearly 1,500 references on our website and over 1 million people using our equipment each year, we are the only major event company to have a perfect safety record, a perfect BBB record, to give free PAR dispute mediation while maintaining a 25%+ annual growth. Not everything goes right, but most do. When something goes wrong we fix it. This may mean terminating poor performing employees and their being upset about it. The Company will do what it takes to make sure our customers receive the best service and best selection at the best cost.

Chad Ayres, the writer, as an experienced, educated manager would know the seriousness of business interference especially in light of his signed employment contract. Looking at all the manipulations and dropped facts in his letter confirms the reasons he was terminated. Now, eight months later he complains it was the equipment's fault, he wasn't paid correctly and others were mean to him. Both the manager before him (whom he calls a drug addict) and the manager after him (now with nearly twice Mr. Ayres time on the job) had none of the problems he had. None of the other current 5 warehouse managers and directors had such problems, all with the same equipment. Rather than correct himself, he blames everything and everyone but himself.  Mr. Ayres can call his failure to show up for an exit interview "resigning" - it makes no difference, the termination was decided weeks before and was properly documented. His leaving a few weeks early with the "fraternity brothers" he hired for summer jobs impacted no event and no customer. With 3 other warehouses to draw from, we can support any event or replace any operation entirely without missing a beat.

We agree that Mr. Ayres previous experience as a tent laborer [but (1) for a company so small it is not BBB listed, (2) in operation only half as old as he stated and (3) not for 11 years as he claimed--he would have been 13] and college degree is what got him a job with us, however, the Company discovered it had not taught him how to get along with people or the work ethic needed to keep a job. The Company quickly learned he was far too young and inexperienced to handle the responsibilities and his college degree had done little to prepare him for the real business world. But it was his combative nature that caused our customers extreme dislike of him - including 2 serious confrontations with customers, one in which law enforcement had to be called. This is what lost him his job. Blaming equipment and others for his poor behavior and performance is shameful. None of our other 5 warehouse managers and directors ever had such problems and all voted he be removed, it was a team decision. We are a people business and absolutely could not allow him to continue.

Chad Ayres calling a former manager a drug addict and thief in this public forum is despicable and demonstrates his lack of personal and business integrity. His thought he can repeat it by blaming another is unconsionable. Mr. Ayres had no access to manager employee files and nothing other than termination due to failure to obtain drug testing was ever discussed. He may not voice his interpretation of this as meaning "drug addict" and "thief". We do not know why he falsely stated his start date (March 2 not January 28) and contrary to his remarks the Company has no unpaid debts, no lawsuits, no unpaid wages, no BBB claims and no DOL claims. A $700 bill was settled for the $700 contracted a few months after Chad Ayres termination and the nearly $2000 bill Chad attempted to have paid was rejected after collusion was alleged. No $1300 agreement was ever made and the Company's major shareholder never spoke to this reputable business as Mr. Ayres claimed ("Bob" isn't paid by and doesn't work for the Company has Mr. Ayres knows). Mr. Ayres thought the Company would pay 3 times the contract with no previous discussion or approval, even though his reputable business had no business street address, no State DBA or Entity record and was not licensed to operate in either its home state or our business state. Yes the bill was held until fully clarified and the Company made sure no conflict of interest existed. Once this was understood, the amount contracted was paid and accepted by the vendor as payment in full.

Mr. Ayres also falsely claimed a tent he set up exactly as before was knocked down by a storm because of poor materials. He failed to mention he had not set this tent before, this tent had been used dozens of times before and after his failed installation, or that he filed a written report saying it was the storm and not a materials problem or installation problem. He also failed to say that a larger tent was given to the customer and setup immediately and no refund or credit was requested or due. A later request for storm damage to vendor shelving was denied because the customer had their own insurance and did not purchase it from the Company. An educated and skilled manager knows how insurance works. Mr. Ayres also discovered you cannot misrepresent wages to the Department of Labor and get their support. The wage structure is fully detailed in the employee manual that every employee receives and signs off on their understanding and acceptance of. There is no not disclosed or I didnt know that. Mr. Ayres signed off as did every person working for him. Every employee has always received what both sides agreed to in writing and no employee will receive unsubstantiated, falsely inflated amounts. Their not receiving bonus wages for poor performance and during overtime is carefully detailed and in full compliance with wage law. Our customers will not bear these false costs nor should they be expected to.

Notice to Mr. Chad Ayres:  You have written you have Company records in your possession. These must be returned and any copies destroyed. This and company equipment you allegedly have not returned are valued above the felony level. False or fraudulent statements, unauthorized disclosures, non-interference and non-compete defaults also violate your employment contract. We have attempted to be forgiving to you, but this has not worked. Please contact DeFranco & Bradley, P.C. immediately to avoid further action against you. (618) 628-2000 ext. 216. We need a complete return of everything you had and were responsible for. Significant penalties exist all that you yourself signed off on. If you need a copy of the employee agreement to review your responsibilities, please visit the employee website to download a copy. Seek the advice of legal counsel as you will not be permitted to continue these false and misleading statements or business interference. The Company believes you did more than enough damage during your short tenure but hopes for your success in the insurance sales career you have now chosen. It should be noted your current company has quite a few warnings about it on the web. We doubt they are completely true also.
