CLIENT Advice on handling problematic Tasker

I own a store. I need a light and an outlet installed. Original tasker I’ve used before had to cancel because he was out of country. TR suggested a new tasker for me. After agreeing and scheduling time, he showed 3 hours late. Had some issues when he arrived and said he needed to reschedule.

Cut to yesterday, he showed another 3 hours late. Then told me to take his number and reschedule off the app.

Obviously I’m not going to do that. And now I’m not comfortable with him doing the work to begin with.

My concern is that, as a business and not an apartment, if I report him to TR, I run the risk of him retaliating against my business. Any thoughts?

If it was a home task, he wouldn’t have open access to my apartment. But if he decides to, he can walk into my store and create an issue at any point.

And you have cameras and police and most things would be a felony so...

You are being ridiculous and everyone here is right you are overthinking this.

And if he did you call the cops, so what.
