1. It's an old, decaying, decrepit building with old, decayed, decrepit resources (not to mention an old, decayed, decrepit owner.)

2. The Italian staff i.e secretaries etc are cold and unfriendly which is a disease that has spread from the totalitarian boss down.

3. They expected me to drive the most dangerous, shockingly unroadworthy cars you've ever seen, 30 year old fiat pandas, falling apart, indicators not working, no side mirrors etc. in chaotic Italian traffic.

4. When I refused to drive their cars and gave notice they tried to NOT PAY ME.

5. The female boss is Hitler incarnate.

Nuff said.

Verona is beautiful. Work there. But FIND ANOTHER SCHOOL!

Hi,

I'd be interested to know when you worked at this school so I can put this in perspective and find out whether you are referring to current premises (I believe they have moved recently) and staff or ex buildings and staff!

Many thanks!

I worked there over a year ago, so if they have new premises, great.

However, beware if it hasn't changed owners. If it's still owned by an Italian woman working for her mother, she is Hitler's lovechild, and will force you to drive crappy old life-threatening cars which I wouldn't be seen dead in (or probably would have been seen dead in had I agreed to drive one) and who will do everything in their power to make you work a grueling 30 contact hours per week and withhold your salary until they run out of excuses not to pay you.

Be warned.

Just to clarify, I deleted my previous question as there was some confusion about the name of the school, and my post referred to another school.
My previous post on this thread is now also irrelevant....
