Just wondering how many people will be working on election day next week. My school told us that we have to work because all of the other schools on our street are open on election day.

Hagwons, maybe. Unis, nope!

[Son Deureo!]

I work at an adult hogwon, so no. But we always work only 20 days per month, so we usually get a weekday or two off each month anyway.

I'll just be happy when they all stop shouting with megaphones every night on my street....

it's illegal to work on the 15th since all our contracts should say all national holidays are off. If my school tells me im working im telling them to *beep* off quiting, punching the owner in the head a few times and going back to canada. There's no reason any of us should have to work on that day.

It was declared a national holiday by the government. The guy who has to work becasue the other schools are open on his street? that's the dumbest version of korean logic i've ever heard

Just found out our hagwon will be open. It's an easy day anyway so I'm not overly bitter.

My Univ is off YEAH, my busiest day

Downside is we have to go in Sat and give midterms but that has been on the calender the entire semester. We do though get the next week off which is fine by me

Friends hogwon is closed thurs but he has to work Sat to make it up(he's at a Wonderland)

Day off. I hope its a sunny and warm day.

[just because]

I'm working but I got a day last week off so it was a trade off.

[canukteacher]

I'm off!

Mid-terms on Saturday.......give me a break. In my worst nightmare would that happen.

If they did i'd demand my 38,000 won in over time for the two hours over 30 i work. Also do 5 hours prep and work in three other schools.

Dont work in Naju.
