 |
|
Just hot off the heels of negoitiating my new contract... and I'll probably be hungover for another day.
I ended up walking up with 2.4/month, no severance unless I attract new students (which I've promised to do), a housing allowance of 300k, 30hrs/week (4-10), and all the usual frills of a plane ticket, etc.
However, because I'm leaving my current contract and turning down a bonus/plane ticket home (3.5+), I've managed to work out a deal where I will be getting 100% of all overtime worked. And, I'll be able to use the school's name to send out advertisements to attract morning work.
Even if I'm lazy and only pick up 5 classes at 3 o'clock, no Saturdays, or Sundays, then I'll be pulling in 3.4/month. With a little elbow grease I should be around 6.
Legal privates. Cool. |

Oh, I almost forgot... they're going to finance a car for me.
It'll get real interesting when my current employer finds out, and tries to make a counter offer. |

seriously....though I think i have the OP beat. My public school just bought a new Equis for me. They also reduced my teaching hours to 1 class a day. After I finish my class at 10am, they are letting me teach privates in the principals office all afternoon. They recently gave me a 55pyung apartment and outfitted the place with brand new furniture. My salary is still at 2.3, but with all the privates I should be able to get about 8 |

No severance unless you attract new students? That's illegal. Legal privates? You mean you're going to get immigration to modify your work visa? |

Oh yeah. Well my hagwon bought me a new Jaguar and pay for the insurance. I teach half an hour a day from 1 to 1:30. All the other classes are OT at 100,000/hr at the immigration office. My base salary is 5 million, so I should be able to make close to 20,000,000/month. |

| I teach from 3pm to 3:10 pm two days a week for a base salary of 3.5 million, but I've also been given an entire row of apartment buildings, which I manage for an additional 15 million a month, plus 15% of all rent payments which brings my salary to about 100 million a month. Also, I've been given a driver and stretch limo so I don't have to take transit. My apartment is 300 pyong, and includes a brothel, sauna, soju factory and liquid chocolate swimming pool. |

seriously though, those of you earning mega bucks & having been provided with cars should surely be out enjoying your wealth instead of boasting about it on a chatforum.
sort it out. |

Why the negative attitude.
Perhaps if more of us posted our decent contracts (my new one - 2.3 mil plus OT, only 22 classes a week..) the majority of people would realise it's possible to negotiate a better deal and ask for more and raise the standards accross the board, rather than accepting 2 mil, too many working hours, little vacation time and all kinds of crappy clauses and penalties... |

| You had it good? I used to wake up a half hour before I went to bed, work 25 hours at the mill, and when I got home my parents would slice me in two with bread knives and dance on my grave singing hallelujah! |

You guys are weak.
I'm getting paid 7,000 Galactic Credits per 30-minute session to tutor Xzlablarkian podlings in the Yorelian System.
And my school financed my ROCKET SHIP, dude. If I resign next year, they'll hook me up with a teleportation device, which should really cut down my commute. |
