Here's an idea: make up your own damn mind.

Excellent advice!

(not bad to seek opinions sometimes though)

I thought rapier had a good reply.

Then you clearly have made up your own mind.

Just do it. 30 X 45min classes a week. Beats 30 hours a week. Just make sure that it is specifically stated in the contract.

And if it all turns to hell don't run like a girl. Be a man and either tough it out or save for the airfare and resign officially.

Good luck.

That's like asking your girlfriend how many men she's slept with!

What's the rule? Numbered answer Xs 5 = closer to true amount?

I gave the recruiter several conditions and each was met save one: I wanted Saturdays off. I found out when I arrived that I had to work 3-5:30, which put a huge kink in the weekend travel plans. I grinned and bore it. Otherwise the job was great and I made the most of it. At the end of the year I said I'd sign on for another year if I wouldn't have to work Saturdays. And I haven't had to work weekends since, entering my third year at the same hagwon. For 2 mill too.
