Beware of piece job seekers

I had work for two people (sand-off the pavement in the yard); I then drove to pick them up where they normally sit, along the street corners in Regents Park.

Through desperation almost 20 men wanted to jump into my bakkie, I then drove away a few meters until three of them came. I told them I only have R150 for two people. They agreed that since they were three they will split the money among themselves equally.

When they were about to finish, the two guys told the third one to push for more money, they rejected the initial offer we agreed on. I still bought lunch for them. I was threatened to pay up even though we didn’t agree on the new fee.

There were three guys and I was all by myself, so be careful who you pick up, I was trying to help but I ended up with this situation.

I phone ADT for help.
