Becoming an”employee” and signing “contract”
Wondering if there’s been discussion regarding becoming an employee under the strawman and how to sign a “contract” (employee agreement, at least). I’ve got no choice, I’d rather not, but am desperate for the cash.
Do we sign (electronically) using the – By: (STRAWMAN) All rights reserved
Or is it something I’ll need to deal with after fact, via a tax return? I’ve been working only privately the past three years.
Noticing a huge load of companies using electronic “contracts” nowadays, probably to bypass real people reserving their living rights…

You always need to sign any contract with the By: <signature>
<Sentence Case Name>
All rights reserved
If someone wants you to sign an electronic contract, you cna ask for a paper copy to be sent out to you, either by post or email if you can print it out. Then you have a chance to complete it on your terms or cross out any terms that are detrimental to you.

Well I completed the tax form (P46) with the By: etc.
Most of the issue is that nearly all the terms are detrimental by design. I would be crossing out almost the whole thing if I scrubbed those.
Watching the webinar now though, Mark says by signing All rights reserved you never accepted the terms of the contract or agreement in the first place, which I guess if the principle behind signing this way for driving licences etc. Anything conflicting my rights is null and void. I suppose I just need to get them to give me access to upload a documents I can sign it in ink first.
Interestingly they have used my sentence case name on this agreement, not capitalised. To be honest the whole document looks like i was drafted by someone without any knowledge of contracts or law at all…

In the e-book is also written “All rights reserved. None waived ever”. Is that sentence outdated?
-
No you can include ‘none waived ever’ if you want to to place more emphasis on what you are submitting. You might want to make sure your usual signature is an ‘All rights reserved’ one so they can’t claim you are adding anything to it that is not usually there and just add none waived ever if you want more emphasis in your document. So you have options.

When you scrub out the detrimental if you want to you can insert more favourable clauses, the whole document can be changed.
