[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 350860, member: 1607"] Fairness is a relative issue. On the one hand providing an activity is legal and any agreed payment is made within the contracted timescales then it is fair. However most forms of employment involve two parties where often one feels they are worth more and the other feels they are paying their employees too much. Wherever you fit into any employment chain the basic rule that is always true is that the more links there are in the chain, then the more potential loss there is to the person doing the work, as everybody down the chain needs their share of the payment for jobs the workers are doing. So cut as many links out of the chain as possible to maximise your earning power. But, not all workers are capable of working for themselves, getting new work, doing all the admin side as well as the hands on graft is often beyond the abilities of some very good manual workers. How fair or unfair that reality is, can be debated as long as you like, I doubt that much will change though. Doc H. [/QUOTE]
