there's also alot of fuckery that goes on in that industry. i'm not saying its exclusive to this field, but it definatly has more than its fair share. just a quick example from my personal experiences: a decent place that i worked at, and was paid pretty good by industry standards, would never allow me to work more than 40 hours "on the clock", to avoid overtime. they would pay me cash, but here's the kicker: they would "take the taxes out for me", which is nothing more than theft, rap your mind around that one. the obvious answer is to report it, but then i'm out of a job!
