I agree it sounds crap, and is frankly insulting to the older teachers.

At my current middle school I am due to leave, the last teacher, a younger Canadian GW and the teacher before him a younger brit GW, both let the woman who is in charge of the sports room, have free roam of the FT's flat to do her laundry in the washing machine and take a shower in the spare bathroom. I put a stop to it from day 1, and was told by my FAO that I am arrogant and don't understand China....he soon shut up when I threatened to leave if there was anymore nonsense or skullduggery.

GW's are [edited], as they make it harder for all FT's in China imho, [edited]
