A Singaporean man posted on Reddit asking whether he was in the wrong after six months of work for a friend's business, with his friend refusing to pay him for the work he did. According to the man, he was initially hired to assist with operations at two businesses owned by his friend but ended up spending the majority of his time on one of them, Company A. He claimed that around 80% of his time was dedicated to Company A, and he was regularly asked to handle other tasks such as client interactions and sales pipeline management.
While he was paid for Company B, the friend refused to pay him for Company A due to the unfinished projects. The man believed he should still be compensated for the time and effort he dedicated to the business, despite the change of priorities. He sought opinions on Reddit, wondering whether it was reasonable for him to expect payment for the work he performed or if his friend had a valid reason not to pay him.
