Why do people accept permie jobs?

[Francko]

Give me a reason.

Nothing is permanent in this life. Isn't a permanent job an absurdity by its own definition? Besides, it has a contract and therefore it's a contract job too. It's simply being paid less.

[DimPrawn]

Only idiots, losers and those afraid of risk go permie.

How is your low paid non-permanent job going Francko?

There are lots of benefits not open to contractors that can make up the difference.

However, nothing is permanent, not even a permie job.

I my permie job they kept everybody on their toes by fear of redundancy. People were so afraid they used to do work very hard. Contracting sets you free from all that crap and you get new crap to worry about.

Like? Health insurance. Well, they manage to convince my wife but not me.

Well, when I took it 2 years ago wasn't low paid. But it is now. Anyway, its days are numbered.

I wanted some stability in my life while I divorced the wife.

FFS!

What about contributary pension, redundancy parachute, "paid" holidays and sickness, maternity.

Plus the love that you develop for the company - can't put a price on that!
