If having taken a grievance to your employer you are met with the "well this is china" attitude you can literally translate it as "I don't give a ####" .

Of course fts should expect some cultural differences which will effect their professional and private lives while working in china. However, when they come across such issues what is required is a degree of empathy and support. Instead what they often receive is the cold shoulder. Man-management is usually lacking in schools in china.
