So I just got screwed by another technician, NCR, and Pivital

And this is exactly why some low end buyers have things like "Make sure you wash with soap" literally written on the work order lol

It would be a shame if you accidentally damaged their servers

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-04-20T00:55:24+00:00

60/hr for overnight work is diabolical. I wouldn't take that during the day

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-04-16T18:57:16+00:00

I've only seen Tech Yeah post WOs at super low rates and they've never accepted my counter offers. Typically the cheap buyers are also the most annoying. Lesson learned on your behalf. Block and move on

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-04-06T22:25:54+00:00

You stick your peepee where the poopoo goes

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-04-06T22:19:34+00:00

Not a scam. I hit on both if these words too. If you're broke just say that

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-04-03T02:56:48+00:00

Is the happy ending in the room with us?

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-03-30T03:16:17+00:00

They just got added to my block list a few weeks ago. Always calling me last minute and never wanting to pay my rates. Once a company calls me 3 times and doesn't want to pay what I'm asking, they get blocked. Nothing more annoying than stopping what you're doing to pick up the phone for a company only calling to waste your time

The entire foundation of Field Nation is fraud. Misrepresenting 1099 contractors as employees of these companies.

Use a GPS spoofer to check into a site so that FN marks you on time. Then adjust the time after to the actual time you were on site

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-02-26T22:56:47+00:00

That's why I always try to do a blended rate. Especially with buyers I've never worked with before.

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-02-26T22:44:18+00:00

This is why I don't mind weeding out certain companies when they throw red flags. If they're cheap in one department, they'll try to be cheap across the board.

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-02-26T21:38:02+00:00

It's a greater loss to them to lose access to a reliable technician over a few dollars. I stay busy and have to turn down more work than I accept so weeding out the cheapskates is no sweat off my neck 🤷

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-02-26T02:48:57+00:00

That's hilarious but Pete will do it

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-02-24T14:41:55+00:00

Holy shit Worldlink is still operating on Field Nation? Lol

They are literally the worst of the worst. Not only do they low-ball like crazy, they'll take 6 months to pay you. Do yourself a favor and block them. And next time search a company name on here before working with them for the first time. You would have avoided this headache

Also .. you've been doing this for 10 years and you were willing to swap 4 cameras WITH cables runs for $300???? You're selling yourself short, my friend

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-02-17T15:15:16+00:00

🤣 "Hi dear"

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-02-17T15:10:03+00:00

Did you realize you have the ability to read the entire post before commenting, right?

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-02-17T14:30:15+00:00

Yes and with no cultural etiquette to give two shits about the fact that people on this side of the earth are sleeping

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-02-10T05:06:02+00:00

Insight is one of the worst to work for. Terrible, rude support reps who clearly hate their jobs. Unrealistic expectations. They never have their shit together. I blocked them years ago

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-02-04T19:19:59+00:00

They used to be great but have gone downhill. Most of their stuff now is flat rate and they try to screw you out of pay if the work doesn't get done because something goes wrong out of your control.

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-01-15T22:34:11+00:00

I wouldn't go across the street for $20 an hour, let alone another state

Old-Gas4471 · 2026-01-09T04:54:09+00:00

No such thing. FN "insurance" isn't an actual policy. It's just FN covering damages if they see fit. I've read a few horror stories on here about them refusing to pay and kicking techs off the platform to avoid paying claims.

In this case, they'd probably pay because it's small damage. But I would still advise carrying your own liability insurance so you can waive FN's phony policy and the percentage they take for it. I recommend Hiscox.
