can you not go above your english b1tch of a boss to the directors (unless she owns the company).

maybe they will be more reasonable if your threaten them with legal action which you could admit to possibly losing but point out that you will drum up as much negative publicity as you can and that this alone will cost the company more in business than if they had just settled the dipute reasonably.

you need to fight dirty as they are. even if it means standing outside the school with a multi-lingual flier explaining the injustice you've been through and perhaps a petition from your students will surely cause enough of a stir to warrant a peaceful settlement.

if i was your buddy in hk, i;d be there supporting you for your rights. the school would have no chance. and this is just playing above board.

oh, i heard korea and taiwan can be a b1tch...try japan. they have very good working practices and i;ve found that the japanese have a great reputation for honor that precedes them.

plus they are the only country in asia that doesn;t dicriminate against skin color for native english teachers.
