Grievance

black and white seems to be very important especially consensus has to be made in between different parties.


i was supposed to be provided with 1st month free accommodation in the uk but i had only stayed in the hotel for one week due to the fact that i managed to find a room therefore i moved out earlier. prior to moving out i spoke to the admin if i could have the remaining balance from the hotel expenses credited into my account since i move out earlier. she agreed that this should not be a problem. things went well and i moved to a new place and was waiting for the 1st month salary. 


unfortunately when i checked my account balance today i found out that they never banked in the remaining balance into my account. i spoke to the boss with regards to this and what he told me was that i will not be paid anything from the balance. i was like wtf because this contradicted with what the admin and i had agreed. he further explained that: "you are not supposed to make any money from the company through this way, by right you should have found your accommodation prior to coming to the uk and in fact the company is not going to take the responsibility for funding your stay in the uk".


i was quite surprised when he told me this, didnt we agree that i will be provided with 1st month accommodation in the uk because this is my 1st time coming to the uk? didnt we agree that the balance will be credited into my account if i were to move out earlier? i could not really find a place in the uk not until i have seen the places and rooms myself. cant he understand this basic theory that i am not supposed to simply rent a room without viewing the room and its surrounding, as well as the safety aspect? if i never moved out earlier then i do not have to pay for the 1st month rental in advance. when i was trying to explain this to him what he told me was "we appreciate that you have found a room this quick and save the company money". @@


alright i am foolish enough that i did not instruct the admin to prepare a black and white stating that the refund will be credited to my account. somehow the boss is wrong to comment me saying that i am trying to make the money from the company through this cheap skate way, i never looked for a room before coming to the uk and etc. 


this is very insulting and it really hurts! A good lesson learnt indeed.
