Korean Job Discussion Forums

[Fredbob]

Now that I've the golden F-2 ticket, I'm looking to go back to my career as a mental health counselor, since I'm planning to be in Korea for a while, I'm wondering if anyone can hook me up with a contact person to start that kind of thing.

Yeah, maybe a shot in the dark, but I know there's some military and ex-military lurking around here.

Ka-ching!

Why look to the military? There's a 'gold mine' here for you on 'Dave's'.

Well I'm demonstrably mentally ill, perhaps you could begin with me.

I'm always willing to help.

Your borderline personality disorder.

This statement is only being made partially in jest, I don't think I could help some of the posters here, there's no option here for institutionalization for non military and non-Koreans. So, to mandate hospitalization, which some definitely seem to require, I'd have to deport them and then have them picked up by the cops at the airport of their country of origin. Hmm, then again, maybe I should reconsider

Sometimes I wish I had a vague interest in studying the internet persona thing, maybe it's possible to have a virtual personality disorder, it would explain a lot here.

On a serious note, there are valid professional reasons why I want to start back in the field by working with the military.
