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 did the right thing, no need of explanation for you certainly didn't point them out. Its their problem not yours. Walk like a lion.
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.
