Dear freesoul,

Nice of you to spread the rumor, though - a dirty job, but hey, someone has to do it.

Regards,
John


Dear John,
It was not intended as a tabloid piece of news, so plz don't kill the messenger Cool
But again!!had FWC lurkers here put in their 5 Fils, we wouldn't have gone that far debating the mechanism of news and rumors .
Best,
F

Dear freesoul,

I'm sure your intentions were good - but then, you probably know what they say about good intentions paving the road to . . . . Very Happy

I also know the Middle East is always rife with rumors, thanks in large measure to the great difficulty in getting the truth. But I would think twice about spreading one, especially one that so many are eager to believe is the truth.

Have you heard the rumor? HCT is planning to decrease EFL teacher salaries by 99% Very Happy.

Regards,
John

Yea, it would be hilarious to see the 99% tittle-tattle turning into the latest buzz at HCT's inside corridors. Laughing

O.K., I'm taking this post as a confirmation of the 99% decrease of salary at HCT.

It's not like is hasn't been discussed by the "Policy Council"!

It sounds as though you are being VERY rude.

It's just an observation!

Dear JohnCB,

Your choice - personally, I think a long-distance hero is the most pathetic sort of bully - someone acting like he's tough knowing that he's both anonymous and safe.

But to each his own.

Regards,
John
