I've hired my share of additional help But, unlike these other two guys I didn't get into this thing so deep and so constrained and so powerless to the point where I had no choice but to bow to the absolute will and demands of that company. I could get out under favorable terms. They hold you up to the public as well as to capitalize on the economy of the matter by calling you " independent" contractors but you are just that....an independent contractor in name only. Granted they may in the end make out OK if they continue to play along with this scam and are willing to place at risk whatever additional capital XG demands of them but there are no guarantees given that XG makes it clear that they will never undertake any specific measures designed solely for the purpose of protecting their interests and equity.
I also got out on favorable terms. I stayed on as a driver to a contractor I wanted to work for....who unfortunately had to get out too. I now work for a CSP who can't find drivers ($$), has a substandard fleet of vehicles ($$) and who I feel is "in deep ($$)". All that risk while the company you provide services to just released a fantastic Financial Report! It's definitely "all good" for somebody drinking the Koolaid!!!
