I do understand your opinion, I simply do not agree with it and you have failed to persuade me to your view point.
We have a young lad were I work who started at a different company and he got his job with us, in part, because of that job. If he had stayed at home on the dole instead of accepting a low paid job to get him started he would probably still be at home, on the dole.
One think I can guarantee you is that if you are unskilled or have outdated skills, sitting at home waiting for someone to pay you a so called "living wage" rather than getting out into the workplace means that is exactly where you are going to stay.
I am talking about starter jobs, not imaginary or misleading starter jobs - because they are not starter jobs. :o)
