[villageidiotY2K]

Hi folks, need some advice regarding the subject.

Ive got a job offer and i accepted but only by replying to their email. i havent signed any contract.

now they are in the process of obtaining a work permit which will be completed bynext week. 

 

now ive got an another offer from a diff company which is heaps better than the previous,

and im more interested to work for this company.

 

so although ive accepted the offer from the 1st company by email, i havent signed any employment contract, 

so i could just ghost them and i wont be liabile for anything right? 

work permit will be issued next week and they have to cancel that, but i will have no obligation to burden that cost or what ever right?

wirk permit submission has being done with no documentation or signatures from you ?

Be respectful. Call them and tell them no deal.

Be straight up... 

 

Just tell them you had a better offer and have to respectfully decline their offer. 

 

But, ensure you have the second offer locked in first.

Yep, that's the first thing that came in to my mind too. Looks like we're not getting the full story here.
