will keep you on a temporary contract for as long as they possibly can becuase after christmas they won't be rapidly expanding, they will be going into receivership and as a temp, you won't get any redundancy.

Also at the first job there's a fat lazy woman, who'll snipe at you constantly and take the credit for all your hard work. You won't be able to do anything about it, because she's letting the MD stick his barely-functioning cocktail sausage inside her sweaty cavern.

And she'll bully you so much that you won't want to go to work EVER and your life will be miserable, you'll end up quitting and then signing on.
Due to the current economic climate you won't be able to find a new job and the misery caused by being bullied will escalate into depression. This will become worse and lead to an ever-growing alcohol problem.
Due to the amount of alcohol you drink you willy won't work, your hygiene will suffer and the mrs will leave you. You will then become even more depressed and look for alternatives to alcohol to ease your pain. You may become hooked on heroin eventually pawning all you own as you search for one more hit.
By now you will b nothing but a shell of your former self, you future prospects are as bleak as the winter sun, you may be lucky and find shelter in a hostel but other than that your quality of life would be poor. Illness becomes the norm, you may even contract HIV or some other bloodborne virus as a result of sharing needles with your new found 'friends'. There is nothing for you now except the comforting embrace of Death.
It's a shame Bert; we loved you, we tried to guide you, we tried to help but it was all in vain. All we have now are the memories of who you once were.

there's no guarantee that I'll have a job next year if I go for that one, and the prospects at the already established company are a huge bonus
