This client of mine is a monopoly in one of the industries in Singapore and mine you, they are cash rich! I used to supply a lot of temporary staffs to them, including one of my relatives, until one night when my client held a meeting with all my temporary staffs after the event. He tried to entice my staffs to work for him directly and offered to pay them one dollar more per hour. He also insinuated my temporary staffs to resign from my agency and join him discreetly. He has violated our agreement but I did not pursue further, instead I ended the working relationship with him a few working days after that incident.

The collection of payment was also a nightmare. They took 6 months, and still counting, to pay us and in fact, they called me up today saying that they will make the last batch of payment by this Friday, only after I wrote them an email saying that we will pass this case to our solicitors if they refused to response and pay up by the stipulated deadline.
