Silent card
The colleagues are all pretty good.
This contracting company lays people off when no projects come in.
Because I had just passed my probationary period, the reason for dismissal had to be written as “failed to pass the probationary period” (they said this when the probationary period had been extended by more than a month, roughly speaking).
Thinking about the future, I chose to endure the pain and not sign.
When recruiting people, they were very eager to get candidates to agree.
As soon as there were no projects, they kicked people out—what a joke.
