With 'some' companies / people......

Ever was it thus....

Forty years ago, I did a 'contract' job for a then 'respected' operator in WA, who then reneged on the 'living away fom home allowance' of $10 per day for 30 days - YES - it was a very 'remote station' area, anyway the allowance was NOT paid.
So, I called the 'man' a few choice names , to his face, and that made me feel a bit better, and I moved on......

To the next one.....

Until......

Then, 'miraculously' I met the aforementioned person at a social gathering, and he was 'phuked' - and I wasn't - and THAT made me feel REAL GOOD!!!

For Wot Its Worth..... Hang in there until you meet the 'right employer' - however scarce they might be....

If you are being underpaid - GO TO your Union / State Fair Trading Office or whatever its called nowadays!

Cheers
