All interpreters should get together...
I worked for Able translation as a interpreter and went to the places like Kitchener to cover the assignments. From last June I have done so many assignments but not s single dollar is paid. I sent several emails to enquiry and calling them almost every day. One day accidentally Annabelle came on line. She said i have to wait until it is paid when I asked how long I have to wait it can be vary for many months. When I argued with her she asked my name and said that name is not in the system and check with the coordinator. When I checked with the coordinator she said my name is there.We have been posting on this web with out any action. We should get together and go on protect in front of Able translation to open the eyes.

Might be time to contact CBC and The Toronto Star and request a follow-up to their news stories from last fall. CBC actually did a TV segment on the very crooked Wilson Teixeira and he told them this was due to accounting errors. By the way, they also fire any accounts receivable people who push for responsible bookkeeping and payment policies.
Here's the newest CBC reported complaint so they are still interested...
