I'm sorry but this having 10 hours to eat, sleep and get ready to go back to work shit is not going to fly. On the books it looks like they give me the legal minimum but that's not what I practically get.
In the US (which is kind of the virtual UK), a stoodge from the current administration was talking to a congressional subcommittee, claiming that the "good" of offloading jobs to China was that General Motors would be able to make a lot of profits which it would then "reinvest," though he did not specify that it would reinvest the money in the US since we all know that the money would go back into the China ops. I shit you not. He said that.
The senator who was entertaining the fool replied, "You know, I don't think there is a single perosn in the Chinese government saying that the best thing for China is to have an 800 million dollar trade deficit with the United States. They know that working people need jobs."
I enjoy the shoddy workmanship of software development outsourced to India. Nothing makes me feel better about globalization than even more products being made in inhumane conditions by people with inferior sets of skills.
That little brain of yours lets me think that that kind of your is not the best you can do, have you considered other stuff, like... web devellopement? you can do better than that honey...
