I was doing the poster a favor. Who are you, her mother?

Hopefully the original poster isn't as thin-skinned as you...and can differentiate between a 'heads up' and a baseless attack.

"We have all tried that?" How can you speak for everyone? sm

I did complain and received a tertiary account. It did get a bit slow for a few weeks around the holidays, but everything seems full speed ahead now and I have more work that I can get done. I never considered quitting. MDI has been very good to me. Sorry your experience was not the same. :(

I think maybe the "we" in your post is incorrect. I have not been paid yet. :( sm
I always send my invoice in the minute it comes to me, so I hope something is not messed up. However, I did send an email to the powers that be rather than just sit here and kvetch. I know I will be paid, but today would have been a welcome surprise.

"We" have become a country of frightened 'SWEATSHOPPERS' eager to accept crumbs

And I believe that the worm is beginning to turn. Perhaps your husband's company should be confronted en masse regarding layoffs.

Don't go softly into that good night. Ask questions, do your research. We stil have rights, but a good deal of you are scared into corners, frightened to proclaim those rights.

Get out of the corners, come out from under the desks. It's time to take our pride back.
