They are not a full-time company, at least for those on the bottom. I have performed quite a bit of work for the company in the past, and have done so well (and with recognition). I scheduled a week of work (4 stores) with them, and they committed the jobs to me, meaning that they had to provide hotel stays for each night, all more than 4 weeks prior to the reset dates. Finally, on the day I was supposed to perform the resets, I get a text message saying I am not working that week, that they can't pay the travel.

Take it for what you will, but in this day and age of 10% of the US being unemployed, this is a very shady and messed up way of treating people who have proven their work ethic and work stability.
