Thats irresponsible too

In Reply to: smaller MTSO - Former employee

Someone who allows a medical center to get that far behind in payment without doing something about it is not a very good business person in my estimation.  You have to be firm and persistent with these accounts you cant just let your workers suffer along with you.  If someone cant keep this under some control you can bet they are going to lose their business soon anyway so its better to find a more stable job than to hang around hoping they are going to develop better business sense.


My opinion on this subject is if you are going to step into being an MTSO to begin with you should know that this is a small business and you are going to need to set aside a reserve of money to pay your workers from even if your accounts are late in paying.  Other than that you should just have very good credit.  Why cant the MTSO borrow from their own credit to pay the workers, then just immediately pay that credit back with the check from the account who owed it.  I dont understand people anymore.  Some people try to run some awfully poor businesses these days and there is no excuse for it.  Almost every Junior College has courses on small business that one can take for little or nothing.

Irresponsible?
I hope you're not referring to me.  As I clearly stated, I've only had my OWN clients in the past, clients who have sought me out and I set my own hours, TAT, etc.  This is for a company is an independent contractor who is telling me they expect me to work between certain hours yet require a minimum line count.  My question  was what do companies typically require you meet the line count in as many hours as it takes you OR that you just work solidly between those hours.  Nothing irresponsible about asking what the typical norm is for companies.
Irresponsible pet owners
This is similar to thread on the spotted board about irresponsible owners.  The posters there had sympathy for people who were careless with their pets.
Most teenagers are irresponsible
and some are just LUCKY. And they're all having sex. So there.
I would!!! I get so irritated at irresponsible dog owners (sm)
I hope you file a complaint. As someone else said, at least it will be on file.

I second the pepper spray!!! We have dogs in our neighborhood whose owners let them use others yards at their litter boxes, so to speak. I don't have dogs but have a yard full of dog doo. With kids who like to play outside, or even when MOWING! that is nasty!!!
what a joke...someone calls you on your irresponsible comment, and all you can do is
comment on their grammer. At least come up with an argument in favor of your original post........or can you?
My point is that it would be extremely irresponsible for her to have more kids in that situation. nm
