Premium Members RonBaldwin Posted May 28, 2009 Premium Members Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 I blew an o-ring watching that one! That should be a permanent link at the top of the business and practices thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members Brant S. Fagan SOC Posted May 29, 2009 Premium Members Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Way too familiar! I just had a producer actually say that because they had hired this big time director, everyone was cutting their rates in half just to work with this guy. Would I do the same, she asked. I replied, "Sorry, I just doubled my rate" once she told me who was directing. She was stunned and said so. By the twelfth hour of the day, she came to me and offered to pay my overtime in cash to "help save on the P & W." I explained that she was now asking me to pay her share of the taxes and skip the P & W she was bound by contract to pay. Not to mention the unpaid employer contributions for FICA, Medicare, and state taxes. She claimed not to know about all that stuff. By hour eighteen, she was completely useless, just like the experience she brought to the job. Who are these people and how do they sleep at night and look themselves in the mirror?
