My employer's "opening bid" was that they owned everything I
did, including the letters I write to my granny. I edited the contract to replace that with something
reasonable - that they owned what I did on their time and
anything else I did which was *directly* applicable to my
job. That's the last I heard about it, and I am assured by
one of my union's tame landsharks that because they have been
paying me for the last several months, that constitutes
acceptance of my revised contract. At the same time, I also
excised a couple of other 'orrible clauses from the contract
too, such as giving up my rights under the EU Working Hours
Directive.
I'm glad I could call on my union for help. Everyone else
should join a union too for the same reasons.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
