There are many of you that wish to come to the US. That we can all agree on. But the fashion that some of you are doing it in; is quite frightening. And I should say, intolerable.
1. When you sign a letter of intent, it is the same as signing the contract. It is an agreement, and you agree to abide by it.
2. Do not accept an offer, if you are just planning to continue shopping for something better. You have then taken away a position for someone else that may have wanted it. At least until you have officially declined it.
3. Some of you are coming to the US with the idea of buying your contract out right away. Don't do it. If you do not like the contract, do not sign it.
4. Contracts are legally binding. Unless the agency or facility were terrible or did not have work for you, just to back out because you got a better offer is just not acceptable. Adn you have to have just reasons for a contract to be cancelled, not just because you found something better, but real reasons.
5. There are actually hospitals that will not petition for Filipinos right now, because of contract cancelling, etc. And this is right in California.
6. No one is going to buy you out of your contract for $20,000, so please get that idea our of your head. just more empty promises that someone is making.
7. If you decide to try and be sneaky about things, it will only come back to bite you, and you will find issues of even being able to keep your job. And remember that if you get fired, you will be responsible for paying out the cancellation clause of your contract. No way around that.
Sorry to have to be so candid, but I am seeing more of this everyday, and I am not happy with it.
This is being closed for a cooling down period. Boxing gloves can come off. For those of you that take a topic and turn it into a war, especially when you are new here is not how to do things and want help.

lawrence01,
i didn’t mean to stir a fight when i made a response about her post – especially with you.
you seemed very critical and very passionate of judging what i wrote. so what? why can’t you get past my unedited post? are you really that pissed?
