Hey all. I thought of a new idea which could involve esl veterans and people alike. There are always schools which are blacklisted and somehow they get another teacher who doesn't know that the school is blacklisted and gets violated. Some schools abroad must be dealt with. What would happen if their teachers just didn't show up at the airport? Well here's where esl veterans and other people in general could come in. Anyone who has a passport for that matter. They apply at that school (one which they know is blacklisted) send them resume, passport copy, whatever. They send you the documents you need to get the visa put into your passport, you get the visa (one which you'll never use of course), you tell the company who got you the visa that you will arrive at a certain airport at a certain time. Just make sure there's an actual flight scheduled to land there. Any school who has 3 teachers which they absolutely need who doesn't show up like they said they would, well that school could be put right out. This is something we could do to the absolutely horrible schools. What do you think?

why not apply and then after everything is said and done tell them your reseach has pulled up quite a few negative responses and you are not going to accept the position.

Nothing burns like the truth.

Good idea, except getting the visa part, if you gotta pay for the visa, that sucks. Better to just tell them you got the visa and then not show up at the airport. I suppose if you had a particular school, you could ask for someone to mess up that school's recruiting, but it seems like too much effort.
