My gf used one. She had a legal right to quit but it was inconvenient for the company. They refused multiple times, they also gaslit with "what about the children we teach, if you leave the school might have to close" etc. etc.
Using the agency means you do a 10 minute phone call and that's it. You don't even have to work your remaining days or talk to the company ever again. The agencies seem to have some legal powers that a normal person doesn't, or at least in reality they get results much faster and aren't allowed to screw around.
What did amuse me is there's a discount if you use them multiple times.
- rkagerer 2y agoIs that "gaslighting" or simply plain old guilt tripping?
- rjh29 2y agoYou're right, thanks for the correction.
- DonsDiscountGas 2y ago> The agencies seem to have some legal powers that a normal person doesn't I suspect the power that they have is actually knowing the law. Also by hiring one the employee has shown they are willing to hire a lawyer, so the employer can't bluff with legal threats. And very few employees are actually going to be worth the trouble to sue
- jalapenos 2y agoThe special powers are probably the following sentence: "sure, you could sue; also, we could check more closely for labor law violations; which would you like?".
