Perhaps not. Doesn't change the fact that CX can't just decide to make up their own rules. Bases save CX millions, and that is even with them ADHERING to the laws of the land. They just don't like doing things legally and fairly. It's in their nature. Think of the nature of a snake or a scorpion (apologies to both species), they are what they are....as are the Swine's. They try it on, hope they get away with it, and when they don't, they lash out against the only entity they can really hurt, their own employees. Nice aren't they? Don't try and excuse their abhorrent behaviour. CX are the problem, not the employees who wanted to be treated legally. Just because they agreed to an 'illegal' contract doesn't mean the rest of NZ has to allow it.
