[QUOTE="bbirder, post: 1450956, member: 14490"] I doubt if it is illegal. Agencies will steer clear of getting into company policies and politics. At the least he should have only charged you company cost. That is all he is out. He should not be making profit off you. Sounds like he is a worse boss then I originally envisioned. Have you spoken with the Purchasing Agent to see where this broke down. Having been in Industrial Sales for twenty years, I know many things can be done to get around a problem like that without the Boss ever knowing. At the least he should help you by contacting the vendor to see if they will accept the parts back with a restocking fee. What is company policy on employees ordering non stock items? What would they charge you? Do you get an employee discount? Also, what is your companies policy on returning non stocking items? Will they take them back for a 20% restocking fee? What if that customer had took the item and decided he didn't need it. Say he was one of the companies best customers. Would they have tried to take care of him? Sounds like everyone is walking on eggshells with this character. Does not promote a happy and productive work space. In the end this will cost him more than the $1000 dollars because others see what is happening, and will not produce for someone who does this to employees. Good Luck Cross! 30 yrs is a long time.
