In China, an employee has to agree to be fired, the word for "fired" and "redundant" is the same.
This is true for privately owned companies operating in China with local and/or foreign employees.
If an employer does not respect you and insists you resign, it is an illegal firing and will ensure a law suit will give you at least 2-3 times what a straight resignation will give you.
A large company with good HR will fire you very carefully, usually offering at least 3 or 4 months pay, sometimes a lot more and also request you resign under these terms to protect their reputation.
Often, foreign companies who think the terms are better for them than the UK or the USA, are very surprised when they are successfully sued so often
Under Chinese labour law, if they want you out you can negotiate a different work arrangement as well, if the employer does not like your terms and you have not committed a serious crime against the company, illegal firing is the only way to go.
I was refused an AMEX card a fee years ago because 7 years prior to that I lost a mobile phone on a contract. At the time I had a very small income and the loss of the phone forced the network to demand payment of the entire remaining 14 months contract period in 1 month. I could not pay. What's funny is this didn't stop me gaining credit with other banks. At the time of rejection I had around 27,000 AUD in credit from different banks and an excellent payment histroy with no debt.
Actually, I think that's why they rejected me, because I was using the initial no interest for 6 months balance transfer option to borrow nearly the full amount of a new credit card and put into a savings account for that time. It gave me a good credit history and made me money at the same time. I was also offered limit increases.
AMEX probably would have ignored the 7 year old default if it wasn't for my lack of debt. They only want interest payers. Not system abusers
In perl, the meaning of moose meese and mooses are all made unambiguos by context, just like any incorrect form of spoken english.
In both cases, meaning is conveyed and understood. Its grammar nazis that feel the need to both understand what you did wrong and pretend you didn't make any sense at the same time. Only in distinctly ambiguous cases that cannot be inferred by context, does asking politely or programs fail to interpret actually apply.
I'd better stop that paragraph now, since non-perl fans probably failed to parse it.
Around 4000 different chemicals from tobacco smoke, many carcinogenic, but pure pot gram for gram against tobacco has 4 times the tar - takes years of abstinence to expel it from the lungs - plus pot tar goes deeper because the lungs are opened up more during inhalation. Still, smoking is just one way to do it - obviously not the best.
Great server, mostly similar appications to Windows, only more flexibilty built-in plus expansiveness limited only by your imagination. That puts Windows in the toilet. I see you.
Ideas that are described as 'hard to concieve' in relation to the level of paradox inherent to them are not hard as a product of the person concieving in any way.
IQ is certainly not the best measure of ability in disparate fields of knowledge either.
The best part is, you can only decrypt the other drives by first doing XOR with the randomised drive, but they don't which is which. Its not just going to take them years to discover one of the drives is a decoy, but that decrypting the other drives is dependent on knowing this.
and yet John Howard said he had a mandate... not his party, just himself!
Nothing got Johnny aroused more than hearing the words "mandate mandate mandate".

Seriously, I feel the pressure to enter management and your blunt but accurate words make me feel a lot better about being a middle aged techie.
In China, staff will see your tip as an attempted bribe, not quite knowing what you expect for this tip and also worrying they will lose their job.

Yeah, this was some time ago a Motorola brick phone using CDMA with no removable SIM.
I recall saying something rather tersely along the lines of "If I hadn't reported it stolen I could pay it off monthly as per usual"
They basically want the phone number back if you can't use it.

I think the key to this is that when a car brayx, it slows down and will eventually stop moving.

You've been using Linux simce 1998 and you can only come up with a handful of applications you'd want to run on your cellphone? You're doing it wrong.

Wow, these "faxes" must be very small to fit into the wires! Are you sure they don't use regular tubes ?
You forget the costs involved for Apple to publish and distribute are close to nil compared to a real book in a publishing house.
