Tuition Painters - Paul Flick
Deception, lies, bounced checks, unpaid wages, unethical practices

I worked as a District Supervisor in 2009. If you have been selected to work for them in 2010 it is not to early to stop. I made the mistake of reading these complaints, asking my "regional supervisor" about these complaints. I was fed lies that every single one of these people was basically either full of it, or they were not hard workers and couldn't do the job. I, sadly, was gullible enough to buy these lies. After attending the first training weekend, which I spent about 200 dollars on, I started to realize something wasn't right. I had a good feeling that all these complaints were the same situations I was going to be in, but instead of stopping I was hooked feeling like I already had to much time and effort into it. Believe me, stopping now will save you a lot of money and heartache, plus the embarresment of being taken advantage of to this degree. I had a crew of three hard workers, who I tried to take good care of and treat fairly, but it is nearly impossible to do that when all of their checks and my checks bounced. After booking and completeling 18,000 dollars in contract (I didn't finish the summer because I wasn't receiving good checks nor were my painters) I received a grand total of 1,200 dollars. That is a little over 6%, of what I sold. I had right around 2,000 dollars in checks which bounced and I was fed reasons all summer on why this was happening. It is January now and I have been working with the police to get my money out of Paul Flick. I was just informed they were closing the case. I was not offered a reason. Issuing bad checks is unlawful at a criminal level. Yet, somehow my criminal case against him got no where. I worked 10-16 hour days all summer long including weekends. There is nothing that tuition painters gives you that you can't do for yourself. I never once actually used my regional supervisor. He wasn' t helpful to me at all. All he did was hound me about sending them the checks that I would never see again. One of my painters won a case and received all the money he had worked for all summer. My two other painters at this point are still missing around a thousand dollars. Looking back on my summer I learned a lot, but nothing that I thought I would learn. I've learned our criminal justice system and civil court system is worthless. A man who blatently takes advantage of college kid and has absolutley no remorse is able to get away with this year after year. Help put him out of business and keep him from doing this to anyone else. You can help by stopping now if you are selected to be a DS. I was in your possition this time last year and I was blinded by the lies they fed me. The best decision you could make would be to stop. Why else would there be so many complaints about him and this company? You will be no exception he will do the same things to you he does to everyone else. There is another kid from my college who went to training with me and the same thing happened to him. You have the option now to stop, but everything you do for them will make it harder and harder to stop and you will wind up like I did this summer. Please listen to this and do not believe their lies. I just don't want anyone to have to go through and feel the way I feel about this.
