Unfortunately, this simply shows arrogance on behalf of the Chinese boss
Chinese bosses are very good at shouting 'It's in the contract' until such time as an FT needs to shout those words back at them
I joined my current school in Feb 2015 (halfway through the school year) and my contract CLEARLY STATES that airfare reimbursement will be made AT THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR
However, in Chinese it states AFTER COMPLETION OF ONE YEAR
Nowhere in the contract does it state that Chinese takes precedence over English - so the two paragraphs contradict each other
Did I get my airfare last June? hahahahahaha !
There's a huge sh*tfight going on right now due to an FT pulling-the-pin over a contractual issue. The SCHOOL is 100% at fault but of course, they blame the FT because it MUST be their fault - right?
I'll tell you guys more about it after the fight is over and a conclusion has been reached, but just remember.....contracts are worth NOTHING unless the school says so
I would LOVE to hear about ANY westerner who has taken an employer to court (in China) over a contractual issue and won !
