Sorry to your sis. I will surely ring them.

Most employers sent back thankful letter to me. This restaurant is a big busy restaurant. The manager said I have a wonderful CV better than her. She looks lovely, young and I feel she did this because of her command responsibility. But they must follow the Jobcentreplus rules.

Very well done, lass ... and more power to your elbow!
Thanks Arth! We have same height. I believe size doesn't matter to stand up my rights. Send my thanks to your sis.

Thanks Leah! Kapag may katwiran, ipaglaban mo! That our saying goes in Pinas.

Wherever I am, I do stand for my rights and rights of others sometimes. I remember when I was in Taiwan. We had a strict supervisor. We were assigned at QC Inspections and my co-worker asked permission that she feel want to go toilet for a pee. She was not allowed to do that because we had just a break an hour ago. I asked our supervisor if I can speak to him privately.

He let my co-worker to go to toilet but he told the manager about it. Since then, they kept an eye to me.

I was sent home after one year although my contract was 2 years. I went to our agency and told them to return back my agency fee, as I paid 130,000 pesos. They said it will never happen.

I went to POEA and filed a case against my agency. They were sent a letter that they will be under sheriff after 3 times of not attending our hearings.
I got back completely 130,000 which I didn't expect the full amount I paid.
That money helped a lot in my internet cafe business.
