I don't think that is what the earlier writer had in mind when she wrote about her employer and it's not what I mean. The worst cases make any discussion about cultural values largely irrelevant. Yes, these school-owners can often get new teachers they will then exploit and lose. One could get deeply into metaphysical and philosophical debates about the terms and their applications, but this is completely unnecessary when talking about these cowboy schools and their unfortunate employees. After a certain point one can't help ultimately using one's own judgement based on one's own cultural conditioning.
All cultures have good and bad points depending on who is doing the interpreting.
Some points a Westerner will find in Asian cultures while in a teaching position will be difficult to accept. Some points an Eastern employer will find in their Western employee will be difficult to accept. They are not interested in a shared accommodation between the two interested parties. They just want to make a fast buck and don't care who they stomp on while doing it. On the other hand, people in different cultures can come to a consensus about certain objectively good or bad points in any given situation.
