errrr I was only saying that the big dramatics were maybe a bad idea. In no way did i think you were telling fibs.
There is no way you should work under those conditions and by the sounds of it a complaint to the low wage unit is more than justified.
BUt at least you have been warned though about them trying to shaft you on your leaving pay. I think in Private flyers there were a couple of Legal types who have in the past sorted out a threatening letter for free for an instructor in the same situation.
