I dont want to discuss the current matter. I'm hoping to handle it privately. In regards to the issue from a year go that Marvin has brought up...I feel the need to explain since its being made into something more than it was imho...
Bluewire was hiring Marvin to work remotely at a logo designer. We had an employment contract that was fairly standard under Washington State Law. The contract had an out clause for Bluewire. The board of directors at the time voted to cancel Marvin's contract after his first month of employment for reasons that are private to that board of directors. Soley because of ME, we gave Marvin his 2nd month salary and did not require for him to report for work (paid leave), we returned his domain to him (adultcreation.com) free of charge for which we had purchased as part of his employment, and released Marvin of his commitment to have his msg board sigs point to bluewire.
That was the full situation; nothing more...nothing less. Marvin was paid for more time than he actually worked. I don't think its fair for it to be left to assumption that we screwed over Marvin and owed him any money. It was quite the contrary.
I would also like to note that I very verbally disagreed with the board decision to fire Marvin from Bluewire and I still find Marvin to be one of the top logo designers not just on GFY...but on the entire internet. I hope that the current issue about our hired out work to Marvin can be resolved nicely and privately. I don't anticipate any drama here...
