A hiring scout for Goodwill is suing the charity for refusing to hire and pay him for the "suitable persons" he found to work.
Sometime in October of 2006 he and Goodwill entered "into a valid and enforceable oral contract." The parties agreed Smith would find 32 suitable persons for Goodwill to employ. They also agreed Smith would locate places for Goodwill to rent as "drop-off locations."
