I'm a college graduate, got a bachelor degree in Graphic Design, genuinely love art and design, and being a big man child, I love collecting toys and trinkets. I landed a job in Graphic Design for a toy distributing company, I do toy packaging, school stationeries and so many fun stuff. My boss is chill, met a lot of new people, I got to keep some of the toy samples, even went to movie premieres.
But….
After the 2-month intern period, I signed a 6-month “training” contract, in this case means no insurance, no compensations, no overtime pay. I worked overtime for 1 week (which is an extra day worth) because we all really want the project to be success. Not only taping my ass to a chair all day, but scrawny old me get to be down at the warehouse and moving heavy-ass boxes around because “we're short on human resources”. After the 6-month “training” contract, I was up for a official work contract, which is nowhere to be found, I'm still waiting btw, around 2 months with the “benefits” listed above. And I did ask for my proper contract twice, both time got the respond “We will send you on a later date”.
You might think my salary must be worth all these trouble huh,
I made roughly 300$ per month, Monday to Friday plus Saturday morning, 8AM to 6PM
Sorry for the dumb rant, writing in English isn't my strong suit.
