Simple poll:

Would you work Mon-Saturday...3 p.m.-9 p.m. (teaching hours) for 3,000,000 won (no housing)?

This would be for either gyopos or "native teachers" who have their own housing.

Yes, and they are called 'succkers.' If I were to work 36 hours a week at my old univ. I would have been paid ATLEAST 4.42 million WITH housing.


Bugger that.

No. Take out what you'd have to pay for housing, and then the fact you're working an extra day a week, and it's just an average deal. There are worse situations out there, but there are certainly a hell of a lot better. For 4 mil, yes I would. But like someone else said I'd probably be burnt out after 6 months.

It would have to be a relaxed atmosphere, but it doesn't sound that bad.

No.

Currently considerably more money than that, finishing at 3 on a Friday.

Saturdays? Did my penance at ECC in my first year. Never again, whatever the money.
