Re: Porn Baron
I once worked for a low paying company in a very interesting job and the Engineering Director didn't believe in annual pay rises. His idea was that if an engineer, or whoever, was hired for a certain wage then that should be it. The fact that a person gained experience and invariably took on extra duties was lost on the bastard, as was the rise in the cost of living. He being on an inflated salary compared to us engineers isolated the twatt from us. The company folded I am glad to say after it sacked 3/4 of the work force to slim production costs. I was lucky and found a better job pretty quickly but several others couldn't.
The only reward for experience and increased responsibility I am afraid to say is a monetry one, and even then the bastards in HMRC take their slice of it.

Have to agree with you in this particular instance David. It's all bollocks.
I'm self-employed and every now and again, some firm or potential customer contacts me and says "your qualifications and experience look impressive Mr. Eric and we might be interested in putting some work your way. However, as we haven't worked with you before, howzabout doing a job for us free of charge first, so that we can be sure that you're the right man for us?"
The fucking bare-faced brass-neck of it!!!!!
My reply is invariably the same: "You don't get a "free trial haircut" at some barbers you've never been to before. You don't get a "free trial meal" at a restaurant you've never eaten in before. You don't get a "free trial oil change" at a garage you've never used before. And you don't get a "free trial overnight" at a hotel you've never stayed at before. So what makes you think that I'd be willing to do a "free trial job" for you, ya cunt?!"

I usually send them the links, a good old rant from Harlan Ellison

Yes. Whatever happened to the concept of:
1. Employer advertises a job.
2. People submit their CVs with references as appropriate.
3. The employer reads the CVs and decides who to interview.
4. The employer decides who they wish to employ based on the interview/references.
5. If it is a permie job the employer informs employee that there will be a trial period, if need be, but on full pay etc etc and that any training that is needed will be provided on full pay.
Isn't that how it used to be for the vast majority of jobs until the last ten years or so?
The use of interns, unpaid tryouts etc etc should be banned. It is sheer exploitation.

Yes, I am absolutely appalled. And the two penises are used alternately.
I bet he gets paid for it as well - double time!!

Come now Graham. Slightly different story in the Mail? Slightly different from everywhere else, you mean.
So they had a good time?
Maybe having a good time means something completely different to young kids these days. For me it was going out with mates, with some money in my pocket, down the pub to meet some ladies.
Nowadays having a good time, seems to be:
1. Get on a coach in Plymouth, for what must be a 4 or 5hr journey given that it involved pickups in Bristol and a drop off in central London at 3am.
2. Because there was a cockup, the coach buggered off so they were left sheltering from the wind and rain under London Bridge for a couple of hours. The "proper" plan was to stay on the coach and get changed into their "steward" clothes at 5am.
3. They then did a 14 hr shift, much of it in the rain, before making their way to a campsite in Essex, to repeat the process for the next day or two.
4. As a result of all of this "good time" they got ?2.60 an hr according to the Mail for "apprentices" (dunno about you, Graham, but when I was a kid, toolmaking was an apprenticeship, not standing around in a fluorescent jacket saying "Sorry sir, you cant go there". THe ones on the work programme could not be paid because it would have meant losing their benefits so they got nowt. The poor bastards were probably terrified of having their money stopped if they complained and got bad feedback from their "employer". That's why the kids interviewed complaining were in darkness. They didnt want to lose their money.
Does this strike you as a "good time?" They make fuck all and the charity that placed them with Close Protection UK with an MD who has umpteen "security" businesses running since 2006, all of them dissolved apart from Close Protection UK, makes a pile?
The chap interviewed says "Mr Cooke, who hopes to work for CPUK during the Olympics, added: ?They have paid for all the training for my licence and an NVQ in crowd safety." Notice the word "hopes". Poor, poor bastard. Working for days for nothing in the "hope" that something/anything comes out of it - this tryout for work? Just like a poor intern who works for nothing on contract after contract in return for the hope of getting some paid work out of it.
Is this what UK PLC has come to, Graham? How desperate young people are that they are prepared to work for nothing; how unfair is it that they effectively have to pay for their own training because even the "apprentices" are not getting anything like a living wage. Meanwhile the likes of A4E, Close Protection UK laugh all the way to the bank.
