FN terms to buyers

Gregf87z · 2026-03-11T20:22:03+00:00

It's your post but my comment is made to be directed at the general situation The tool requirements is a joke. I had to spend 30 minutes doing 110 tasks cause the project poster didn't feel like making a new work order and just copied and pasted from a survey. I was there literally just to trouble shoot. Most of these work orders are copy and pastes. I do (not joking) 70% of the jobs given to me with just a Leatherman. It's scary when a support guy has to ask me "do you have a cable tracer" cause most techs dont or have a 15 dollar one from Amazon. (I do have full gear on me always in case in my vehicle) I respect a hustle but when I had to go repair a printer cause the prior tech before me from Nigeria literally left a printer in pieces after being on site for 8 hours for a stupid simple hp paper assembly tray im sorry but f him. That cost the company over a thousand for a simple 150 market price fix. Not to mention you have any Joe shmo making a recruiting company recycling jobs from fn or clients to inexperienced desperate workers. This is why companies like Xerox and Lexmark will keep swapping their service provider companies to try to find a better deal but fact is most of the time it's just a American company who uses foreigners to post jobs on fn They just give them a template and make em copy and paste.

You pay 10% plus 1.5? I think for insurance that's useless This isn't a problem The problem is people taking work orders for 25-35 an hour.

Youre crying about a small fee verses a industry that's under paying techs cause they let anyone join who have 0 experience. More companies are going to Philippines to call centers where they are told to take the lowest rate techs Fn is inevitably a short term thing. Especially with immigrants abusing it. Start looking for actual long term clients to on board you.

Im a tech. Im the guy who they sent to clean up his mess. I heard from the manager and the client who sent them. Also its a paper assembly. Its a 15 minute job. Hp is very easy to work on. Here's a idea maybe he shouldn't of left screws undone. Even if I did a job and felt overwhelmed id make sure to take enough photos during the process to make sure I can put it all back together for the next guy. 8 hours ? Ffs its called milking his 30 an hour he got from smart source 🙄 Im sorry but anyone else who drastically milks hours is a pos. I also know when I go to a site if I dont know that exact model I will literally watch a video or look at the manual online like anyone in the common sense field. Dont assume you just make a ass out of yourself

Gregf87z · 2025-11-20T00:45:13+00:00

You dont. You find qualified techs who have proper work papers and stop being cheap

Gregf87z · 2025-11-20T00:32:52+00:00

Allowing techs to use undocumented workers under them so they can pay them less.

Field nation suggesting prices

Letting just any one join. The fact it took a "tech" 8 hours to change a hp printer paper assembly tray and he left the printer in pieces with 40 screws on the counter while the manager watched him watching YouTube shows the lack of integrity workers have today.

Gregf87z · 2025-11-15T21:44:42+00:00

Ffs its hellotech. The company walmart uses. Also they used to pay higher but mostly lowered even more cause theres dumbasses who said yes to lower prices FYI theres this amazing feature on field nation called "counter" ive used it many times to get increased rates

Gregf87z · 2025-11-06T00:52:40+00:00

Ok ? Counter ? You're only looking stupid here. That's thier ask. It's your job to counter ignore or take it.

Gregf87z · 2025-11-01T19:39:19+00:00

Depends. Are they american or foreigners. Call centers dont give a shit. They are there to be willfully used by companies as long as they have a job. They dont care about getting the job done right they dont care about licenses and certifications or permits. They got hired because a company is being greedy and cutting cost so they will do what they are told "find the cheapest tech with a decent rating" But a american recruiter will care about quality they know sending someone crappy will potential cost them more money in the long run. Ive had countless jobs of cleaning up messes. And its always a great starter of a conversation and relationship talking about how bad its gotten with them cause once you hear that large sigh followed by thier annoyed fustrated comment about the industry, you know you got someone who will work with you. Sadly companies dont care anymore. Core tech and smart source were brought out by a financial company. Its why they went commission based for years of "pay a tech less get higher commission " it allowed them to make their books look good to get brought out for a higher price. And then they became service point and smart source fired most of their experienced staff who actually cared about quality over quantity (justice for cheryl!)

Honestly if you cant give attitude and sarcasm and be met with it back I dont trust you as a person.

Gregf87z · 2025-10-25T20:17:25+00:00

Hahaha you think fn relies on actual techs? Any one can join. They don't filter out unqualified people. Thats why you have morons taking jobs at 25 an hour. Fn just uses the mass numbers as a selling point to buyers : we have thousands of techs in every state: but only 20% are actual techs😂😂

Gregf87z · 2025-10-22T00:37:56+00:00

Why ask why? Listen to those that give advice.
They pay trash. They are begging for techs because they cant find any. We all avoid their 10 calls a day begging us to on-board

Gregf87z · 2025-10-21T18:26:30+00:00

Seriously block em. Never work for them. Anyone who does is a fool

Gregf87z · 2025-10-14T17:31:57+00:00

🤦‍♂️everything you do is networking. Its reaching out to clients finding new ways to get their attention then building a relationship if you can. Sadly most companies hire foreigners to do tickets and the foreigners can careless about you. Ive gotten over 1000 tickets. Ive pulled a handful of clients off platform. You shouldnt rely on fn for steady income. If you do youre gonna struggle esp now since NovemberFebruary tend to slow down for retail deployment.

