> The way I see it, they are going to 30 days out so they can keep 4 weeks of your money when you leave! It was bad enough when they kept 2 weeks everytime a job was finished and your work was QC'd 3 times before you left. I just finished a job in chicago for Ervin cable, three weeks ago, pay was suppose to be two weeks out and it was while I was there, but as soon as the job is over, well, screw you! I don't know if it is Erving Cable or the guy I worked for but I haven't seen a dime yet. Last year at Christmas time my wife was in the hospital fighting for her life, no Christmas for the kids, this year well if pay doesn't come soon I guess it will be a repeat performance. Damn I just love this job!!!Cussin

TELEPHONE # OR IF YOU DO GET THROUGH ON A # OR EMAIL NO ONE TAKES THE TIME OR HAS THE CONSIDERATION TO REPLY.I DONT KNOW HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THIS, BUT WHEN A MAN OR WOMAN IS SERIOUSLY LOOKING FOR A JOB .... HE OR SHE DOES NOT HAVE TIME OR MONEY TO WASTE ON THIS CRAP.FURTHERMORE ...WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH 30-45 DAYS OUT ON PAY? ALL CONTRACTORS(SUBS)ARE NOT PIECE-OF-CRAP ASSHOLES WHO LIVE IN THEIR BUCKET TRUCK OR HAVE NO HOME OR FAMILIES TO SUPPORT.IF YOU MIGHT THINK YOU ARE A PRIME, THEN CONSIDER ACTING LIKE ONE .HOLD BACK 2WKS PAY, TAKE 10% RETAINAGE TO PROTECT YOUR INTEREST, AND CONSIDER HAVING SOMEONE GET OFF THEIR ASS AND IN THE FIELD TO QC THE WORK .IF YOUVE GOT A HACK ON THE JOB THEY ARE EASY TO SPOT.BASICALLY, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR AND HOW YOU PAY FOR IT.THINK ABOUT IT ... FUEL,HOTEL,FOOD,ETC....FOR 30-45 DAYS PLACING COMPLETE TRUST IN YOUR HONESTY AND INTEGRITY AS A PRIME TO PAY US AFTER THIS LONG . ITS CRAZY . IT SHOULD NOT MATTER HOW FAR OUT A PRIME IS PAID BY THE MSO TO BE THE BASIS ON HOW , IF , OR WHEN YOU PAY A SUB. THATS WHY YOU MAKE YOUR MONEY OFF OF SUBS OR A FEW IN HOUSE WORKERS.IF YOU WANT TO BE A PRIME THEN ACT THE PART OR GET OUT OF THE PICTURE AND BE A LOWLY SUB AND MAKE SOMEONE ELSE A PAYCHECK.THIS IS JUST MY OPINION .CABLE HAS TO GET BETTER.
