In response to This is a broad ranging 10-month salary scam across China (Warren)

I understand what you're saying, Warren...but actually this isn't even close to a new phenomenon...and not really a scam.

Universities and public schools in China run on a 10-month academic year. They always have.
Over the summer they have few to no students to teach.
Because of this, 10-month contracts are THE NORM for these institutions. Always have been.

It's important for expat teachers to BE AWARE of this phenomenon, and to plan for it- negotiate a 12-month contract with summer classes if available, or plan something else for that 2-month hiatus (travel, return home for a visit, find a short-term summer gig, try to save enough to get by over the summer).

But it's not a scam. If it were, I'd be shoulder-to-shoulder with you screaming about it.
