The school is in New Taipei.
The woman who runs it is not above firing him in a fit of pique, in fact she has done something similar before, is why he is cautious about the all-out-war tactic.
So heâs working for people who are deliberately screwing him over, but he doesnât want to lose that job? Iâm not going to try to stay with a company that tries to steal that kind of money from me. Are jobs that hard to come by these days, or is there something else going on?

Itâs a special letter you write on special paper you get at the Post Office (well, companies usually have some computer set up to do it) in triplicate, and then send to the offending party. The Post Office keeps a copy, you get a copy, and the recipient gets a copy. So thereâs evidence of what you actually sent. Theyâre often used to get people to realize youâre actually serious about a matter and the next step is legal action.
I donât know if itâs still the case or not, but this used to be a cool chance to get an NT$0.005 coin, since thatâs what a sheet of that paper cost and you needed three sheets. I always found the copying of these letters in Chinese in the cool air-con of the Post Office a very soothing and Zen-like experience.

Ta.
is there something we are missing about this guy? why would he be scared of losing a job that is not paying him properly and why wouldnât he post here himself?
Youâre mighty suspicious 
Iâm posting because itâs just not the kind of thing he would do.
And we are leaving taipei in 3-4 months; finding a job for such a short time frame canât be easy.
well it was a bit of a head scratcher. it makes more sense with that information but still i donât see why he should be shook of a boss that is screwing him over when you have plenty you can do about it.
