<prompt> Human: I worked for a roofing contractor this last summer doing sales and getting paid on commission. My first job I sold my boss paid me 50 of what he owed me when we started the job and said he will pay me the other 50 when the job was finshed. I signed the job in June and have gotten paid on other jobs since then but he still owes me 500. I no longer sell for him because I am school and I need to get paid. I have multiple text messages of him confirming he owes me 500, he however has my employment contract. What can I do? Who do I report this too?  <response>: Send a certified return receipt letter. DONT be unprofessional in the letter, state facts, dates, where and what was agreed on and include screen shots of the texts.Close with, you do not want to involve agencies or courts in the matter, but if he chooses not honor his part, that will leave you with no alternative. Be clear, concise and follow up what you said will happen.
