ED:
And I'm sure if you have been paid that late it is easily shown with a quick screen shot of your assignment history with pertinent details regarding clients shaded out. I'm not going to argue with anyone over he said she said when it can simply be screenshotted.
I've been in the industry for over 10 years, Confero is not a problem child in the field. I'm sorry you have had an alleged bad experience, but I would guess that less ranting and more communicating in a calm, rational way, would likely yield better results.
Furthermore, if they are as HORRIBLE as you continuously say they are, how dumb does that make you to keep doing work for them? Unless of course you're totally blowing things up out of proportion. I mean you go on and on and on about how horrid of a company they are, then say you REALLY want their job. It sounds like you're a lot more salty about a perceived slight in regards to not caring than what could be a fabricated pay problem. If it were really a pay problem I find it ridiculous that you would continue to do shops for them. You don't strike me as a stupid person. I'm sure we can agree on that right? Maybe just a little bit of exaggeration? Tiny bit?
Lastly, You are an INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. It's great that you did jobs for them, but to expect special treatment or your shops you used to do to be held is silly. Sometimes that's how it happens. It's not a regular job. You can't be upset about being treated like a contractor. There is no long term deal.
Dante: They do take a bit longer, but they've always been consistent. I honestly went through my entire history. I suspect the few people who are screaming probably had some type of situation that lead to this and it has little to do with the MSC but I can't say for sure. What I can say is I have done 35 assignments for them some June of 2009. The longest assignment took 5/15/09 to 7/12 for payment. The majority were paid between 33-45 days. I believe they say they take up to two months. I'm not 100%.
