Anonymous,
Thanks for taking the the time to share your unfortunate experience in Turkey with others. Hopefully, due to your efforts, others may save themselves a similar misfortune.
As I read your post, it sounded exactly like what many FTs experience in China. The situations are remarkably (eerily) similar, in many cases.
Therefore, if you are considering ESL employment elsewhere, avoid China! Otherwise, it is very likely that you will endure the China version of your Turkey experience.
The disconnect, rivalry, exploitation, and racism towards foreigners also runs high in China, and well as the constant barrage of sexist statements by students and colleagues.
Best wishes to you, wherever you go next...
