Hi DB.

I appreciate your point, and it doesn't sound unreasonable. You're actually giving me too much credit though. It was originally Raoul who made a good point about deposits. I was merely agreeing with him. Of course it's one thing to give you a reduced salary during a probationary period and another to hold back a percentage of your agreed salary. The latter, I would definitely disagree with, in fact I did disagree with it when my latest school tried to pull that same trick with me at the beginning of the school year.
