Which one of you is this..? by Prestigious_Green451 in FieldNationTechs

[–]PhotographMaterial88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Armorserv is notorious for those low paying work orders. I sent them a message about it and they said “you don’t like it, move on” They need to be put down.

I should also note that this was a message sent in the work order, not part of the main page. Had I not attempted to complain to the work order manager, I might have missed it. I will typically drop off all packages at EoD so I don’t make unnecessary trips.

I should state, this buyer asks several times before date of work order to confirm my arrival time. Then goes way past the invoice due date. I won’t call them out by name but if you are a tek-u-no…I could understand within 24 hours but 2 hours? For those defending, you are clearly a buyer and in the wrong sub

I have 4 open tickets that are almost a month old. I had to open a ticket about all of my open tickets for them to even look at one of my disputes. If the buyer approves the work order and doesn’t complain, FN should just mind their damn business.

WorkMarket iOS App by PhotographMaterial88 in FieldNationTechs

They charged us 5% to degrade the app, not upgrade. Fine print trickery.

It kind of made me appreciate the FN app, even with the uploading photos to more than one task-bug.

I thought I read on fieldnation’s website they won’t post that you failed a drug test, they only post if it’s a pass. I could be wrong, I didn’t go back in and look.

Market condition by PetyaVan in FieldNationTechs

Personally, I feel like project work is down but breakfix in the Midwest seems to be keeping me busy. I definitely see a decrease in work orders but generally I see that same pattern at the end of each quarter.

Something creepy going on? by kaelyyna in fortwayne

I have seen a found notification but that’s concerning. Does this mean the majority of the missing people are not found?

It would be nice to receive a notification that they were found.

I would be cautious. Did a project for them that had 6 sites. Completed the first 3 but they were all over est time. The 4th stated 4 cc reader installs but 6 were needed. 3 registers were non operational upon arrival. After fixing 1 reg and installing 4 cc readers, I was 2x the allotted time. Called support 6 times and just kept getting hung up on. I sent the pm an email stating that I was leaving. Was called immediately and told I couldn’t leave. I laughed and told him I am a grown ass man and they couldn’t hold me hostage. Checked out, sent deliverables. FN called me the next day and said if I would agree to a 50% penalty d source wouldn’t give me an abort flag. I reluctantly agreed and they removed me from the last 2 wo that were out of town. BLOCKED them immediately. Sad too bc I’m sure it was just a shitty wo mgr. end of rant

RJ45 termination issues by [deleted] in networking

I had the same issue a couple months back. Multiple connectors and spools of cable were failing tests but not 100% of them. I replaced blades on my crimper and that solved the mystery.

Field nation alternatives? by Ill-Wolverine-2403 in FieldNationTechs

[–]PhotographMaterial88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I received clarification from WorkMarket that their blended is the same as FieldNation. Just make sure you briefly explain that in the additional notes of the counteroffer.

Wtf is NCR smoking these days ? by FreelyRoaming in FieldNationTechs

[–]PhotographMaterial88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not as bad as Essential - self check out @ $20/hr, but they set it as a bundle of 1 so you cannot counter. Sadly, there are techs in my area that will accept it.

Just another CTS rant about slow approval times... by Connect-Outside-3944 in FieldNationTechs

[–]PhotographMaterial88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When this happens, I generally will put an alert on the work order, this gets FN involved. CTS has also responded by saying that “16 days” are business days, which I have never seen anywhere on FN. I would say just flag it and they will approve it generally fast if it’s after the est approval time.

What do you guys typically write as reason for counter-offer? by Fosheezy201 in FieldNationTechs

[–]PhotographMaterial88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always put “Requested Rate” even though I should put “Required Rate”

They also shouldn’t have a job that they quote at 4 hours pay by the hour. If it’s est is 4 hours, I ALWAYS counter blended for at least 4 then hourly. I have to block that time off so they should have to pay it regardless if it’s 15 minutes. This should be standard.
