This and many other posts are why I say that ESL businessmen and managers in China are the most pathetic human beings I have ever met. Not only does he totally rip off your son, give you a bad name for referring them, and continues to disrespect you after false promises, but he is surprised when your son decides to leave and even has you guys stalked and threatened by a bunch of goons. I would say this is animal like behavior, but I would obviously be insulting animals.

It's beyond comprehension. Does he expect your son to starve, be treated like a doormat, and his own personal slave and like it? I honestly don't know what goes through the mind of these idiots. I hear so many stories of them ripping people off and then getting mad when they want to leave. Yes, it's a major inconvenience for them, to find another person to rip off. I could understand if it was just one sick and mentally diseases individual but it seems to be a mass of them all around Asia. Do they all attend a school for ripping off foreigners and then trying to make them feel guilty when the foreigners want to leave? "What about the students, they are innocent! Don't leave the students!"

Honestly, I have met some stupid people back home but I have never even fathomed that this kind of stupidity existed. That's why so many foreigners get cheated. Of course, it could be because they don't do enough research, but I think the sole reason is simply because they can't imagine that such low-life, degenerate, creatures that call themselves 'human' could ever exist in the Education sector (or in any sector).

The phenomenal amount of selfishness is mind blowing. Thank you for your warning.
