Of course, an employer worth signing up with isn't going to put you
into a position where you have to lie to colleagues to get them to
`sign up' etc. 

So, hopefully, all the liars can get concentrated in the crap jobs and
we can all make notes so we know not to deal with those companies.

Cue old joke.
