In response to this complaint, We would like to begin by saying that this is the only complaint we have ever received. We have a nice track record with our models, and strive for open communication.
I would like to address the first issue of Ms. Ringle's complaint, by saying it is out and out untrue that she was only paid twice in her three months of working with SDP. To say that we pay at 10 pm on payday is correct. We pay by greendot card as a courtesy to our employees, so they do not have to wait for a check to be mailed. An employee must earn no less than $25 to be paid, as it is explained to all contractors, as that is the Debit cards policy, not mine. We do payroll at 6 pm on the Day we receive the wire transfer from our media company.
Miss Ringle was offered training 19 times during her relationship with our company, and declined 14 of them, while being a "no show" the other 5.
On the day in question, that Ms. Ringle accuses us of not being around, or having the phone disconnected, We were in the process of moving our office to a new location. All models were informed of this in advance, and we had no other problems with an other contractor.
Ms. Ringle accuses alot of other things in her report, such as not receiving a prize of some type, our personal time, and her pay. She states we say we have been in business for 10 years, when in fact it is stated that I have been an internet model with various companies over the past ten years. We do always pay, we do always answer all questions on a first come, first serve basis. We are only human, there fore we are not open 24 hours a day, however we do always give our models the attention they deserve. However, when there emergency situations, we make every attempt possible to keep everyone informed.
It is our company policy that all models work 20-25 hours a week, and are informed of this during the interview, and training process. The complaintant only worked, on average, 4 hours a week, and was verbally warned by the company on several instances, that this is not something that we tolerate. She was never sworn at, or threatened in any way. It was simply, either work as agreed upon or leave the company.
Simply put, this is a slanderous complaint from an ex employee who is upset that she could not make something for nothing. Plain and Simple. As I have stated above, we have worked with several dozen models, and this is the first complaint we have EVER received.
