![]() | swimming alone in China Recently received a draft contract from a school on the coast of southern China, one of the clauses reads 'It is prohibited to swim alone', I hadn't planned on swimming alone out to a foreign submarine and selling state secrets but anyone care to comment? |

![]() | Re: swimming alone in China It's either they translated from Chinese incorrectly, OR they are flexxing their muscles by ordering you what to and what not to do. Be careful of schools that want to control your private life as well as work life. Yeh, I hope you don't go swimming to some parked Australian sub to share secrets.

![]() | Re: swimming alone in China That's a new one for me. Let's just hope they don't have someone following you around enforcing it!
