Those of us who work corporate gigs, particularly outside of Seoul, may have been experiencing a slight or serious downtrend. Generally I've been working for one recruiter/hagwon/company for different K corporations. They haven't been able to provide me with enough work, so, logically, I started looking for work elsewhere, in addition to the work I do for them, gotta eat right?

Of course, I asked some of my coordinators from said company to write me, which they did, embarrasingly good ones actually.

Of course, my company saw my resume online, with the recommendations. Now they are complaining and the people who gave me the recommendations are in trouble with the management. I've worked with this company for more than a year, busted my axx and made them a ton of money, now they can't feed me and pull this kind of isht!

Really, you've gotta be kidding me! JUST A RANT I GUESS

It's just your karma paying you back for selling your soul to a recruiter/hogwon/corporation! Wink

Ah, the soul, it's actually been decent, I get a lot of control, must produce results and the overwhelming majority of my students are highly motivated to learn. I teach, they learn, I get good reviews, company gets paid, wasn't a bad deal, last year I had more work than I could handle.

and, no, F2
