Point out the inconsistencies you accuse me of.

I've pointed out yours and you've failed to respond.

If anyone wants to stop posting, there will be no complaints from me. I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one to feel relief.

I'll keep posting because I love Mexico, I love EFL and I love the students at my school. I guess others keep posting for all the opposite reasons.

Please address the message, not the messenger. You just got very personal Playa.


I was addressing the message. I just did so in a manner that you could relate to. I find it amusing that you would throw the "personal" flag on anyone, considering the fact that you have been on a week long attack on Greg and his business.

How nice of you to reduce your message to the bare bones so someone of my limited intelligence could understand.

I have nothing against greg, I oppose business models that do not support decent wages for teachers. Huge difference.

I'm a teacher. You have to be ready for all kinds of different students. Wink

Greg,


"Point out the inconsistencies you accuse me of."

For every hr taught by your teachers you PAY 32 pesos. If you disagree check the meaning of PAY. No mention of airport pickups of easy key delivery services in the dictionary, strangely.


"...I'll keep posting because I love Mexico, I love EFL and I love the students at my school. I guess others keep posting for all the opposite reasons."

I also love Mexico. I left a cushy life in Europe to come back because it owns my heart! I post because i see an imbalance on this forum, not because i am fundamentally against anyone's opinion,not even yours. Smile

Address the message and not the messenger is the way we do things here. Threads that do not follow this path often end up locked or deleted.
