BUT - Nuance does in a back handed way Posted: Dec 26th, 2017 - 8:34 pm In Reply to: Some do and some don't...SM - Old Anon
They are holding me to making as much at 4 cents a line as my minimum wage is "worth." I was recently put on a PAP because I am not "producing enough" to equal what the (higher) minimum wage is and so as to NOT receive any make-up pay. I now expect to be fired in mid-January because of it. I don't care. They can go screw themselves. Obviously, they don't want to pay enough to make it possible to produce enough to equal any higher minimum wage, but would rather just fire people. In 2 years, wage in WA will be $13.50 an hour. I would have to do 3300 lines a day in two years once minimum wage hits that $13.50 an hour. This to account for my having to be "worth" my minimum wage, as well as having to account for my pay being cut for a mistake and still having to be above my state's minimum wage. Be warned...anybody in a state with a higher minimum wage can expect this to happen to them, too. In fact, I have it in writing that you have to produce enough to equal your state's minimum wage. I will be showing this to the unemployment office when I file for unemployment. I have been doing medical transcription for 25 years. Funny how I was always "good enough" before and now a low-wage outfit informs me that I am not "good enough" now because they pay so poorly they have to give me make-up pay!. I have never collected unemployment in my life, either. I believe 3300 lines a day is pretty much physically impossible to do for most if not all of us in eight hours a day, provided there would even be enough work to do that. Bah, Humbug!
