Hi
Need the collective wisdom and experience here about a situation I had.
Did a multi-day hire with an experienced guy that I've seen multiple times over the years, including other multi-day hires. Splurge on a great room in a nice tourist town, airfare, and he was quite excited too with lots of build up chats. Because of our history and trust he received his fee upfront. Unfortunately after the first day he got some kinda of food poisoning and was not well for the next 2 days. He never offered apology or any kind of compensation for his fees that he already received (like taking some off, offering free time next time, etc).
Should he have? I realized it wasn't his fault per se to get sick, and it was kinda up to me to raise it, but thought with our history he would have (he's a great mature guy, hence my level of trust)???
Thoughts??
