Hello,
I have worked for Cal-Tex on more than one occasion. Cal-Tex Communications is a cable contracting company based out of Mesquite Texas. The operation I was employed for was located in Laurel MD. When I came back to work in March 09 I was immediately informed by the system manager Keysta Carmon that he & Corey Garrison (also manager) were involved in fraud being committed against Comcast Cable.
I overlooked that as I was only interested in working and making a living for my family. So I was eventually asked to become a trainer of the incoming sales reps for Cal-Tex. With this new task I was promised more money. So I went on to train these reps. Weeks passed with no extra pay for the training. I inquired about the money that was owed and was told that I would be reinbursed.
I was then asked to monitor the office and equipment during the hours of 9&2.By this time I still hadn't been paid for the training. So I asked Corey Garrison about payment and details on the wage rate for this new assignment they wanted me to do as well. Corey said "Your staying at the house dude do it or find a hotel".
Yes I was staying with Keysta & Corey at the time but never was my stay to be negotiated as payment for the work (Training) that I did. So now 3 mos later I am still trying to get my training pay from this company. Nobody will answer my phone calls. I did speak to their boss (Lane Palmer) with no resolve. I also made Lane Palmer aware of the fraud that has been going on within the company (Which Is Described Underneath) but he simply did not care. Please help
Description Of Fraud:
Since Cal-Tex is a contractor we did sales (Door to Door) and we were paid per sale and/or job installation. Comcast would pay extra if we legitimately were able to get a customer currently signed up for service with one of our competitors ie: Verizon, Dish etc. To prove we actually got that type of sale Comcast made turning in a copy of the customers' current bill in with the sale protocal. Reps would make fake bills to get an extra 100 dollars. Keysta & Corey new about this but let it continue since they did it as well. This went on for months surpassing hundreds of thousands of dollars I'm sure.
Thank you
