Kirby/freedom enterprises/Good Hope/Pelham alabama Kirby-freedom enterprises Encourages illegal drug use and underage drinking good hope, Alabama
I recently stoped by a place of business where there was a sign that said "hiring today" my son filled out the application for the position of a "home demonstrator" for in home maintenance systems. That evening arounf 9:30 my son recieved a call for an interview the next day. My son was told that he would be a demonstrator of these home maintenance systems and he would get paid $400.00 a week for just doing 15 demos a week. It was stressed to my son that he was Not a Salesman.....but if one of the systems sold then he would get a bonus. During the 3 day non paid training that he went through my son was told that if a customer offered him a beer or weed or anything like that...then he was encouraged to partake with the customer as long as he did not get sooooo smashed that he could not close the deal... MY SON IS 17..I was recently told that the unmarked white van the "kids" ride around in has no insurance and it has no tag,,,can anyone help me get a good lawyer? My son workes from 9am till 11pm sometimes untill 1am. For $70.00 a week. isnt there some kind of law against that? Can anyone help me.

Look anywhere on the internet, and you will find complaint after complaint after complaint on these thieves. The Kirby company does nothing but take. They take from their "employees", and they take from the customers. People need to start standing up, and contacting their State Attorney Generals, and contacting their state labor departments. That is the only way to shut these criminals down. As far as your individual case and situation go, I would also contact a lawyer if I was you. There were many laws broken here, and these people need to be held responsible.

This is a continue of my last report.
I have witnesses to these facta who are willing to come forward about this issue. One person is 20 and was offered a beer by a customer and was told by the boss (James newton) to drink it because it may cost them the deal if they dont.
I was never contacted concerning my son signing any paperwork. When I found out what my son was told I told my son he was no longer allowed to work for them.
I went by the business and took pictures of the Van and it does not have a tag, Their home office is MARKUS QUINN FREEDOM ENTERPRISES IN PELHAM ALABAMA, the KIRBY business in Good Hope is run by James Ryan Newton (southeastern enterprises) AKA NCG d/b/a FREEDOM ENTERPRISES.
The man who told my son about the drugs was David V. thats all I know his name to be. at one time my son would be on his 13th demo and he would be given time off for A JOB WELL DONE, He was told that he would be given the additional demos but he never received them therefore he never received the $400.00 as promised.
I have much more evidence concerning a case against James Ryan Newton including attempted rape, and assault on the 60 year old maintenance man employed by James, but I will not go into that unless necessary. James Newton is also driving on an expired license.. I cannot find an address on this business but they are located in Good Hope next to Grandmas Car wash in a building with a red hand painted sign that says HIRING TODAY" You cant miss it.
UPDATE as of 5:30 this evening 11-2-11 the 19 year old owner of the KIRBY business in Good Hope Alabama southeastern enterprises AKA NCG d/b/a FREEDOM ENTERPRISES JAMES RYAN NEWTON has been arrested for being a non-registered sex offender. Markus Quinn from the Pelham office of KIRBY/FREEDOM ENTERPRISE will be posting his bail.
