As for detractors, well, when two people make the nonsensical "sense of entitlement" charge (and one is obviously dittoing the other), and another calls one a fool… it can seem less than generous, especially when it's way off the mark.

Wow! Raoul Duke is dittoing another poster's opinion regarding the 'sense of entitlement' charge you have mentioned! Coz the other poster posted it first! If so, that other poster will feel flattered! That will have surely made his day! Dunno if what you said will have made R's day!!

BTW, what can also seem less generous is when a sarcastic comment is made about foreign teachers on 5,000 RMB a month enjoying cheap Chinese beer and noodles, and having to work summer camps to make ends meet. Not true, the noodles part nor the necessity to work ummer camps. I for one earn 5,000. I HATE noodles and I'd NEVER work at a summer camp, and I can afford to eat relatively well.

Anyways, so what if you've got some detractors. Hasn't everyone?
