Damn, we've missed teh deadline. Didn't you notice the rate of pay there?
CNY 7000000 Hourly is like, about half a million quid. I'd happily do two hours work there. Set me up for life it would. |

If you want the job, contact the company T.W.A.T. If that's not a joke, I don't know what is. |

OOOOOOOOOKKKKKKKKK.
I agree with the previous posters. This has to be a joke on Mr. Tom�s part. So the question becomes, Is Mr. Tom a teacher with a bitter experience in his past ( which accounts for perhaps 80 percent of the teachers I!ve met in Asia ) or is he a director blessed by a sense of humour but unblessed by a clue.
Something to ponder on our journey through life. |

Well how about this:
http://www.eslworldwide.com/search/Job_Detail.asp?pz=6674
work for the princely sum of .. 30c a year!
Why you could buy two whole caviar eggs for that!
However, the job description is rather complex, not sure if I could manage that .... |

How come they only want bachelors for the first job? There's far too much discrimination against us spinsters in Asia I say! Ho ho, boom boom.
Sounds like some boozed up bitter teachers. Well they got a laugh from me anyway.
I'm sure if you were willing to live "like a local" you'd have plenty to live on and some to save from 30c per year, or is that just what they always say? |
