On December 9th I had a meeting off site with JR Lupo CPA of Verona, NJ where he offered me a freelance to full time position working in his company as his full charge bookkeeper. When I started the following Tuesday 12/13 I was thrown into the job without any information and his other bookkeeper whom I was replacing was out of the office until that Thursday so I had no notes to follow and did not know anything about what he wanted.
Mr. Lupo was not communicative and forced me to redo the work 5-10 times until he thought I got it right. I worked on exactly 2 clients - one client more than the other but I had little direction and was forced to defend myself verbally by him as he ridiculed my bookkeeping skills handing me a "t square" and "graph paper".
I found out later Mr. Lupo has less than a stellar reputation among other Accountants and CPA and I felt inclined to leave his employment on that Thursday 12/15 after he promised to pay me the $600 he owed me.
I have since been trying to collect and he keeps telling me he'll call me and tell me when the check is available WHEN and IF his CLIENT (the client I worked on for those 3 days) PAYS HIM. This was never our agreement and I am troubled by his nastiness and inappropriate and immoral behavior. That is why I am reporting him to RIP OFF because he is not a man of his word and I think his clients should know that.
CAUCUS EDUCATIONAL CENTER of NJ is one of his clients and so is AERO AMBULANCE is the other that I worked on. He has several others but I never got to see them as he kept me busy and scared for most of the 3 days with his bullying of me. People like him must be stopped from working with the public. He is a terrible excuse for a human being and a Christian - this is the same week as Christmas and he's stiffed me for $600 dollars!
