It is a Wednesday and it was quite warm, and comfortable. Usually when teachers come to South Korea to teach English, they think it's a walk in the park.
The younger teachers, usually don't get the fact that a job is a job. You have to put in the work to see results. Usually seasoned teachers (ESL) tend to get lazy. They know their game...so...ahh who cares.
Now is not the time for that kind of attitude. They will likely make a fool of themselves here, then go the states. Then they will have a hard time holding on to a job, or keeping one for long due to layoffs.
It is time to really appreciate the fact that you are gainfully employed. What you may lose today might not be here today. So to those teachers who think "I hate teaching here".
Think again. You might miss the free apartment, easy side jobs, easy to get overtime, and many other benefits to this job.
People come to Korea, and they want things to be as similar as back in States, or where ever they are from. Sadly this is not the case. The ones who have been here long term...they are smart. They will be here even in the toughest of times. These new young college grads, are in a very rude awakening. The world is very different from what it was just 2-3 years ago. Very different.
