I have a K-gal I've been with over a year and we were talking about her working. She doesn't need the money, she's cool, but she's a busy body and wants to help. The woman has 3 degrees. A master's and 2 bachelors. Here's the deal: she told me no one will hire her because she is over 50. It's one of the ways this wonderful country keeps their woman dependant on the superior gender. (We all know who that is). My current co-teacher is #3 behind the principal and the v.p. She can't speak english worth a crap and probably would rather monitor all of the teachers anyway. My gal speaks very good english, loves kids, (has 3 grown sons) and has a wonderful personality. Does anyone know how I might approach the head cheese without pissing them off? If my school really wants the kids to learn english this would be a win-win. How can I get them to think it's their idea? We all know it must be. Thanks in advance.
Very Happy

Korean Girl. Kgf is Korean girlfriend.

I'm an Am-gal. I guess Brits would be B-gals, Canadians, C-gals, (not to be confused with cup sizes), Aussies would be Aussie gal... etc. etc. etc. Wink

Does this woman even have credentials to be a teacher? Speaking English is one thing, teaching it is usually something else. And given the OP refuses to acknowledge the capital "E" in his own language, I wonder about his as well..... Wink

And what is the deal with women insisting on being known as "gals" or "Girls?" Afraid the march of time only flows in one direction? Even with today's technology, 50 is still on the Back 9 of life. Embrace it, don't deny it...

1 I don't believe the OP has been in Korea for over a year
2. I don't blieve the OP is old enough to be dating a woman over 50
3. I believe the OP is a troll
