Telling her to act that way wasn't too smart.

 

It seems she returned to her employment on the basis of promises that were not fulfilled by the company.

Her behavior is called 'quiet quitting'...     the Op's wife appears to have played the game well and received a solid compensation package - I'd argue thats smarter than allowing herself be continuing to be bullied in the work place.

You seem to be triggered  more than my wife by losing her job.

 

Do you need counseling?

The only thing triggered is my b/s detector

Here is the official Canadian government site, same same but different.

 

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/who-can-apply.html

 

Does it really matter ???

 

The Op has showed a partial residence card, obviously with the personal info covered up, the card is accompanied with a handwritten note that shows he has the card in his possession right now. 

 

Unless the OP himself has jet black hair and a PR card, then who else could this card belong to ???

 

 

- Note: PR status can be obtained through a process called 'Outland Sponsorship' (application while outside of Canada, hence is perfectly feasible that the Ops Wife applied while in Thailand and they collected her PR card on a trip there (which was inadvertently cut short due to a job offer in Thailand).

- Under PR there is an obligation to remain in Canada for a total of 730 days (non consecutive) within 5 years, but, there is an exception to physical presence clause when accompanying a spouse overseas.

I think you are wasting your time with that guy. of course the PR application started 2 years before she got it.

The OP has a Canadian PR himself.

From the website links I posted it is clear what the qualifications are for PR, and you can't comply with any in 2 weeks, which is the time the wife was in Canada, posted here by the OP in another thread.

 

We all know you always know everything better, only you don't realize you are the one that is trolled.

Is the Op not a Canadian Citizen ??? -

IF not, what nationality / citizenship do you 'imagine' he holds ???

 

As a Canadian, the Ops Wife can obtain PR while outside of Canada (under Outland Sponsorship') and can receive her PR card in Canada, it would usually take 2-3 months and she would have to remain there. 

As you pointed out the Op said his Wife was there for 2 weeks (Op - reconfirm ?).

Travel is permitted without a PR card with the issuance of Permanent Resident Travel Document (while awaiting for the card to be delivered to a Canadian address).

 

Thus: Its not impossible for the Ops wife to be in the situation she is and holding a PR card having only been in Canada for a short period of time.

Yep - seems I do know better, or rather, the info you posted can be contradicted. 

 

Whether or not the Op is trolling - thats remains to be seen, the info he's posted is not impossible.

I am not trolling. You can message me in person, seem like a decent enough guy.

No need to prove anything...    There are just some haters who assume people posting outside of their range of experience are lying... 

 

... I suspect some are just a butt hurt because they married unemployable BG's and just can't accept that others have taken a different path.

The salary is 80,000 a month and if you work here like you say you should know that Japanese companies usually give a 2 month salary bonus, so around 100k per month plus performance bonus.

 

I never claimed anything different. The fantasies you made up are your own.

 

For your comment that "this proves nothing" you sure seem triggered.

The payout just includes the base salary, so what is BS?

 

You seem to be some kind of expert, so you should go a bit beyond just screaming bs bs.

 

Or are you another phony in Thailand?

Agreed...  I think the Op was just highlighting that instead if sitting back and doing nothing, his wife was willing to roll up her sleeves and seek out alternatives to sitting home and doing nothing, highlighting that there is opportunity for those willing to seize it.

 

The Op is clearly proud of his Wife which is a great positive example a successfully relationship, this seems to have really triggered the negativity in some.

she is chinese and worked for a Japanese company on a 80k/month salary.

 

and now is doing a cooking class.

She is burned out. 

 

Not many opportunities in her sector now. Japanese car manufacturers are in trouble.

 

Her company is selling bearings, so they are facing a lot of competition from Chinese.

 

She has Canadian PR, so if she doesn't get anything decent by April we are leaving.

 

Brrrrr

Yes she is 100% Chinese. What is your point with these dumb posts? This is the 5th time you asked this question.

 

"Chinese" is, the way you used it, an ambiguous term.

 

1. a descendant of a native of China

 

2. a person who is a national of China, ie has Chinese citizenship 

 

When the term is used indiscriminately, it is understandable that a reader takes it to mean one thing although the writer meant the other thing.

When describing a resident of Thailand it is normally assumed "Chinese" refers to ethnicity. Just saying. Not trying to start an argument.

It’s interesting how some individuals manage to summon some form of offence over others having a Thai-Chinese partner.

 

In some threads posters are accusing anyone who claims their spouse isn’t an Isaan farm girl of fabricating the story.

 

As for the OP's point, it’s a fair observation: his partner, upon facing unemployment, promptly secured new opportunities. This rather neatly dismantles the tired narrative that bar work is the only option for those in challenging circumstances. For those willing to roll up their sleeves, there’s evidently no shortage of alternatives. Perhaps it’s not the lack of opportunity that’s the issue, it’s the willingness to seize it.

 

All good, but the cooking course is not available to hundreds of thousands, just a few and probably not available everywhere in LOS and is it available all the time, or just once off?

Are you looking for a cooking course ??... or missing the Ops point that there are options out there for those willing.

Of course there are some options but not any available to vast numbers and probably not available all the time, in all locations.

What she did is not quiet quitting at all.  Read the definition of it.

From your previous thread , she was in Canada for merely a week or two.

How she can get Canadian PR without staying there?
Another evidence of you're a troll

 

Why is this so important to you lot? 

 

JFC, if there were no plants, trolls, or AI on this site it would be empty. 

given the majority of the original demographic are dead or near enough to it, they have to generate interest somehow.
