koreans LOVE snitching. has anyone else noticed this?i got fed up with the whole desk warming thing, too. i remember once getting "told off" for going out to buy a coffee during my 4 hours of sitting doing nothing at a deski used to sneak off all the time if no one was about. if asked, NEVER admit you weren't there. i usually just said 'oh i was probably walking around school when X didn't see me in the office.'
Me - Then like an adult, I'll accept the responsibility of my actions, I'm not a child. What if something happened to my wife? What if something happened to you when you sneaked out? Do the rules only apply to me?
Pet peeve of the day: people who whinge about getting in trouble for ditching the place they're being paid to stay at. I totally agree that it's a total waste of time to be left alone at work with the lights turned out.... but if that's what we're being paid to do...
A little frustrated that the prostitute thread got locked before I had a chance to post a few more rebuttals and responses, but I can totally understand why the mods locked it. Some people just ruin it for everyone. In other news, I forgot my key to the teaching office and have to rely on others to let me in today. Sucks, because this is the first time I've done it while each of the other teachers in the office have done it at least 2-3 times this year (without ever a word said about it), and yet they keep acting like this is a big-time-foreigner-only **** up of mine. I haven't hesitated to point out their hypocrisy any time they've attempted to lecture me about it (basically I've been saying, "Hey, yeah, this is the first time I've forgotten my key, but you've forgotten it 3 times and so-and-so has forgotten it twice that many times... this might be a problem for this school, maybe all teachers should be required to check-in/check-out their keys everyday.") -- not going to be anyone's punching bag, I don't even give a shit about their sensibilities.

I totally agree that it's a total waste of time to be left alone at work with the lights turned out.... but if that's what we're being paid to do...4 sure. Nothing defines 1st world problem like getting paid a decent salary to sit around and do nothing. "I'm going to pay you 150 bucks today+give you a place to sleep+Health Insurance+Pension. All you have to do is show up and do nothing. Heck, you can read or play games or watch movies on the computer. You can probably sneak out 30 minutes early and I still won't care." 4 billion people around the world would shoot someone for a job like that.People here are actually complaining about being paid decent money to recreate. To recreate! Unbelievable. What planet do these people live on? Have they ever worked a job where sometimes you don't get work or money, either because you are paid hourly or commission or based on sales or whatever?

+1You took the car, knowing you were going to try to pull this stunt of disappearing early.You were caught. Own it.

Is that better or worse than a foreign puddle? Just as wet, but more malicious~I thought Korean puddles were the puddles created when someone regardless of nationstate membership takes a puke on the ground in this country from a hard night of drinking the national drink and pigeons come to eat it to get drunk.
I always heard they were called "kimchi flowers" lol
