"to SO WRONG"" Not thinking this out are you?
I would terminate the person who instituted this DOCK YOUR PAY Absolutely. You are punishing the victim. She is being victimized. This is a no-win situation but the head of the department comes out better.
Say you were unfortunate to have a pimp who wanted more money, the victim was already doing 8 per hour, the pimp decided it will now be 10 per hour or you will be docked for the 8 you already did.
Say you had 6 children, worked full or part time and your husband wanted you to also care for his sisters 3 orphaned children OR ELSE. You were doing the absolute best you could do already. You don't meet the extra load, well, I will have child protective services called and take the children etc.
JiffyLube had been cited twice and fined (it is just a write off) The staff were paid on commission. they were to sell jobs to be performed or else. They did this alright, whether the job was needed or not. Well, they just did not DO not the job. Just ran the customers in and out and collected the money. See what happens. Can only accomplish so much.
I lay you odds, the MT in question is working her behind off already, MTs work soooo hard. I would start sending out resumes. This is a bad practice and shows what the head staff are like INSIDE, character and conscious are important.
no need to "do" anything. you just hire on as an IC...
or change status with current employer to IC. At the end of the year instead of a W2 you will receive a 1099. You give that to your CPA (make sure he knows about at-home businesses......very important), and keep track of all your expenses. Things that you never would have imagine are deductible....for instance, 1/10th of my square footage is my office, so I am allowed to write off 1/10th of mortgage payment (however, there are depreciation factors that go along with this), gas bill, electric bill, water bill, high speed internet, up to $6,000 per year in meals and entertainment for all those luncheons you have with prospective new clients :). There are too numerous to name here, but I think it is a win-win.
I liked the phrase "to suffer to work"
I think it pretty much sums up life! But it does also sure sound like we should be being paid for waiting for work to roll in, specifically mentioning a secretary waiting for dictation.
(I meant "had to do", not "do-do", although

They even have a school for MTs, "to help better the, I can't remember theincreasing bull...
They sent out a letter like they were philanthropists, bettering the (I can't remember what they said, it was such a joke). Great tax break for them having an office or school over there, don't believe the lies they use to excuse their behavior. You cannot make any money with these religious, I am all for humanity bull.
Thanks. I will call...Sorry, that should read are they the company that "do" ERs, not does! (
usually it's just an uproductive CYA knee jerk "do something" reaction (SM)
some supervisors like to lash the troops in turn when they get negative feedback ... others issue these blanket condemnations (suggesting their team is made up of lazy, unprofessional, dullards) to, in turn, show THEIR supervisor that they 'DID SOMETHING' ...
I wish they realized just how demoralizing these missives are ... and how often they reflect very bad new employee training and QA; lousy ongoing communication wrt to client feedback as well as changes in account specifics ... and let's not talk about obviously outdated, poorly written and/or incomplete and/or confusing and/or contradictory account specifics
oh, and then there's the cowardice of sending group memo to everyone rather than actually -- actually -- discussing the problem(s) with the offending MTs (who likely had no idea their work quality was unacceptable (or they would have fixed it).
I know supervisors are hideously overtaxed with far too many MT's and accounts to oversee ... but yes, I've worked under nothing but bad news supervisors and it sucks.
Excuse me, but yes she did. The OP's very last line posted by anony asks "do they pay spaces?&
Someone probably needs more coffee this morning but it isn't me. All I did was make a simple comment and this is what I get. It's no wonder a lot of us don't post more often as we get flamed for everything we say.
