It's irrelevant what the school says, they are not the authority on whether you can work or not, whether it is on holiday or in school time.

You didn't have a work visa, so from official point of view you were never employed and the agency owes you nothing, no matter what work you do or don't do for them.

In such "wipe clean and start over" scenario, it usually happens so that after it is wiped and started over, there are questions about where my files are and why I cannot login to FB or access my email anymore.

So whatever you do, first make sure that all your personal/work files and passwords possibly stored in browser are copied or otherwise moved to some other place than the computer.

This would of course be smart thing to do periodically anyway, but especially in such case as yours.

If you can provide some more information about your PC (like what operating system and version) and the problems you are observing, someone here could have more motivation to have a look at it.

In Finland (pretty sure Sweden too), kebab is almost exclusively doner kebab, and associated with small restaurants run by migrants of Middle-Eastern and Russian origin.

99% time these establishments also serve pizza and falafel (vegetarian dish).

Besides feeding late night party-goers, they are also popular lunch destinations because they often have lunch offers starting at 5 EUR per meal.

@alienew: "The workers should hold them liable with brickbats."

Well, that would set a dangerous precedent, which would only result in only tighter enslaving of employees in future operations across the nation. And certainly overriding limited liability of iinvestors only serves to drive investments away from these places.

The second to last picture with all the shop signs actually reminds me of Hong Kong.

Perhaps off topic, but this is strikingly opposite of recent developments in first tier cities and in fact even our own apartment block in northern Kunming, where the authorities are forcing shops to remove excessive signs on the streets and in the walls - basically anywhere outside the immediate space the shops have leased.

Alright, if you go that way then everything is assuming. Assumptions is what made our ancestors come down from trees and cross a river and a mountain range. You assume quite a bit already when you go to sleep at night.

I am not assuming anything that didn't happen already. China already had a peasant revolution that was supposed to bring prosperity to all.

I am not asking for another revolution, but I am asking for that same spark. I do admit assuming that the Chinese state can contain such spark better this time.
