I received an email last night from a company that is about to become a former company I worked for. They have cut the drive time wage by 30%, and now only pay between stores. Effective immediately. The current assignment I am about to send back was only accepted because they were going to pay door to door. The stores are too far away to do for just the hourly rate. I feel they breached our agreement by changing this policy between the time I accepted the job 2 weeks ago, until I finally got the POP/display repair materials late yesterday. It was supposed to be here by Wednesday, I had scheduled this job for Thursday. We are talking a round trip of 100+ miles. it is about 22 miles between the stores, but in heavy traffic, 1 hour drive time. Am I wrong to think all previous agreements are now null and void due to this?
Also, just curious, as this company is also one that requires a ton of unpaid home reports, reading 56 page instruction manuals on how to use clients printers, RF guns, creating price tags, placing orders and doing credit returns-all unpaid at home, how would you politely tell them to go to H@#*?
