Can you back that up with proof (ie a wage slip from Telecom)... or are you just trying to trivialise the plight of these migrant workers.

We don't get wage slips from Telecom because it's all computerised. In any case, we get food stamps instead or our arses fucked.

You get food stamps! Lucky sod! When I worked for telecom I never got any. Instead I use to use a food bank and get income support from WINZ. Now I've retired to a council flat.

Back to the migrant worker situation - it's outrageous! The employer's that do this are no better than the cunts in charge of telecom!

Telecon, TelstraClear, Vodafone/ihug, Slingshot, Orcon etc have migrant workers in their call centres. That is why their service is shit. So I do not know where this trivialise crap is coming from.
