|
I signed a contract a week ago for a school that starts on September 1st. I did not send any documents needed to get my visa. The only information the school has is my address, name, and details you'd find on a resume like education and employment.
I was offered a better position and want to sign this contract.
Could I run into any problems with the first school if I go back on the contract? What would be the best way to tell them? |

and remember, paybacks are a *****. Especially karma-related ones. Sometimes it's just best to go with the flow...  |

Paybacks are destiny here in Korea. If he doesn't take the second job, he'll get screwed anyway. |

If you have no visa and have not applied you are fine. Take what's best for your Korean boss will. |
