My brother was working in Northern California, picking up odd jobs here and there, when he landed himself a decent employment contract with a construction agency. We all thought that this was a great chance for him to learn some construction skills although we wondered how it was that he got hired on at a construction company when he didn’t have any experience doing that kind of work.
Well, it turned out that it was one of those situations that was too good to be true. The construction company really didn’t know what it was doing and wasn’t even licensed to do the work that it performed. It’s a really long story but basically a series of unfortunate events related to the work landed my brother in some hot water. He was arrested because of some injuries that were caused by faulty construction.
It ended up being okay. We went up there and bailed him out. That’s a whole other story that involved a trip to a bail bonds San Francisco agent, a bail bonds Santa Rosa agent and finally a bail bonds San Jose agent. But we did get him out and we got the legal troubles cleared away. Still, the mess haunts him and getting a new job has been tough for him ever since.
