I'd go back in there with a nice happy face and sit down with the new owners. Then I would remind them that Florida just passed a law where you can bring your guns to work, and that alot of employees are card carrying NRA members and they might want to rethink their policy before upsetting them. Then I would say guess how many gators are in the water traps, they sure do get hungry, one time we had a golfer just up and disappear, we were never able to find him, we think Big Green on the 8th hole might have gotten ahold of him. And by the way, we also have to lay new sod on the 11th hole and could you imagine if someone got buried under that, they would never be found, after all who excavates a golf course ?, heck, Hoffa could be there and we would never know it. And do you know what the great thing about this place is that you bought ?, it runs itself, like you were never here, or had to be here. Then say Have a nice day and hope we can talk again soon.
I bet this might get them to thinking.
But if this doesn't work, you have to do the small claims court thing in FLA, to get an employer who stiffed you.
