Carrot stick fucking sucks

I've been working for my company as a contractor for about a year now and I've been lied to on so many occasions. Not only am I paid shit (I was a new grad when I was hired) but they literally doubles the workload I was assigned when I was hired with absolutely no pay increase.

Not only that I was meant to get technical experience in some niche aspects of my job but have been lied to time and time again about training. I get told a day then they cancel and it doesn't happen for months.

For reference this isn't even an American company either, im a Canadian working for a Portuguese outfit.
