I really doubt that anyone can be employed in Israel with a contract "governed by the laws of the state of New York" - my guess (but I'm not a lawyer) is that it is completely illegal (assuming, of course, that you were actually in Israel, not New York, and the company had an Israeli presence). If such a trick was possible, you'd start seeing employers paying people half the minimum wages, and saying it is ok because "the contract was governed by the laws of the People's Republic of China" (or whatever...). -- Nadav Har'El | Wednesday, Jul 17 2002, 8 Av 5762 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |Disclaimer: The opinions expressed above http://nadav.harel.org.il |are not my own. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
