[quote=YENJAMES,283622]Well rather than starting a new thread I will just stick to this one. I arrived Baiyun International Airport at 8:15pm after a relatively uneventful trip Atlanta to LA than on to Guangzhou. The first sign of trouble was when no one from the company was anywhere to be seen. So luckily I had purchased a sim card for my phone and proceeded to make phone calls...lol I finally got in touch with the recruiter that hired me who is in Malaysia, he in turn contacted the company who called the hotel who said they couldn't find me. The hotel sent a driver back to the airport and I found him. Arrived at the hotel and during check in asked for my credit card I said no the company is paying for my stay. he hotel made some calls in which I was informed that they just made my reservation and that I should pay and be reimbursed later to which I replied **** NO we are not going to play this game you need me more than I need you not to mention I have a family to support that is in Jakarta now that depends on the credit cards and bank account. They told the clerk something and he checked me in. Got a call from the recruiter who said I thought we had an understanding you would pay and be reimbursed, I said no I told you that my finances are being strained from having my family go to Jakarta while awaiting the transition here in China and if I could I would pay but since you decided to book a 5 star hotel that it was not my problem I would have been fine with a boarding house so we amicably agreed to settle the finances tomorrow. Now I'm in my room had dinner chatted with my wife but still feel bothered, my wife said I did the right thing by sticking to how I know things should be and that if I let them get away with just this tiny thing they would feel like they could get away with more. But I don't want to get off on the wrong foot with this new company, so does anyone have any thoughts or did I handle the situation properly? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Oh BTW sorry for such a long post.[/quote]
