It does worry me for the OP that they just won't let him go after he said he was going on strike.....

They twice had to get people flown out from the other side of the world to train us; first with the colleagues I started with, then some months later with the new small wave of recruits. Some people have left before they were due to be sacked (an email got found), so the risk is low I think.

No, because they're gone through two phases of training and selected the people that they want. They flew people in to train us. It's not gonna happen again....at least not for a while. The supervisor sees me as his man on the ground, so no, I don't think so.

Anyway, I went in this morning with a big smiley face and super asks how I am, so I respond with 'great, fine, all sorted. So what's been going on here?' He asked me who I had been speaking to- or rather if I had spoken to XX. I said no. The work day began.

Or less sense than euros? You might have got away with it this time - that remains to be seen. But pulling this sort of trick gets your cards marked in any country. You could have got all those answers without "going on strike", and come across as a reasonable person to deal with whilst not being a door mat. Perhaps you are right and they "need" you now - what happens when they don't? I don't notice them being too keen to employ you and your colleagues directly, and one has to wonder why that is?

That'll be in 2 weeks.

Edit: and it's less cents than euros
