Is it all down to lack of respect???

[MizzMarr]

It is a common courtesey to give 2 weeks up to 30 days notice at a job... otherwise you leave people hanging. In this case kids. just sayin'.

 

[bebero]

opportunities are opportunities. every company in the world would fire someone without a two weeks notice if they needed to.
the kids will have another teacher, end of the story! what's so terrible?

 

[bebero]

oh and i dont know why you talk like 'scamming your best friend' it's a common practice here. it depends on the person, not on the nationality

It's also a fact that if I were a teacher here, and the mother of one of my student's came to tell me how 'grateful' i should be for earning US $120 / week, and how i should crawl around kissing the dirt she walks on for this 'amazing' salary, I would probably want to change jobs too.

Thank God this woman managed to escape you 'Fif'

I hope the person performing your open heart surgery doesn't get invited out to a nice dinner during your operation. Karma's a bitch like that.

Great point..if 'Fif' needs open heart surgery and her doctor only gets paid $8000 pesos / a month they wont be able to resist a nice a meal

Especially when operating on a foreigner who has spent the last 4 weeks telling him what an honour it is for him to operate on someone so superior as her

Talk about in need for an attitude adjustment

8000 pesos isnt much
its less than 2k a month which is poverty in most countries
i applaud her for seeking more pay

Poverty? Whether gross or net, it is far from poverty.

Please note I mentioned nothing of youth as I know many 20 somethings that have more compassion, ethics and professionalism that many 50 somethings I know.

I haven't observed any of the following in Argentina, but when I was living in Chile:

I can't count the number of times when members of the parent generation (30-40-50-60-ish) have thrown empty bottles out of the window from a car on the road, but I have seen the very young (14-15-16-ish) get up from their seats, walk 5-10-15 meter to drop their chocolate paper in a thrash bin, then return to their seat.

I have a hunch this is the result of impulses from friendships in far away countries through the internet.

Lesson Learned: In much of the "first" world you don't shit in your own nest. I want to my country to be a "first" world country = I don't shit in my nest.

I am definitely not an optimist when it comes to human behavior, but based on such observations I think (hope) we will see better times in El Cono Sur.

oh i just read that she made 8k a month. even if it's true, why does she HAVE to stay at a job? it's a freakin job!! she's free! she's not a slave!
she didn't hurt anyone and helped herself.your son will recover. i think you are overreacting

With that attitude, if you had been one of my employees, you wouldn't be.
