If that's the case how is your salary upheld?I'm a freelancer (so a business to business relationship with my client) and don't have any of the normal employee protections. But I still have a contract that lay out my responsibilities to the client and the clients responsibilities to me.Even IF there's no written/signed agreement (which imho is a contract), you know what you're getting into. Just the same situation by another name.The assumption that you had a rug to stand on is the initial mistake imho. You know you can't depend on the job to be always be there, so why act/be surprised when the job isn't there anymore? This sounds like one of those Roadrunner animations where the coyote runs off a cliff and only later notices that he's walking on air and falls.It's their 'bad mistakes' to make, if you go high up enough, they own the company or they are hired by the owners of the company to run the company. It's like traffic accidents, either you f-ed up or someone else f-ed up, but when you participate in traffic, you know this can happen. And as long as all participants followed the rules, it's nothing more then an accident.</blockquote>
