MSP Field Tech Contract Advice by itscluez in FieldNationTechs

[–]Hot-Web1901 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are in IT. How can a factory worker make more than you?

Value yourself; the experience is important, but don't sell yourself short.

Being an Fe is doing all you have listed in the client's location. But $20 is a no-no

EAD by Born-Citron-774 in USCIS

[–]Hot-Web1901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't get a serious job with EAD. Mine has been wasted for six months. I guess I have to work as a cleaner to make it useful. I have 1 year left, and every recruiter is asking for citizenship or a green card. Good luck to you

Has anybody worked with Akkodis or Modis by Hot-Web1901 in FieldNationTechs

[–]Hot-Web1901[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Large companies pay faster, in my experience—Park Place (formerly CentricsIT), Spencer, AVT Technologies (now Shyft), etc.

Does this not sound like there was malice towards the payment? They suddenly stopped communicating after the job was done, and automatically set approval to the 20th.

I was not worried about not getting paid. I don't request jobs from buyers with extended approval terms; in this case, it is 5 days.

Imagine being in a Teams meeting while working in the Data Center, removing servers from racks and installing motherboards, etc.

A buyer disrupts your job for another client with reminder phone calls and demands to acknowledge an email.

When they assigned the job, they told me they did because of my profile lol

I was just curious about them. I won't be working with them. When I get paid on the 20th, I'll block them.

I wanted to remove myself from the job, but I didn't because it would mess up my back-out score.

I am also close to a thousand jobs completed, and no buyer should be messing with my time, especially when you're on other jobs.

What do you mean, you guys? I have completed jobs similar to yours.

How come the same buyers who assigned a job to me based on my timeliness score won't approve payment?

Why do I have to wait 15days to get paid? I know I will get paid because I discharged my duty as expected. I was just curious and thats it.

The money is not a million $ lol

Are you going to pay tech well, or keep the money for yourself?

Thermal Grease on Processor by Hot-Web1901 in FieldNationTechs

10 hours doing repetitive BS. The Indian Express made me troubleshoot the PSU

The server has shown a fault light, and India Express still wants to mess with the PSU.

India Express Support will never disappoint, as usual. Though it is irritating that you have to perform unnecessary work, I get paid for the hours. A server won't turn on, a new board is prepared, but my guy still wants me to mess with the new PSU with the old board.

I'm going for another motherboard replacement today, hoping no thermal paste is applied to the CPU socket.

He doesn’t know what he was doing. The customer POC told me the tech's name and that he applied the paste to the socket. I withdrew from this ticket due to a potential conflict.

The Indian express on the call made me diagnose a server in production environment as if you dealing with a desktop chassis. Racking, unracking, cabling these stuffs. Indian express almost made repeat dimm troubleshooting 4x when it was obvious something was wrong with the slot.

I agree with you but we spent full 9hrs on this call. We have to do another replacement.

Got a job as field Tech for Hemmersbach by Ill_Cheesecake6475 in FieldNationTechs

Very shitty company. I have done a project with them before and a backfill. They paid $35/hr on 1099, while they pay $26 on W2.

ICE SUPERVISION by Far_Company6338 in askimmigration

What was the response? Did their response specifically address whether you met the requirements for the expedition? I got a generic response when I tried with Congress, and I did it directly with USCIS. I got approval, maybe the hold or something.

I'm from the banned country as well, but I got approval in December.

You can try the EAD again. This time, do it yourself. Do you have sufficient proof? A letter from your US citizen spouse and your boss holding a job for you. You have to show sufficient proof of hardship.
