SlyAnimal Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 36,000 to finish by 11am sounds like a pretty sweet deal, really wish that they could timetable my classes to finish each day by 11am. How many teaching hours was that for each week? Sounds like the school might have simply compared what they're doing, with what other schools are doing, and decided that they have been giving you a really sweet deal over the past 10 years.

And they could have done a lot worse. Like fire the whole staff and offer to re-hire at you at a smaller salary and a 10 month contract. Be careful what you wish for.

Binden Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 True but im not one of those teachers who get by on 30-50g a month.in 16 years working here as a teacher, iv always been on the 100g mark.and refuse 2 stay in a school all day for a pittance.

Goanna Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 It wouldn't have anything to do with your spelling and punctuation skills would it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinneil Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 It wouldn't have anything to do with your spelling and punctuation skills would it?Spot on mate. His spelling and puntuation is ten times worse than mine. His is supposedly teaching kids (poor little mites) if that is their teachers English level.

thai3 Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Lets hope the op is not 'teaching' English. Thai teachers earn no where near 40k are always going in during the holidays and Sundays for training, but you don't see them moaning on the internet. If you don't like being well paid and don't like the School - then leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveAustin Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I didn't want to be the first to say it, op, but your prose really does suck. Tough to read. It's SMS speak. Perhaps acknowledge that you've been on a good number and they're putting it right. Money is tightening up everywhere. Unless this is a top international school, I know a fair few teachers in unis and institutes that are not on anything like that, especially such a cushy part time gig. I wouldn't hold it against the guy even if he is a tool. You've had several good years from them and they're generous enough in offering you a permanent position. Don't burn bridges.

DavisH Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Go moan to your boss he can then go to the Labour department to grass you up for not having two work permits (for both of your jobs). 100K is a lot for any teacher so stop yer bitching..
