Day in the life of ERT







First we are told to get as many done in November as possible and now we barely have enough to pay for Christmas. All other contracts are gone unless you have Tamiflu and only a few have that. Does anyone see the end of the line for ERT? Dangling the carrot of new contracts but I think that's all it is, a dangling carrot.

Just took a look at my year end gross salary. OMG!! A difference of 10 grand from 2011.
Cant even make it as a supplementary supporter for the family. I'm looking...
 












With all the new taxes this job almost makes no sense. The national expense for mileage is 55cents, we are getting 45cents. They have cut our expenses for cell phones and broadband. I don't know about anyone else but all these have gone up and I am paying more for everything and the company keeps cutting back. I have so little work that I am considering applying for partial unemployment because I can't pay PDI to continue working for them. I too made about $10,000 less in 2012 and worked twice as hard trying to make money that never appeared on the old paycheck.

If you do try to get partial unemployment, don't expect it to be much because it will be based on your wages in 2012 and if you made as little as me, then you will get peanuts. It only makes sense to move on.
 


















I would say that if Tek is done by June 30 and the others are just seasonal, we will be joining the millions of unemployed. There are a couple other big pharma companies that are getting ready for layoffs in the next few weeks and many companies now are relying on the good old mail for sending samples. We are looking at the slow death of PDI shared.
 












Well here we go again. Promises of work but not until the end of summer and that is not even a given. I guess the name change didn't do much good and now the majority of us are filing for unemployment. Anyone think there is life out there? What happened to those promised Ipads? Oh guess since we are not employed effective tomorrow we won't have to worry about those. What's with all this last minute busy work on pdiu and does anyone really think there are contracts out there? Not!
