      Is this the US? Maybe it works differently for you guys. In the UK salaried employees still have contracts.

      Edit: I just read the other comment that explains how it is different in the US

      Wow, US really is different. Here, if you don’t have a contract, you don’t have a job. Don’t even show up for work before you have a signed contract.

        Yeah. Like, we have contract workers here, but they are generally for temporary jobs. And contract workers are generally the first to go if there are financial troubles for the company.
