Hello. I was teaching English and was replaced by my school by somebody else without any reason. I am pretty sure they hired somebody who is not allowed to teach because he or she is cheaper. Does anyone know what the process will be IF I call the hotline?
Why are you so sure of this? How do you know the new one is illegal?
Thereās a āhotlineā?
They didnāt give you any reason? Tell them youāll go to the labor dept if theyāre not forthcoming or if they broke your contract without even an explanation.
(Iām giving you the benefit of the doubt in assuming you took your teaching duties seriously and were never warned, or had complaints about you, right?)

Thereās gotta be more to this story. And how do I know that providing you with information isnāt making life more difficult for a better, more qualified person who replaced you?
If the person is qualified to teach in Taiwan, nothing will happen. Right?
So youāre saying that a qualified teacher is beyond censure? No, this isnāt the case.
I think so. And if they think the info is not very sure, it is possible they do nothing.
What reason do you have in thinking theyāre not qualified? Just casting out phone calls to the law in the hope something sticks for a personal vendetta would be low.
Did you have warnings about your performance or conduct before you were let go?
No. But I know they thought my hourly pay was too high. Makes sense now?
No
Youāre being extremely vague. If you want to get people on your side youāre going to have to go through what happened step by step. They said they thought your hourly pay was too high. And this is unfair becauseā¦?
so, they replaced you with someone cheaper.
This part is logical.
But, it is not logical that someone is cheaper, so must be illegal.
I am no trying to bring anyone on my side. I only want to know if somebody knows the process, thatās it. And frankly, if the person is not working illegally he has nothing to be afraid of. If the person is, then he must be aware of the possible consequences.
Not buying what youāre selling. Iāve seen people use legal procedure to hound innocent people many times. Good luck I guess.
You need proof, nobody is gonna waste time because you are angry. The new person can be better teacher than you, more friendly than you and maybe have a better salary than you.
At this point, Iād be more worried about my revenge fantasy backfiring if I were you. I mean, you donāt want your job there back do you? And if not, what exactly is your motive?
But entirely illegal.
