This is the fight or flight response, understandable and clear for a situation where a worker is losing about themselves or in fact, he lost valuable work.

     Take the case of Mike Doe. Mike is an American who came to Thailand after he was offered a teaching position from one of the largest agency in Thailand. Was before his arrival here, he promised to repay the amount of his travel expenses, decent housing and make a livable home with you . pay Mike agreed in the employment anywhere in Thailand without regard to the difficulty of the shift are assigned to bring. But to his surprise, heMove was to distant schools, only five times over a period of one months. None of what he promised before and after he signed the employment contract was always given to him by the agency. Toward the end of his one-month stint, the agency began concocting horrible stories, so that it is a valid reason to terminate Mike, had the worst of which is the allegation of child abuse.
Of course, Mike was furious. Not only did he spend a lot of money for travel and subsistence costs, butbe sullied reputation followed him everywhere he went.
     To remedy this situation, the agency offers to pay him 45,000 THB, and threatened him if he would not accept the money, he is thrown from Thailand in a short time. The amount is offered, not even enough to cover the refunds through him. To make matters worse, he was forced to sign a waiver of legal action against the agency file under the guise of a "voluntary resignation letter." Mike was actually completed as far asThe agency is worried when he received a text message saying, "You're fired, man!"
To be sure, suffer many of the foreign teachers who came to Thailand the same fate. Then what is a foreigner right of employees in such a situation? Does he have a constant to the agency for their illegal activity, he should fight or simply to the ridiculous amount, sign the waiver, and return on board the next plane to America?
