sharkbait Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 I agree with Duece - Tell them to go to ****! - and a daily rate is a daily rate. Unpaid standbye is called unemployed where I come from. You may not be flying but you are being taken for a ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helicopterjim Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Six years and they still let me work with helicopter jim. But I don't think jims allowed to work with sluggo anymore. On forestry that is . <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That was on doctors orders. He said I need a functioning liver! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bladethrow Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Bill for the PPC, Gee what a surprise, and yet another corporate rip the pilot off BS, and I bet they are really holding that job over your head? Tell them to stick the bill directly up the arse. Let me guess Jbee Air or EB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helilog56 Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Gmach.....are you contract with your own incorporated company? or are you full time and or part time? If you are either of the latter, you will certainly have a leg to stand on if they make any unauthorized payroll deductions. If you are a contractor submitting a bill for services rendered, it would have to be settled in a small claims court (depending on amount), if it ever came down to a dispute. It is disheartening to hear about that kind of situation arising from what is obviously a sleazbag operator....what ever happened to a "gentlemen's agreement", integrity and ones word, "used" to work just fine.....

GoldMember Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Lemme see... good money, medical, dental, vision-care, company RSP contribution, 3-day X-mas party, pay increase every year, nice equipment to fly, great people to work with/for, medium endorsement and the freedom to run my own base as I see fit with very little head-office input... I'm not going anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unpaid standbye is called unemployed where I come from. You may not be flying but you are being taken for a ride. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was on contract to fly C-GCOM and would submit a bill for flight services, although I am not incorporated. I have decided (using the same criteria as he has) that all the time I was "on call" is billable and have sent the company in question a bill for my "on-call services" since May.

67november Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Gmach, hate to hear of the deceiptful practices of some companies :down: i hope you put a payment terms on the bill (ie due upon receicpt, net 10, net 30 etc...) as you need to establish a time line for payment. I'm currently in a simular situation with a company for NOT providing the service in question. :down: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
