'- if this goes to a full strike and the EZY press office get stuck in, there will be pictures of cadets standing outside mummy and daddy's big house talking of their hardship versus hard-up family deprived of their only ever holiday =
PR disaster. Then management can really get stuck in.'
That's exactly the problem isn't it. Guys like you who obviously don't know what they're talking about. These guys are on unsecured loans so they are from all walks of life. The perception that we are all starry eyed 19 years olds whose parents have bought us a job so they can tell the neighbours how wonderfully their son is doing is rubbish.
Fast forward 2 years and I will agree with you and am amazed that with the current information people are still signing up for slave labour terms and conditions.
There are 200 cadets swimming out there who have just been incredibly unluckly to see a good deal turn into slave labour in the space of a few months.
