Excellent, astute advice, Choatle! No matter how many questions I asked, possible scenarios I anticipated and probed, I always missed a few critical inquiries. One must be incresingly creative with qurestions as employers are inceasingly clever and ambiguous.

Choatle is absolutely right! Getting clear, understandable, and agreebale terms is reasonable, and if the employer can't handle it -- go! Employers in China constantly force us to draw a line in the sand. Be prepared to do at times; otherwise, you're stuck. Avoid being pressured as much as possible. It's not easy.
