Contracts at all don’t exist until one gets to the executive level. Literally every job I’ve ever had, admittedly all in Texas, so perhaps not the best example, explicitly stated in the HR paperwork that no one beside the CEO of the company had authority to even *make* a contract with employees.

That said, no company can just… sell a job to another company, much less the employee.

“Listen, all I want to do is <some wildly incorrect interpretation of something they read or heard on a tech channel>.”

“You can’t, sorry.” Closed. All done!

We had a computer lab in both my elementary and middle school, and in both schools they had no idea what to do with it. So all we did was get put in front of some math or reading educational software and learn nothing about computers.

I have a funny feeling the methods haven't advanced by much since then.

It's different now.

Now they get put in front of a web browser aimed at something educational, and hope that it's locked down enough that they can't go do something else.
