Is there some advantage in having employees just doing nothing? I got an offer in early june, got paid for training and induction, got the uniform, and then, radio silence.

I chased them up on the phone three times and today, when I called yet again they asked me to send them an email at a specific address. It’s been over a month after I got the training btw.

I realise I need to look for new job obviously as these idiots are pulling my leg. But can someone explain why would they bother with recruitment if they don’t need staff?

      I hope so too, but I know myself to be naive especially when it comes to corporate manoeuvres.

    This isn’t the employer you need right now. Don’t waste your time trying to understand your abuser. You deserve better than they are capable of treating you.

    If they fire you, you’ll probably be entitled to some form of unemployment benefits depending on where you live, if they keep dropping your hours until you quit then there’s no such strings attached.

    Not familiar with your situation in Australia, but perhaps see if you can get some free legal advice.
