Comcast mandated that any ''National contractor co.'' that did Installs had to go employee base. non-pay (collection co's) and UG contractors were exempet. The contract co's still paid piecework but guaranteed $100 a day, ie: if your jobs went south and you made lets say $40 they would give you $60 to make it a $100 day. I was part of the transition team for Comcast In Delco. (philly suburb)
