I Was Cheated Again...

...and again by my company. I am feeling bad since yesterday night. The company's site and software system are down. It means that the online tutorial was compromised. I must say that it was a toxic night. It was a massive poor outcome for virtual teachers. Now, I earned absences and late. The company loves to deduct our money. Even if they claimed that they will give back these penalties, but not all. I just shared my sentiment about this cheating scheme of my company. How would you feel being cheated?

They shouldn't deduct money because it's their own fault

That's what I am whining about. I filed a formal complaint about it. I do not have high hope for this concern.

@Butterfingers If not, I will just let it go. I still believe in karma.

This company has been unfair for quite some time now. I do hope that they will be fair about this matter.

Before the pandemic, they had a mass termination. I believed that they are still doing it. If they did not consider my formal complaint letter, I will just let it go.

@jobelbojel It is fine. Bad karma will strike unexpectedly to them. God is not sleeping and knows who did bad things to others.

@amitkokiladitya I just ignore them as much as possible. I just do my work and earn from them. I never patronized them since day one. It is sad to say that I work with them because of the money.

That is drawback of working for company. Is it possible to make your classes on independent basis, like self-employed tutor?

It is not a good thing since we need to have a company to provide these students. In fact, it is a good business if you are into this online tutorial. Let me know, I will guide you.

@Shavkat I had similar experience in past by giving online lessons, but it was on independent basis. Thank you very much for your guidance, though I am currently into another occupation. Best of luck to you with your pupils and income!

I don't know if you can tell us your company name so that we will be aware also.That's really bad from your end. Due to this crisis many companies are cheating and some are scamming.

Obviously being cheated isn't a funny experience. However, as much as I feel bad that you're going through this experience,I would like to suggest you file a complaint through the necessary channels in your work place to seek justice .

I agree. I am sure that these Filipino staff cannot fight virtual teachers' rights. That's the reason why I always considered them puppets. If I can only file an anti-dummy case, I will do it. However, I am considering this in the future.
