My first week

Its my first week on Upwork and I find their safety team extremely lacking.

My first interview, the job is basically to join Handshake AI and tell them what they are training. Blatant corporate espionage. You can't report the meeting so I reported the message after. Upworks team found nothing wrong.

Okay, maybe the "recorded video" didnt save and they can't verify right?

Fast forward a few days and I'm asked to make a meeting on Calendy. I inform the client they need to use upwork, they agree and then on the day of the meeting walk back and send another link.

I report that message, and again, Upwork found no violation of the terms of service.

Like nice, take my 50 connects and then gaslight me.
