Should Taiwan drug test foreign English teachers regularly?

Jesus Fucking Christ, we got ourselves a live one here…

I’m creating an online presence. My teaching abilities are lacking so I’m trying to generate a post count that I can perhaps take to someone in authority where I can, hopefully, monetize my anti-foreigner persona. I really don’t give a deuce what people do with themselves in their free time. Don’t tell anyone though.

The question is who’s going to pay for these tests. I bet if there was a law for it, buxiban wouldn’t do it to save money.

So I find any legislation to drug test teachers pointless.

Why would they want to drug test teachers? So that they give better results to their students?

I don’t. I’m saying it’s useless if they do.

But which teachers should be drugged? The IELTS and SATS ones or the buxiban test teachers, too?

It would certainly make going to work more appealing.

This thread just took another direction.

Maybe oxytocin and dopamine could be argued for.

How about drug testing all high school students :rofl:
Me thinks Ketamine may show up more than predicted (I’m being sarcastic about the testing but not the Ket)

Taiwan’s problem is (like the US) the unfair prosecution of pot users. Think of the two Fulbright ETAs who got caught hauling a buttload from Taipei to Kinmen. One of them just got deported, the other went to jail for a few months, came out on bail, hung out at his former school with his former students for two weeks before going back to jail for another month. He served far less than a year for a 7 year sentence. And he was welcome to be around small children while he was awaiting sentencing. I can’t even find the news articles about it because it was covered up so well.

In the meantime, I took multiple videos of a male coworker with male students sitting on his d*** in the office. Every administrator and teacher in the building seemed to come by and talk to this teacher in that time and not one person thought anything was wrong with it. When I brought it up with the principal, I was told he that he often had kids sleep over at this house, in his bed with him, but “it’s nothing to worry about. He’s married”. Ok, yep, in any normal world we call that child molestation, but in Taiwan we pretend it’s not happening.

Point is, Mary Jane should be encouraged compared to the (apparently) legal things that happen here

How old were these students? I’m very doubtful that the parents let the students sleep at his house in his bed. I’m doubtful that his.wife, the students, the Taiwanese teachers and the parents said nothing. What do you mean sit on his dick, were they like little kids sitting on his knee or actually on his dick? Doubtful story.

We’re going to need to see those multiple videos in order to independently verify your dubious claims.

I just dug around trying to find a video that wouldn’t reveal my school or the students in some way, and that’s a no, so you’re not going to see the videos unless someone knows someone who works for the Apple daily, in which case I will happily send the videos (which are now months old). The (always male) students would sit fully on the teacher’s crotch while using his computer. The teacher would lean all the way back with his hands clasped behind his head, dick clearly being ridden. They’re junior high and one is somewhat special needs, the other in and out of juvie. Literally every former student of the school (he’s taught there for 20+ years) thinks he’s a total creep and knows he plays his 關係 disgustingly well.

I’m totally serious about the Apple Daily. But they’ve been bought off by our principal before, so good luck.

*all that is in past tense because after I complained, he was clearly spoken to by someone, because students that came to sit on his lap were asked to sit in a separate chair.

Just contact them via https://tw.appledaily.com/index/complain/

Back when I worked for a publisher I walked into a junior high school class and the teacher and a couple of female students were looking at something similar to porn. Wtf. Of course nobody did anything.

What is similar to porn except porn?

Well a lot of stuff actually sits on the grey scale. They switched if off quickly so I couldn’t confirm one way or the other. There’s a lot of dodgy teachers in Taiwan.
