Public School teachers who piss and moan about sitting at their school all day and "deskwarming". This especially bothers me when I'm reading about it after having worked all day. Honestly,do you people have something better you could be doing with your time other than get paid to sit on your asses and play video games.

If I have nothing to do at school I'm not expected to be there and I don't get paid if there are no classes for me. I'm pretty sure that at least some of the PS teachers have friends who work in Hagwons and those teachers would be working so what would the PS teacher be able to do?

Another thing that annoys me is "teachers" in Korea. Those of us who have no formal training in Education yet demand to be taken seriously as educators. Geeze, get a life. You don't have the credentials to be a teacher and contrary to popular belief the ability to speak a language and having a good personality doesn't qualify you.

Maybe not of huge importance in the grand scheme of things, but those little triangle kimbaps in convenience stores drive me mad. I still can't get them out of the wrappers in one piece.

I suspect that "bramble" found this thread only because she googled "pet".
