I started working for Skyhigh Marketing in mid November 2007. I went through the first and second interviews, and went on the day of observation. When I found out that it was business-to-business direct sales I thought it was a bit wierd, but the "leader" that I was assigned to made it seem interesting. Just like everyone else, I didn't know what the business was about until my day of observation. I decided to work for them until I got another job for which I went to college for, just because I needed to pay the bills.
It was an interesting experience until I went on my first road trip. A group of us went to Roanoke to sell Car wash vouchers. Needless to say, I came back with a lot less money than I left with. The motel room and all the gas and food expenditures we had to pay out of pocket. A few weeks later, Jason Phillips, the main owner of Skyhigh announced he was leaving to relocate to Miami and Robin Curley, the other owner, would be taking over.
A few weeks later, I had to take a few days off to take care of some personal matters. When I returned after taking off of work for a week, everything was different. Robin, the new owner, as well as everyone else gave me the runaround when I would ask what I missed. I even tried to talk to my "Leader" numerous times, but he would not answer any of my questions.
About a week after I returned to work, the work hours changed and no one in the office could be found. I asked the guy from Champion Marketing, the company Skyhigh shares the office with, and he said that everyone had gone and left and I was late. That was after I had called to verify the new office hours. After telling me this, he gave me my merchandise. Why does another company control merchandise that is not theirs? I accepted it, then 5 minutes later I returned it to him after I decided to leave the company.
Now it is a month later, and the check that I requested from my "security account" is nowhere to be found, as well as skyhigh marketing. No one will tell me where the company relocated to or how I can collect the money that I earned.
So here I am, no check and no way to find out where Skyhigh Marketing or Core Advertising is now operating. I will not let this stand. They will either pay me what is owed, or pay for my check, lost wages, and the laywers I am about 5 seconds away from hiring.
