This is a very common theme and one that I could have written myself after reading the first line. The sums involved and accepted by her are outrageous and add up to a senior management salary in Vietnam. I have been coming to SEA since 1990. Many ... Read More

Jobs for English speaker by Mann123

Hy I am looking for job in Romania English speakers because I can't speake Romanian very well so if anybody now any company who hiring English speakers please let me , thanks in advance

ukteacher

You should really check your spelling and grammar before you advertise as an English speaker. Not easy to spell in English but easy to check these days. These errors don't make you look like an English speaker to potential contacts. good luck Read More
