I've never loaned a friend or co-worker money, I just give it to them and tell them not to pay me back. That way I have never been disappointed in them.

This concept was featured in the classic movie, "A Bronx Tale."

OP, you have made 3 contacts. Let's face it, the guy cannot or will not pay you. Time to let it go and be glad the guy will never ever contact you again. Good riddance, and you got rid of him for the less than princely sum of $ 15.

Be careful where you bury him. Moving him later is no fun.

$15.00 dollars?
That's the price of a 30pak of the Champagne of Bottled Beers (in cans).
I would have to give up drinking for a whole week!!

Who am I kidding.
The grocery store takes charge cards. I'd just charge it for
this one time the 25% of my weekly allowance beer money is spent on some
useless goober who got fired. That way, the SO pays for it, and goober
has been officially written out of the inheritance.

He just got fired, I think repaying you $15 is the last thing on his mind. Consider it a wash, if he pays you back, great. If he doesn't, I wouldn't bring it up again.

Any time you can find out what a asshole someone is for 15 bucks, you got off easy.

The "just got fired" means nothing. He left a job that paid about $7 a hour more to take this job. His previous job wanted him back so in this instance your concerns are not valid.

edit== his previous job was second shift and he took the pay cut to be on first shift.

What bugs me is that you are one of the most generous people I know. What a scum bag.

I got taken and I don't like it. All it would have taken was a few words to disregard the debt but he chose to ignore the situation.

If you know his email address and home address sign him up for all sorts of sick and demented websites and catalogs.

Karma can use the help.

I've always liked the old saying: "If you lend someone $20, and then never hear from them again, it was probably worth it."

Agree to disagree. You mentioned that he got fired...some people take getting laid off okay and some take it hard. I don't believe $15 is worth this aggravation, if he ends up returning the money, cool.
