I don't understand people's fascination with vacation. You are here to teach, be a teacher. When you finish your contract you can take as long as a vacation as you want. As for me it's usually five days and by then I'm itching to get back to work. Of course if your kids disrepect you and you hate your director and your work then I can understand the desire for long vacations. But if that is the case, what are those kind of people (who hate teaching/kids) doing here?


envy?

you don't teach kids, you entertain them and slip them a new word or 2... that is what i have found so i want to go back to teaching people who want to learn...

maybe while you are working in your hakwon and i have my vacations, i will be in vietnam or china and get paid twice..

really, i'm now glad that i have this job..

the vacations are a massive bonus... you can't be serious when saying that you would prefer to go to work rather than stay home and be paid the same?

there are many things i want to do.. it looks like i'm gunna get the opportunity.. haha, while you are stuck at work.. Laughing

I don't take breaks between contracts, so those ten days of vacation are all I get. Vacation time is a little more on my mind, too, just because it's been over six months since my last one.


Ahh in that case I can see why.
