They offered me a job. The salary was feeble - VND38 mil.

First 20 days unpaid.

SKIP!


Shocked

That pay works out to be just under 1,700 USD a month. May I ask, how many teaching hours a week was that for? However, the one thing that really got me is the "First 20 days unpaid". They expect you to work for twenty days for nothing? What the hell!

For an entry-level gig, the pay is not the problem. It's in the ballpark. However, how the hell are they justifying not paying a teacher for twenty days' worth of work? I'm sorry, but, that's obscene!
