The thing is we're only seeing one side of the story. It assumes both parties agree. That being said generally all contracts have an early termination clause.

That being said generally all contracts have an early termination clause. He doesn't comment on what that is. Generally with 3 month contracts, it can be pretty short. It doesn't necessarily mean finish the 3 months.
To give you an analogy if you hire a general contractor to renovate your home for a 3 month contract, you can terminate the contract early if it's not working out for you. Maybe the contractor is amazing but you just ran out of funds. In any case the issue is that there is always an early termination clause in contracts. I would be curious what his is...
- andreasgonewild 12y agoThe whole contract was written on paper in Portuguese. I still don't know if the clause is in there or not. They certainly didn't mention it when they explained the contract to me. Naive, yes probably, but I prefer not suspecting everyone of being assholes before the fact.
- FollowSteph3 12y agoSomething I've learned is never sign any work or business contracts unless you fully read through it and understand it. Even if this means getting your own lawyer to read it. Unfortunately saying you did understand the language is not a valid reason. It sucks but that's also the reason why thee were so many bad mortgages in the recent real estate bust. Too many people didn't read their mortgage agreements. As the saying goes everything is good while it's good and everything goes bad when it goes bad.
- andreasgonewild 12y agoI agree, lesson learned.
