欣鴻人工植牙會館_欣鴻牙醫診所

Other than the director occasionally treating us to drinks when she is in a good mood, and the director’s wife occasionally treating us to some delicious food she has cooked, there are absolutely no other advantages.

On the day I started working, I had already put on makeup—and it was a full face of makeup (I had never put on makeup before, and I didn’t have time to buy cosmetics, so I had to borrow them from my sister). In the morning, I wiped off the eyeshadow because it looked like I had been punched. The director’s wife said that my skin was too dark and that I wouldn’t do, because she wanted Japanese-style girls. So may I ask: are you looking for pretty girls rather than people who take their work seriously?

Later, during work, I was criticized for walking too slowly and told I looked like a child. I don’t understand what there was to criticize about walking normally. Did I have to run up the stairs and fall down for that to count as walking?

There was also something a senior coworker had taught me once (I hadn’t even done it once myself; I had only watched). I was expected to know it after just one explanation. I really have never seen anyone who could become completely proficient enough to work as a dental assistant without having done something themselves even once. Then, when I made a mistake (despite never having done it before), she said, “I don’t think you’re suitable for this. You don’t seem to have the desire to take this job seriously.” So I’d like to ask: who would still have the mental energy to do this job under those circumstances? I was already busy learning so many things; I had no energy left to worry about anything else. I also seriously tried to remember everything so I could do it myself (without looking at a model), and she said I wasn’t being proactive?

Finally, I admit that my memory may not be very good, and I failed the pharmacology exam. But the director’s wife directly berated me, saying, “You can’t even remember something this simple?” May I ask, am I your dog or something? Can’t you explain things properly instead of yelling? Do you think I’m your domestic worker?

Then, after I resigned, they would only pay my wages in cash and refused to transfer them to my bank account. Under the Labor Standards Act, wages must be paid on the designated payday (before this, my salary had been paid by bank transfer). So why did it have to be done this way after I left? Are you trying to evade taxes, thinking we wouldn’t know? Or do you think we’re easy to deceive?

All I can say is: please, absolutely do not come work here. This is by far the most outrageous and unreasonable workplace I have ever encountered in my life.

You can take a two-hour nap during work, and the boss’s wife occasionally gives you food, but you often have to work overtime.

If you’re thinking of working here, take note: The employment contract at this clinic was taken away before it was fully signed in duplicate, and even the salary was written in pencil. They also wouldn’t let me take a photo, and I don’t know why.

When I came for the interview, we agreed on a salary, but the money I received was actually the minimum wage plus bonuses. This meant everything depended on whether the boss’s wife felt like giving them and whether she was in a good mood. If something displeased her, she would remind us that various things were connected to the bonus and could affect our pay. I’ve never seen pay determined by someone’s mood before—it felt threatening 😫.

If you work at a normal pace and aren’t dragging your feet, you’ll still be nagged and criticized in all kinds of ways, because there are tons of surveillance cameras constantly watching the staff. If they don’t like you, you may be dismissed (they’ll ask you to sign a resignation form). It’s extremely competitive. Of the five people who started with me, only one is still there; the turnover is unbelievably high.

The scariest thing is still the boss’s wife losing control and shouting at the staff, even though it happened in the break room. Hearing it was still terrifying 😱. There were all kinds of reasons: poor performance, or not looking her in the eye when she was scolding someone.

After I resigned, the half salary I received worked out to only NT$880 for eight hours a day, because everything else was supposedly included in bonuses that were never paid at all.

I worked 178 hours and received a little over NT$29,000.

I worked 79 hours and received NT$12,000.

Even the boss’s foreign workers earned more than I did, haha…..

Also, after resigning, salaries are paid in cash, and you have to contact them several days in advance to tell them you’ll be coming to collect your pay on payday. Otherwise, even if you return your uniform that day, you may not be able to receive your salary. When I resigned, they themselves reminded me to come back on the 10th to sign, return my uniform, and so on. But on that day, the staff there said we had to reschedule for the following week because the clinic was too busy and so on. I clearly stated that this was a wage-payment issue, but the staff turned around and said that we hadn’t submitted and checked off all the returned items, and that they also needed time to help us look for them—as if it were our problem!

In the end, I called the Labor Bureau to clarify the situation and directly invoked the law against them. Only then did they let me collect my salary on payday (at 9 p.m. 🥲🥲). I don’t understand what’s wrong with paying wages on time. They kept making excuses, saying the uniform hadn’t been returned and so on. Only after asking the Labor Bureau did I find out that the uniform could be returned later, but wages must be paid on the actual payday.
