I don't necessarily see it as a bad thing that some nasty employers use the 90-days trial period to fire employees. At least you KNOW they are nasty, and it is better to NOT work for them. I don't see the data that there is widespread abuse (and at this point, any data is not stable enough to lead to any meaningful conclusion anyway, all we get is anecdotal evidence.).
Depends, did I need that money to feed my kids? People will put up with a lot of shit to keep their families fed.

Remember what WINZ does if you get fired - you get a 13 week stand-down for any UB application. Unless they've changed that policy... niiice.
