The Dog Days of Tripping


I have noticed that South Korean teaching jobs are extremely easy to come by. I have been offered 7 different positions so far. Im not sure what they're going to look like once I get there but, hey, fuck it. I've heard so many horror stories, well some at least, like people getting fired in the 11th month, therefore losing all coming pay and benefits. Schools shutting down and leaving teachers stuck with no job. Ive heard of crappy apartments, hostile racist fanatical locals, theives... It sounds pretty cool. But i'm sure those are only stories of a vocal minority. I've been in contact with alums from the U and I've heard nothing but great things about teaching over there. Im planning on it being the time of a life time.
