Thanks Geli... this is just the sort of exploitative cynical nasty sort of situation that a union could sort out... and the compnay would then have to think twice about even considering not employing people properly.
The reason I am pushing for unionisation - and I have just sent off my application to join... as a self employed person (yes.. you can!) is that once and for all... this is it... either people join and create the life they want... or grumble and accept it... As has been said before... if the choice is to accept the crap... then they will have forfeited the right to complain. Geli... can you contact me off list (info@bajr.org) to confirm the employer.... I will then pass this to the IfA with a formal complaint... and if (as I suspect) they are not ROs... then I would request that they at least stop running adverts and join me in public condemnation of the action.
