As an aside to that one, a good friend of mine (not in the IT field), just had the funniest offer of a job. They turned up to sign the contract because the owner had refused to fax it over to review. After reading through it, they saw the last page... that went something like this

I agree to leave my mobile phone on after work and during weekends, and to answer it immediatly if called. I also agree to check my phone messages every two hours when not at work.

This was for a professional job (nothing to do with critical systems or life support). In the end my friend left saying he would sign the contract, if they aggreed to remove that and a few other weird clauses.. The owner never called back. Well sometimes you are not dissapointed to not hear from morons like that..
