Oh yes, I tell you. She did. She fwacked me good, the nasty little woman. She has been at the center of every problem at the school since I arrived. And she has always hated me ( I make more money than she does). So today, all hell broke loose. The beast was unleashed.

It was the fwack heard round the world. Best part is she knocked a student over to get to me. Nasty *beep*. *beep*.

I, subsequently freaked. Shaking and livid, I fled the school. Only to return, as I had forgot my bag. Blah blah blah, talking with the director.

I got a letter of release. I am wonder woman. I win. She gets fired. I get a better job. Nasty evil devil bitch.

thought i'd share.

While I sympathize with you, I'm left wanting to know the dirty little details. Please spill.

I'm no goliath, but I can garantee I will never be hit at work. I think you would have to have a certain look for people to think they can hit you.

Next time after you get hired throw a few mean looks around.

I was really pissed, so many of my wonder moment just after the fwack are missing. I know I said the F word a few hundred times. She actually came at me once before she actually hit me and I yelled that she should just shut up, that I had class and she should go away (at this point we were in the hall, not in my class).

Then she goes in her room, slams the door and goes on kicking and punching the door. She opens the door and lunges out. So, I decided to say "so, you wanna hit me? is that what you came out here for?" she lunged, and I planted my feet. half her body hit the door jam and the other hald propelled her 2 pound body toward me while her fist closed and struck me.

(this is when the child went down)

I said the F word. I told her she was f-ing crazy. I walked out. The director tried to stop me and I told him to give me an f-ing bloody minute.

One of the schools I worked for tried a home invasion on me. My door was locked and I got the U.S. Embassy to send the cops to the apart-uh. Cops freaked when they saw four goons trying to batter down my door and crawl through the barred windows! The butcher knives did not make the policemen feel any better, eh.

The director told two foreigners who were there that he was there to murder me, steal all of my money, take my plane ticket, and make an example out of me that foreigners should never defy a Korean.

The school is still in operation, and it is operated by a well-known minister/cult figure.

Um, for the record, the Yongsan Cop Shop treated me like the criminal and refused to allow me to leave the station after I submitted my report for more than six hours.

This sounds like BS to me, but it's Korea so you never know.

The bigger question is does reading Dave's make you unduly paranoid of Koreans?

I might have considered calling the po-lice and asking for blood money too. After that unpleasantness I think a peaceful little sojourn on the beach in Thailand c/o "Rocky's" credit card would be most fair Very Happy

This goes either in the Crazy Waegookin Thread or the Crazy Director Thread, but haven't made up my mind yet.

Either wauy, you got some won comin your way. Maybe I should get my boss to hit me too.