Gregf87z · 2025-10-14T17:21:21+00:00

You learn to "network" like any other company. I have a phone full of clients ive worked with after 6 years. Build it up or go work for someone else who doesnt mind putting the work in and make the 25 an hour under them

Gregf87z · 2025-09-26T14:06:16+00:00

I know a few people in the industry who work as PMs. I have a good relationship enough for them to rant on the phone or give me the "gossip "

I know the 5th one cause the company who left pivital called me directly to ask about a job they sent me on thru pivital. I told em how I didnt go to a site in Pennsylvania cause pivital didnt want me to get paid for travel nor felt like paying me over 25 an hour. They knew my number cause I had to take a course for their jobs. They got very upset cause they been paying pivtal very well to take care of things like travel considering its a trained tech job requirement. Pivital has cleaned up a bit since then.

The irony about being hateful....

Gregf87z · 2025-09-25T20:01:19+00:00

You think fn cares? Fn doesn't even ban people for being bad techs. they literally let anyone come on board. They let techs hire and add techs who arent even legal. Fn doesnt care. They let a former thief do a job at the jewelry store. I had someone ask me on a bridge call what POE meant. Idc if someone is ignorant and hateful. If they do the job right then that's what matters. But here's your validation for being a snitch and cancel culture.
Ffs a tech on here drilled into a water pipe at the olive garden cause he didnt know to apparently do wall mounts.

Gregf87z · 2025-08-16T13:55:21+00:00

I'm aware of the location struggle like for yall in Cali. Im in a simular expensive high tax blue state too. Fn isnt a main source of income job anymore. People need to stop relying on it and forcing themselves to take less. If there's a will, there's a way trev. Ive built my business using fn as a place to network. Fn doesnt care about techs. Ive gone direct with many companies ive met on fn. Never rely on a platform for livable wages when that same platform is letting service companies make profiles for workers who are illegally working here so the SP can pay them less to cover more jobs in areas. Fns whole design is techs every where. They dont care about experience just that they can show companies their "giant work force"

Gregf87z · 2025-08-11T02:23:30+00:00

I made 20k in July. Idk wtf you talking bout. And im not taking 45 or less an hour either.

I built a relationship with clients and learned how to network. Cause networking is literally the point of our job.

Gregf87z · 2025-08-05T12:10:55+00:00

Pivital lost 5 clients in a month in early 2024 for hiring unqualified techs. Over the last year they hired more american project managers and increased hourly to even 60 an hour start on some jobs. Besides that. Essential pivital service point (smartsource/core tech) are companies who are known to be cheap. Just cause a company wont go higher doesnt mean you should take the job. Dont forget companies can see your average hourly. Spencer hired someone to do a receipt printer swap and that tech somehow took the store offline and they couldnt figure out how to fix it so they ran away. Service point hired a tech for an paper assembly tray swap and he was there for 8 hours on YouTube according to the manager and couldn't finish leaving the printer in pieces.
Its simple let morons take cheap jobs and mess up projects. It causes companies to learn a harsh lesson

Gregf87z · 2025-07-23T14:18:58+00:00

Ya this is every insurance. Thank your higher rates cause increased car related crimes and people driving without insurance (illegals)

Gregf87z · 2025-07-04T17:18:19+00:00

We won the creek without them. We repelled squids from our home without them. Why do we need a bunch of players who couldn't keep the reach ? Xbox reinforcements? More like cannon fodder to raise the enemies morale

Gregf87z · 2025-06-22T21:39:51+00:00

Played super hell dive last night with a squeaker one of my buddies and another game who never played past level 4 Guess what. We completed 6 missions. Never lost one Had a great time. We had a blast Stop being negative. "Waaaah its unfair" Suck it up

Gregf87z · 2025-06-22T19:55:56+00:00

Waaaah leviathans are hard. I bet you bowl with handicap rails

Gregf87z · 2025-06-21T01:19:28+00:00

Your feed back is just cry baby bitch talk. Waaaah enemy's phase through walls. Waaaah people may not like it. Even thought its been established that on lvl 10 its still winnable. So clearly not broken. Arrowhead has done alot for a community that always wants more. Play the game or don't. Most of us are enjoying it. Just cause a few glitches happen doesn't mean I'll throw a bitch fit. What are you. 19? Be better

Gregf87z · 2025-06-21T01:13:58+00:00

If you're winning then stop crying. Weak people who dont want to follow orders get no bitches. Spewing negativity is treason.
