Good post.
One of the only things I really love about China (besides my gf) IS my job. I like my students and I put a huge amount of effort into teaching them about 'life' beyond the English language. My school management is also OK. If it wasn't for my gf and teaching job I would have been out of here long ago (medical system, poor hygiene, dirty habits, road users and lack of courtesy/care for each other). In Asia I've traveled to Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, Taiwan and Bali. Though I love Bali and Vietnam, I don't know how much I'd LOVE them if I actually worked and lived in these places...as a tourist everything looks wonderful. I'm positive China is not for me and will be leaving in a few months...but I'm happy I came. I've learnt so much being here.
My advise to Kirkpatrick would be to go back to a place that you DO like...plain and simple.
Cheers and good luck. |

| Yea, It's time to leave.. Frankly I doubt I will come back..Better everything elsewhere.. Haven't had a chinese GF.. So can't comment on that one.. Frankly, had a few dates but chinese girls are rather lame.. Like I am going to give you 6 months free English and not even a kiss.. Hell no... They can go play their song and dance on some newbie.. Not this cowboy... I will be off to Laos at the end of next semester.. Oh yea, the boss will get zero notice.. blacklist my ass I don't care anymore... China isnot the ceter of the universe... |

Kirkpatrick,
You have the right attitude. You are actually one of the mentally healthy people on this board. Good luck. |

No he doesn't and no he isn't.
From reading his 'whingeing' posts he seems to me to be a bit of a nightmare to know or work with, and for an English teacher his spelling is pretty awful at times.  |

My exact sentiment though I would have to modify it by adding two letters:
no!
My heartfelt advice to K is to go home and recover, lick his various wounds and grow up. He is not cut for the life away from home or mummy!
No patronising intended - but this is my true feeling! |

Why wait? Go now if you really hate the place. If you work until the end of the semester you are actually doing your boss a favor. If you really want to screw the school over, just walk out now. |

Interesting. Most trolls confine themselves to one thread about one topic. This one is all over the board with this *beep*. |
