"staff"

[Tensai]

I never get wound up by emails like this. It's quite simple, in most organisations the number of contractors are small, the number of permies that understand contractors are not temps is far smaller. It's just a matter of understandable ignorance so I don't worry about these things.

I recently refused to help judge a "best suggestion card" contest (FFS ) and was asked whether i would comply if my line manager told me to.... had to bite my tongue sooooo hard.....

How about "Roger"? Or is that too racy?

You know, I've never met a Roger!!

that looks like it has purposely been written to wind up contractors

Ask them what 'ethical' is? Maybe what is 'ethical' to them is not 'ethical' to you...

('Staff') is meaningless. It's just a reference to the group of individuals that make up the employees and (elected) contractors.

May as well be ('ABC_123')

Or if it were my code, ('Bob')

from a clientco HR email:

The ClientCo Code of Conduct states that ClientCo employees, and at ClientCo’s election, contractors ('Staff'), must comply with all applicable laws and regulations and must conduct their business activities in an honest and ethical manner.
