Siku Njema,
That is Good day in Swahili language,
South Africa. Hope you had a great week? I feel so blessed every July because I
have landmark accomplishments that last a lifetime, to be precise, I got a job
in July; got married and many more. I appreciate God for all my testimonies.
My experience with the job I got
some “Julys” ago; made me come up with today’s discussion; Contract staff
versus Permanent staff. Many young people abhor this term but it is a reality
that we have to live with presently as capitalist wishes. Let me paint a
scenario, a group of staff in a company put themselves together to vent their anger
about their condition of service but when the companies spokesperson would
address the press; the company expressed their displeasure about the conduct of
these disgruntled people who were unfortunately staff of a service provider;
that is all! This now reminds me of someone’s saying, “it is easier for someone
to come from another company and be recruited as a permanent staff than for a
contract staff to cross the hurdle”.
