I'm glad that you've finally been paid, and the sarcasm in your reply is also noted.

As a foreign teacher who has had his share of problems with schools, I very much empathize with your predicament. Why did nobody answer you and give you advice, though?

Maybe like myself they wonder why somebody would STAY at an establishment that hasn't paid them for FOUR MONTHS. Bo, you should have been away from that school months ago. By staying there you are perpetuating the actions of crooked schools, exemplified by the one you work for. You should never have let the situation get to that point.
