Sendelta puts teachers in public schools to teach AP courses. I think they have some other lines of business too, but this is how I know them. I found an ad for them to teach AP Physics. I went to their office and did a demo, they were very impressed. We talked for a bit and Helen made an offer. I was talking to some other schools so I told them I'd decide soon. I found out some more details about the job. I had to spend one night a week supervising kids during study time. She originally said from 7-9, later it turned out to be 7-10pm. I objected to this but they didn't budge. She begged me to take the job, it was starting soon. I really liked everything else about the job though, so I accepted it.

Then after that we were talking about the housing situation. It was hard to understand what she was saying. I found out it was 13.5k with housing or 15.5 without. But then she was quoting me the prices for the 2 choices of apartmets they had in Zhuhai. Why'd she quote the prices if these were the ones the school would cover? She then told me that the school would cover hotel for one week when I arrived. She called me late at night then to discuss it further, she changed her mind and said that if I got my own housing, they'd only give me a hotel for 2 days when I arrived. I objected to this, mostly because of the way she kept changing her story. I still wanted the job, but I couldn't be at a place that operates like this. We had plans to meet the next day in Zhuhai and sign the contract at the school.

Next day, she's unreachable all morning and half of the afternoon. I call the office, nothing. Eventually she calls me. She said that she left her phone and home so she couldn't call me. Why not call me from your office phone? Too busy with meetings. Obviously none of that made sense, we had plans to meet that day for something very important. Not even an email. Then she told me that she didn't like my objections to her changing her mind all the time, so she didn't want to sign a contract with me. We were supposed to be at the school in Zhuhai at that time signing stuff and getting the books, but I had no notice of this until the middle of the afternoon that day. She told me how urgent it all was and was also angry that I didn't make a decision right away. But once I did, this is how she reacted. I was all packed and ready to go and spent all day wondering what was going on just to find out that they wouldn't take me for this urgent position.
