The retailer I sub for said Dish has cut their payments again to retailers and he has to pass the loss on to me. I now make 1/2 the money on installs then I was making 9 years ago. Time for me to move on as I no longer can afford to work installing Dish. I loved this job but the time has come to say good-bye to installing Dish/Direct and Dishnet. Going to miss all my customers and the enjoyment of working in this field. Time for a 9 to 5 indoor job.
As an internal tech we haven't had any problems with pay cuts. I would ask if it was from lack of performance or sales, but retailers are not subject to QAS.
"So it seems your lied to." Don't you mean *you're*, a contraction of *you* and *are*.
Quite surprising, with the signature at the bottom of your (correct usage) post, professor.

It may seem like it to you but it is not. The word "you're" is a contraction for "you were" and "were" is for that past tense. This is something taught and learned in elementary school, by the way.Even if I did, the sentence "so it seems you're lied to" would be present tense and not past tense.
...nice try junior high student!

actually, I accidently left off the word boss so no I would not have meant *you're*. Even if I did, the sentence "so it seems you're lied to" would be present tense and not past tense. Since the supposed lying had already happened the correct sentence in your scenario would have been, "so it seems you've being lied to." Since I cleared was using the past tense...nice try junior high student!
Dish is putting a squeeze on all field personnel. The company is looking for way to slash labor costs. The best way to do that is to micromanage all experienced techs that draw the highest pay.I had my service installed about three months ago, and the contractor did a pretty good install. About a week later, two Dish supervisors came to my house to completely inspect and critique the install. They spent about 30 minutes going over everything. Dish seems to really keep on top of the installers now, so they probably get rid of some installers in the process, or at least ding them for this, that , or the other thing.
Biggest delay was the Hopper was defective and he took about a half hour to go back to his house to get another one. You would think he would have a spare on his truck. The guys work very hard and don't deserve a pay cut by any means.
maybe in Ohio 'you're' is a contraction for you were, but in the rest of America it is definitely a contraction for you are...

Now back to our previously recorded program...
Please tell me Hall didn't actually say that. No way he actually believes that's what "you're" means.
