I would have to agree with you! ... cheese, and money, and BACON!
... three of the greatest things Life has to offer!

(but STILL, no).

GA knows.

Cheese, money, bacon. Hands down, 3 of the Top 5 Best Things Ever.

I'd add The Beach Boys and baseball to that list.

1. The Beach Boys
2. Cheese
3. Baseball
4. Bacon
5. Money

Apologies. I realise this is desperately off-topic.

I found that the bestway to ask for a raise was to do a demo. Leave them wanting more, and go in high energy, let the student's like you, enjoy your class, feel like they really learnt, then you have a chance to hit them with a request for more.

For the OP, here's how not to. I am currently recruiting and my school pays 12-15,000. I got a message from a teachers saying. "I am very qualified so I need 18,000". Any idea where his CV ended up? Rhymes with bash.


I think this was a very foolish decision on your part. It displays a woeful and staggering misunderstanding of how business is done in this country. Fortunately, most Chinese are a bit more reasonable on this matter.

Or perhaps....some FT's think qualifications or experience count for shit when they don't at Joe Blows English School. Make the kids happy.....you earn your pay.

Dance monkey dance!!!
