Why don't you get OUT of business.  IF you cannot or just WILL NOT pay your ICs, then it is time for you to hang up the business.  Come one....do you really NOT have money to cover paying your MTs or are you paying yourselves FIRST!!!!!!!???

I promised myself, one more rubber check and I would involve the authorities, so be it, I dont care WHAT your explanation is...you KNEW that money was not there when you signed those checks. 

Well guess what, it's on now!!!

WOW...I can identify. Been there, done that, it sucks. But please....do not make yourself look stupid by threatening and filing police reports. The police can't do a damned thing. They will allow you to file a police report, but they can't do anything on collecting a hot check and it is a waste of your time.

call the district attorney's office in your city or county. depending on your state laws, you will probably have to send a certified letter...yelling on the phone may make you feel better but legally it is just a waste of time. Send the certified letter IMMEDIATELY...and then start counting the days. It is usually 10 days after he/she receives your demand letter...or more likely when you get the letter back because they would not sign for a certified letter. I send a certified letter and the same exact letter by regular mail. on the certified letter, at the bottom, type COPY SENT BY US MAIL THIS DATE...then if he/she does not sign for the certified letter, you are still covered. If you get the certified letter back as unsigned for, or if they sign for it, 10 days later if you have not received your money, go to the district attorney's office and file a cmoplaint. Be sure and take the check with you.  This is now a criminal issue. They can and will arrest the person who wrote the hot check...hope it is over the limit to be a felony in your area. Once you file the complaint with the DA, the whole thing will be handled by them. I can't begin to tell you how many times this happened to me...here is the thing: IF you work as an IC for an out of state company...there is nothing you can do to collect if they don't pay you. IF they give you a hot check, you can prosecute that...but if they just don't pay you, all you can do is file suit in THEIR STATE...not yours...and when you get to court and win, all you get is a piece of paper. Up to you to collect the judgment. If you are an employee and you don't get paid the labor board will collect or close down the business...as an IC...you are just typically screwed.

there has to be a better way to make a living...I really really feel for you.

don't kid yourself

Who is making the money to keep your paychecks the same????

Is this really fair?  You mgmt people should be doling out some of your paychecks to us MT's who have NO WORK and LOW PAYCHECKS.

If so I won't bother.  TIA

but please let me know what you are saying because we TT'ers are very interested in what you are saying to us all -- I just know there is something very wrong with my line count.  I have been doing this too long to not know how many lines I can get.  I cannot put my finger on the problem -- I just know it does fall in my lap. 

This is really disturbing to me.

but I was just working part-time, and this was about a year ago, so things could have changed.  Isabelle and everyone seem so caring, it is hard to believe that they would consistently have MTs without work, but that seems to be a curse of the industry lately.

Good luck to you!

Which nationals do not send work out of the country? I need to find another job.

TIA.
