Q: My coworkers want to kick my butt!

Just want everyone's opinion. Give me thumbs u/d.

I am involved in a lawsuit with my employer.  I'm trying to take down a dragon.  A major training school starting with an H.  Well they were illegally holding onto my FEC, so I filed a police report and had it returned to me.  Well the action also sparked the police to conduct an inspection of the school for illegal foreigners.  Not because I said something, but because they were curious I guess.  Are they forced to conduct an inspection when they get a complaint?  Guess what, there are about 20 teachers and only a handful of them are legal.  So now these illegal teachers are all f*cking pissd at me and want to kick my ass because of my collateral damage.  The training school is purposefully demonizing me and telling these other teachers I did it on purpose.  I just want to get fricken paid and get out of this stupid country.  Is it my fault or are these teachers just a part of the butterfly effect?  So, no one should ever complain to the police about their employer because it might get coworkers in trouble?   F*ck it, f*ck them, not my problem.  This country blows.

Are you in Hangzhou? I had similar problem with Helen, and FEB told me once, they've stopped issuing FEC to FT employed by Helen. You can find treads here on that. 

 

I wouldn't suggest to any foreigner in China to kick of anything too much! Just stop at the Police, and inform them about it. For the record, if nothing else. And relax, it's just pissed people talk, IMO.

Fuck them, they are the reason why this country and schools try to screw over legal teachers. And they usually are crap for teachers. I only met 3 people working on student visas that were competent as teachers.

As of now, you've got 6 Thumbs Up, and no down!

 

I think you've got your question answered!

 

It's standard procedure in humans - not taking responsibility. Those other illegals KNEW they weren't legal, but hey, who cares - right?? Now, their jobs are in jeopardy, and they might get kicked out. But, instead of acknowledging they were in the wrong in the first place, they've got to blame someone else - make them wrong.

 

Too many people in this world think everyone else around them will support them doing the wrong thing!

 

Just look at Wikileaks, and Snowdon, etc etc... Your colleagues want to kick your butt... people want Snowden & Assange, & Anonymous DEAD!

You didn't rat out the teachers. It's far too convenient that the police just *happens* to conduct an investigation. It's a typical scare tactic used to get the group on your side. Well, not *your* side, obviously. I've experienced scare tactics before (but not exactly your situation), working for a school that was too new to legally invite me: Bribes are in place and the police know all about you already.
Nothing is going to happen to the school. I don't know if something wiull actually happen to the teachers; that depends on how far the boss was willing to go to scare the employees. Your boss is likely stirring up some angry sentiment, and whether or not police are actually involved isn't particularly relevant to you. The colleagues involved are likely being tricked into feeling afraid and siding with the boss. Stand your ground, and don't play their game. Any collateral damage was not initiated by you.

Answer of the DayMORE >>
A: In my personal experience, teaching certificates have varied in releva
A:In my personal experience, teaching certificates have varied in relevance depending on the context and location. Here's a breakdown of each aspect:a) Getting the teaching job: Teaching certificates can certainly enhance your chances of securing a teaching position, especially in formal educational settings such as schools and language institutions. Many employers prefer candidates who have undergone specific training in pedagogy and instructional techniques, which these certificates often provide. However, other factors such as experience, references, and the demand for teachers in a particular area also play significant roles in the hiring process.b) Getting a higher salary than your uncertified competitors: In some cases, holding a teaching certificate can indeed lead to a higher salary compared to uncertified competitors. Many educational institutions have structured salary scales that take into account factors such as level of education, years of experience, and additional certifications. Holding a teaching certificate may place you in a higher salary bracket or make you eligible for certain salary incentives or bonuses. However, this can vary widely depending on the specific policies of the institution or organization.c) Getting promotions: Teaching certificates can be beneficial for career advancement and securing promotions within the field of education. They demonstrate a commitment to professional development and mastery of teaching skills, which are qualities that many employers value when considering candidates for leadership positions or administrative roles. Additionally, some promotions may require specific certifications or qualifications, making holding a teaching certificate essential for advancement in certain cases.Regarding which certificate yields better results, it largely depends on the specific requirements of the job market and the educational context in which you intend to work. For example:A Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) is often highly regarded in formal school settings and can be advantageous for those seeking positions in primary or secondary education.Montessori certification is valuable for individuals interested in working in Montessori schools or implementing Montessori principles in their teaching approach.A Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) certificate is particularly relevant for those seeking to teach English to non-native speakers in international contexts or language schools.Ultimately, the best certificate for you will depend on your career goals, the specific requirements of the positions you're interested in, and the preferences of potential employers in your target job market. It's essential to research the requirements and preferences of employers in your desired field and tailor your qualifications accordingly. -- ruqaiya761
