I wore both for years, did not mind either one but then in about the first of 2000 got to where I could not find glasses or contacts either one that would give me satisfactory eyesight. I tried really because I hated to think about having my eyes operated on. I had no choice because I could not see the BIG GREEN FREEWAY signs. I had Lasik because that was my only option.

Resume/Contacts

Temping is a great way to make contacts,
learn new specialties, and even pick up a permanent job (which happened to me three times). If you have your own clients, temping is also good for extra money if your docs get slow. Best of all, if it doesn't work out, you just walk away. Good luck!

Who are the contacts for this job? Beware of ANY NEW company in Illinois. NM

DOL CONTACTS TO REPORT FOCUS/NUANCE

Hello,

Whenever an employer requires you to work a certain schedule or attend a mandatory training, they are are absolutely required to pay you a minimum wage. Period.

Long story short, I was in the same boat and contacted DOL a few months back. With regards to Nuance/Focus, a company located near Boston, MA, here is the DOL office to contact regarding the issue of not getting paid properly:

US DEPT OF LABOR
WAGE AND HOUR DIVISION
JFK FEDERAL BUILDING
Room 525
Boston, MA 02203

Phone: 617-624-6715 or 617-624-6700

Persons to speak to:
Mr. Paul Sullivan (not sure of his title)

Mr. Robert Lang, ( I think his title is Assistant District Director).

need to get my glasses checked. The guarantee for the
rose-coloring must have expired and now everything looks gray and bleak at this company. Glad you are as lucky as you are.

Well, those rose-colored glasses are all well and good
and I love MDI, too, but what would you say to someone who was having a problem making enough to make the house payment? I loved it, too, and think the people, including D, are tops, but I would caution anyone about the low work situation right now. It has gone on for months.

Haven't noticed any relation. Try and make contacts from previous posts to help weed out the
