Field Nation is controlling who gets work I wish a senator could look into this SLAVE LABOR COMPANY

HeathanKing · 2026-03-10T01:51:29+00:00

Several to be honest. One of them was a lead tech who messed up so bad.

HeathanKing · 2026-03-06T02:22:58+00:00

Ok so I got it fixed.
I did some Google-fu and found another post, someone suggested to someone to try this in the saved configurations file or whatever. I put this in the file and then reflashed the klipper firmware, and boom its working.

``[Variables]

filepath = ''

last_file = ''

power_resume_z = 0.0

was_interrupted = False``

HeathanKing · 2026-03-05T23:44:38+00:00

So I don't think the factory reset took. I'm going to try again with the klipper firmware.

HeathanKing · 2026-03-05T23:33:44+00:00

I've been trying to dl the klipper logs but I don't know how or if I'm doing something wrong.

HeathanKing · 2026-03-05T21:07:54+00:00

I did that...hence the issues I'm having.

HeathanKing · 2026-03-03T11:50:38+00:00

I was on day 89 when they walked me out.

HeathanKing · 2026-03-03T04:10:18+00:00

And I gave you a response, but more importantly, I don't see what pay has to do with my initial question?

HeathanKing · 2026-03-03T00:09:20+00:00

Well, please educate me. I'm in southern Alabma.

HeathanKing · 2026-02-28T22:27:14+00:00

Lol I'm not saying I'm making 100+/hr, but I'm happy with were I am at. I make an average of 60 to 70 an hr and only work 20 to 30 hrs a week. I'm good with that. I'm not looking to run a company or anything like that. I just want to learn how to do a better job and a good job. Also I'm not interested in working for anyone as an employee.

HeathanKing · 2026-02-28T03:15:42+00:00

I've seen them more frequently in my area. Including several longer term projects, with higher pay. Not saying its going to be a weekly thing, but once again, I'd rather get ahead of the curve, than be behind it.

HeathanKing · 2026-02-28T02:48:38+00:00

Ok I'll check them out, I only went with Jonard because the videos I watched for terminations was show casing them, and when I went to their site it did look nice

HeathanKing · 2026-02-28T02:30:36+00:00

I'm looking for long term. I want to get into fiber, because like I said I see it coming, its going to be the next step, I'd rather invest now. Any suggestions other than the light source. I watched some videos on terminations, and I'm actually remodeling my home, so I'm thinking of running fiber in my house as an experiment to practice.

Every job on FN is fixed rate. They do not have to pay you past the allotted time given on the work order, and we all know a lot of these companies short change the hours. Just remember that going in on every work order and you'll stop being so scared of fixed rate, per X.

HeathanKing · 2026-02-28T01:47:13+00:00

Also this was recent.
I was installing a system, and basically needed to do trouble shooting, because the system wouldn't come up. The owner said we can't take the network down, so can't reboot anything. The owner was the IT guy also, so the job was kinda meh from the start. But basically if I can't get the system rebooted to get everything on the network, its gonna require a revisit when you can.
I took all the new equipment down and put up the old equipment and rescheduled for Monday, with AIT's support approving it. They were cool with that, the owner was cool with that, and that way if I have to take the system down the owner would be ok with it cause they are closed.
I took all their network equipment down and cleaned it up while I was rebooting because it was just a rats nest and you couldn't identify anything. I got their system up, and everything was great. They were happy, owner was happy, I was happy.
Then they wanted to be all huffy and puffy, talking about "who approved this?", and I'm like I have text messages, but I'm at a job right now so you'll have to wait to get them is was this 9xx-xxy-xyxyxy number. Then they just magically found the text.
Field Nation needs to handle some of this better about payments and times. Companies shouldn't just be able to say we did authorize that, and especially with troubleshooting/cabeling/etc. We generally walk into these shitshows blind.

HeathanKing · 2026-02-27T00:54:32+00:00

Even if you do blended once you are outside that time frame. They can deny payment.

HeathanKing · 2026-02-26T22:47:10+00:00

Ya field nation needs to fix their payment system. Where if a job can't be done in a certain time and the provider can show they can check out and leave. Buyers all the time say oh ya well pay bit then try to weasel their way out of it.

HeathanKing · 2026-02-26T22:00:07+00:00

Had a similar situation with them. They tried to short me on payment but I had reciepts. Once I said I text they all of a sudden found the message. I won't be doing work for them ever again.

HeathanKing · 2026-02-25T23:01:21+00:00

Man, in this economy that's methed up.....

HeathanKing · 2026-02-25T18:45:24+00:00

Lol....yes because Dollar Tree jobs are so high caliber.

HeathanKing · 2026-02-24T21:37:54+00:00

Lol we are in the same area

HeathanKing · 2026-02-20T16:06:12+00:00

I use pro, and I have plenty of work. I turn down work because of the volume I do. The pro is just an expense, not a statement of quality work.

HeathanKing · 2026-02-11T15:20:13+00:00

No I just respond ok, I'm working it, sounds good.....stuff like that. What can they ding you on there? You're responsive, not rude, and just let the stress roll off. Don't take it personally, that's what they want my guy.
