Posted yesterday, no advice was given.
I have a profession issue:
I've been working at this dream job of mine (Rollercoaster technician)
Well the job is awesome and it pays well, or well, it should pay well:
I've been doing this for almost 18months under doubble extensions of the original 6-month "try out contract" wich pays me about 1000€ less then my fellow technicians.
I mean at the end of the day, I do the same if not more work then my collegues and I still make so much less money!
The idea of the "try-out contract" is that I work 6 months for a smaller sallary while they get a chance to see me in action: "If Im a good fit for the position".
I should, after those 6 months, get a full time contract with full pay but instead the "people holding the cash" decided to just extend the try out for another 6 months! And then when those 6 months were up they did it again!!
I have bills to pay and shit to buy! + I'm trying to find a better apt and "I don't have a full time contract" usually don't sit well with the landlords.
Anyways..
My current 6 months are almost fulfilled and I really want to get the full time contract this time!
I want to send some pressure up the chain of command and make them atleast think about it.
>What do I do?
Also: My boss isn't the problem, he wants to give me the contract, it's higher up the chain where they're being cheap.
I love this job, I just can't walk away. After this any other job will feel dull so...
I'm sorry to hear that anon. This happens a lot in Mexico too, but sadly I'm not from there and cannot give advice. Any form of legal help or a union to turn to? It's really fucked to get renewed for a contract meant for beginners. I think it's best not to sign, but you could also not be guaranteed a job elsewhere.
so there was a contract involved?
sue. fuck em, you've been fucked three times now and they haven't even sucked you off.

But if I sue them = Very unlikely I'll get the job.
As a guy who usually don't like to work, I've found what I want to do: This shit!
I was so bored working production lines (Original education: Industrial Technician) but I know I want to work with Technologies and it doesn't get much cooler then climbing coasters!
I can't just leave, not when Im this close to getting it, there's no guarantee that I get a chance to work with this kind of thing again.

Shop around for a similar job.
You have 18 months of experience, that will soon become 2 years, and know it's your dream-job... just check if there is anybody offering better conditions.
Ofc, don't tell your boss that you're jumping ship. Don't tell anybody, better yet.
