It is two way traffic. Or should I just be selfish and let others advise me and not be bothered to try and help othe FT teachers when they post a message. I am just confirming what she already knows. Since I have been in the same situation - who better to advise.

Anyone else notice an anomaly here? Calling herself new to China, finding that EF is a bad place, but allegedly knowing enough to denounce the disreputable Perlandas.

Uh, considering the overwhelming number of negative posts/LOUD warnings on this website regarding Perlandas -- coupled with your own statement: "I have scant experience with this employment group (all negative). Have friends...well, I know people really, who have had some dealings with this character and it seems like he is a really "shifty" businessman/person..." I am stunned that you need to ask "What say YOU?" I say, What more do you need???
