A certain legal eagle is said to be under the pressure of representing his famous client.
It is not clear if the pressure is coming from his client, who has a reputation of wanting things done his way, but word has it that the legal eagle believes that he is not getting paid enough for the hard work he has been putting in.
Sources tell Pudding & Souse that he has revised his fees. It appears he did not anticipate this situation.
Boss missing
Why is a certain boss suddenly missing in action?
The union has been trying to find him, his employees are trying to find him and the courts are trying to find him; but this man is just MIA.
This is some very strange behaviour on his part since he is known for being arrogant and aggressive, especially towards his employees.
His disappearance has left people wondering if he is afraid to face the music because he knows that his high-handed actions were illegal.
But even more strange is that his sidekick, who also loved to throw her weight around, has also not been as visible as before.
As they say, if you can’t stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen!
Severed workers angry
Several of the 500 former employees of Almond Resorts who were recently put on the breadline are up in arms after discovering that they will not be getting nine months of unemployment benefits.
Apparently, the extended three-month period came to an end last month.
The workers are angry because many of them had signed up for the benefits since May and believe they should qualify.
Some of them said that Government should have been sympathetic to their situation and allowed them to be included for the additional three months because there was no way that many of them would be able to find employment.
A shocker
Many were shocked when someone threw a tantrum recently.
Apparently, the individual was not pleased with what had transpired and let their feelings be known by putting on a screw face and stubbornly refusing to accept the kind words and gestures from sympathizers.
The disrespectful behaviour obviously did not go unnoticed. But from what Pudding & Souse has been told, the individual was somewhat forgiven when it was realized that the apple did not fall far from the tree.
Cops blue vex
Several cops are not pleased that only two of their own have received promotions. They want to know what happened to the long list of names sent forward for consideration almost a year ago.
Since then several of the senior cops have retired, leaving a number of vacant positions.
Word is that some of the cops who have been acting in these senior roles for a long time are becoming uneasy about the situation.
Many are wondering if the delay has anything to do with the fact that the organization appears to be split down the middle.
