Regarding the (off-topic) debate, both sides have valid points (like any good debate, I guess).
On the one hand, I, too, would argue that people should be aware enough of their contracts to make an informed decision as to whether or not they can live up to the terms and conditions. And, failing that, have a fairly weak argument of injustice.
On the other, as others have said, employers and employees are not equal. The latter, quite often, might not be in a situation where they cannot pick and choose contracts to accept, nor be in a position where they have any power to negotiate terms.
Moral of the story - don't get caught!
