Bruce owned an apartment building. He hired a maintenance manager named Tom to “make minor repairs requested by tenants such as fixing plumbing leaks, replacing light switches, and replacing broken garbage disposals.” Things worked well until Tom ordered a new refrigerator and stove for one of the apts. without consulting Bruce. Tom had given the business card Bruce printed for him to the appliance store. The card described Tom as the “Manager of Maintenance” for the apt. complex. Based on that business card, the retailer delivered the appliances.
1. Why should Bruce be bound to pay for the appliances?
2. Why should Bruce not be bound to pay for the appliances?
Bruce should be bound to pay because he made the business card for Tom. He did not instruct that Tom couldn't use it and Tom is using it to improve Tom's building. Its a work-related purchase.
ReplyDeleteBruce should not be bound to pay because he didn't personally authorize any purchases under his name

ReplyDeleteBruce should not have to pay for appliances because its not his job. He was hired to be the maintenance manager and top fix little problems around the apartments. also Tom never told Bruce about the appliances that had to be bought he gave them his business card unknown.
1.) He gave him the card to purchase the things.
ReplyDelete2.) He was charged for things he didnt exactly want.
Yes Bruce need to pay up the money its his business his apartment building. Everything Tom order was for his business also Bruce hired Tom to make changes in the building so thats what he is doing. But Bruce shouldnt be bound to pay because he didn't actually personally authorize any purchases under his name he just gave a Tom the card to make changes around the building.
ReplyDelete1. Bruce should be bound to the payments of the appliances because he accepted maintenance from Tom. All repairs and appliances demand payment.
ReplyDelete2. Bruce shouldn't be bound to the payments of the appliances because Tom overstepped on his end and gave appliances to Bruce that may or may not have been needed. Maybe Bruce has all of the given appliances already.
I have been apart of the high school football team. The coach has the ability to terminate me from the team if I fail to meet expectations.
DeleteBruce should pay for them because he took the maintenance from Tom. All of these repairs and appliances demanded payment.
ReplyDeleteBruce shouldnt have to pay because Tom went too far with his side and was giving appliances to Bruce.
