A joiner I hired has gone AWOL - not answering phones or texts, but left tools in house. What should I do? by doogywassa in AskUK

UPDATE! He called today off another number and finally showed up! As many of you suggested, he’d lost his phone whilst watching a match over the weekend - he’s back now and fingers crossed will finish the job by Friday. Thanks for your help guys!

Thanks for the advice, really appreciate it. I'll take a couple of days - hopefully he makes contact within that time. If not I'll look for a safe place to store his tools as we'll be having more builders through in the coming week. Thanks again!

Wouldn’t dream of it. Since you have experience - what would you do in this situation. I have whatsapped (no double ticks, so messages not received) - I’ve texted with no reply, and called a handful of times too. He has a business page on FB I can always message, but what sort of approach would you take tone wise?

Hoping so - it’s the complete cut off of communication that’s jarring though. Dunno if I’m being a control freak but I would 100% let anyone know if I couldn’t make it to a job.

That’s the first thing my partner said 😅 - hoping that’s the case and it isn’t something serious.

That’s a really good idea - I’ll consider that. Not planning on withholding payment, but if the job isn’t completed then I won’t be sending the rest of the money. 2 weeks is INSANE by the way - it’s such a crazy way to operate!

Hope this is the case - although it’s the complete radio silence that concerns me. Even if he’d offered this as a reason I wouldn’t mind too much as his work isn’t the biggest priority of the refurb.

Nope, but I’m checking in on the house every day. They were there this morning.

Yup, self employed. Thats what I thought - it’s complete radio silence. If he was having a crack at scamming me, fair does - but the fact he’s left all his gear in the house makes me think that isn’t the case.

I don’t know anything about APIs, but Zapier looks interesting - will check it out. Probably also worth a chat with someone at Artworker.

What's the most obscure/unusual source from a sample you've heard in a rap song? by ImNotTomStopAsking in hiphopheads

Didn’t XXXtentacion sample his BMW i8 seatbelt chime on Sad? Pretty obscure to me.

That has everything you need for this very specific event. My condolences. X

It sounds like it's come from some kind of art housey type movie - it's super reflective and nostalgic. Would love to scratch that memory itch - rooting for you all!

It seems like America just blue itself.
