Yes, I do

About 3-4 years ago I accepted a job for them. They said they paid 9 cents a line WITH spaces. When I got my paycheck, it was approximately $300+ less than what I invoiced to them. I called them and they said they did NOT pay for spaces, blatantly contrasting what they told me at hire. I know this was no mistake on my part because it's one of the first questions I ask ("Do you pay for spaces?")


It just went downhill after that. They agreed to pay the long distance charges, again discussed at hire. It took many, many emails with faxes of the phone bill to them many more times before they finally broke down and paid a PORTION of it ... which was after I told them I could do no more work for them by running up the phone bill until they honored their word and paid their portion of the LD charges (this was before the flat rate LD came around).


Did I mention that the first check was 10 days late? I had already put in my notice by the time I finally received that first check, was honoring my deal to work the next 2 weeks, and then next check was as late as the first. They gave me a BS story about having already sent it and it should be there .... 14 days after they supposedly sent it.... yeah right.


They ran up my phone bill and paid me less than agreed, and I was in a financial mess after my dealings with them. When I *loudly* voiced my frustrations with them over the phone, the owner said I needed psychiatric help and tried to degrade me for needing a measly few hundred dollars ... at least that's what I thought he was saying, as I was trying to hear him over the screaming children in the background.


So nah, I didn't like 'em.  Not at all. Wouldn't recommend them to anyone.
