[WISPA] remote employees
I have a tech who does real light field work, who mostly works at a desk in my office. He usually handles the customer BS, like phone tech support above what we let our held desk handle, as well as radio configuration and updates and support to my field techs. Due to recent personal issues he is moving 4 hours away. We figure, since he doesn’t have a job yet and can get good high speed service, we might try to do a gig with us remotely. I would tunnel him into the net, access to billing, and a VoIP phone to our system, basically use him just like I do now, just no physical presence. Anyone else doing this or have past experience with this? If so, was it positive or total nightmare? We are trying to figure out how to base compensation. Right now he is hourly, I can see time tracking could be a pain. In reality he could just sit there and play solitaire all day if I don’t have any calls for him or any network upgrades. Anyways I appreciate your thoughts. I lean on him pretty hard to take care of BS that I shouldn’t have to deal with. Without him I see some pretty long days ahead. And I cant afford to keep a field tech in the office, though I have a guy that would rather sit on ass and talk to customers as opposed to doing field work. thanks heith___ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
[WISPA] outdoor shielded cable for installs in a box
Just looking for what others are using for boxed cable shielded that simple or easy for customer installs. We use a certain cable now, buts on rolls, which is ideal for towers, but a pain in the ass for installs.

Re: [WISPA] remote employees
It is more a management issue than a remote employee issue. Get some sort of IM system that shows availability. (Skype, AIM etc) This allows everyone to know where everyone is all the time. If it supports video and screen sharing then even better. Be flexible on hours and focus on him more like a salaried employee. Have him work within your daily core hours but allow for late arrival or taking time off in the middle of the day to do something for his kid or working late or whatever as long as things average out to around 40 hours a week... They will normally average around 45-50 if you are generous. Arrange for quarterly or half yearly trips back to the farm so everyone can see everyone else get beers etc. If you do this well and your employee gets used to working from home with all of the freedoms it give him then you will not have to give this guy a raise for a long time as other jobs will not be able to compete. ryan On 1/22/14 5:27 PM, heith petersen wrote: I have a tech who does real light field work, who mostly works at a desk in my office.

Re: [WISPA] remote employees
I worked for a place that did remote employees.. Get IM called brosix it will let you do remote meetings and all that good stuff will also let you view his history remote.. Then get a good ticketing system that let's him put down what he did that day and sync every night then if you ever feel he might be cheating the company you can compare his work log with hours reported — Sent from Mailbox for iPhone On Wed, Jan 22, 2014 at 9:01 PM, D.
