Quote from: Pecan on July 20, 2016, 02:18:12 amQuote from: Action Jackson on July 19, 2016, 02:40:33 pmWhy does every single person that comes to look at my apartment leave the door open upon entering? It's not like the air conditioning is on or anything, but let me just go ahead and try to cool down that stairwell as you make your way back down. I would also like to thank you for letting the flies and mosquitos that were also outside, in. I was getting mighty lonely with only the dog here to keep me company. I know most people will say well why don't you just close it after they come in, but my medium sized dog seems to freak out about half the people who come by so I try to keep him away from them the whole time they're here (even though all he really wants to do is sniff them).Well, considering how most pet "owners" become acclimated to the unpleasant odors of their pet, I'm sure these visitors are simply trying to survive.A valid point but this doesn't explain why I'm also closing the door after Korean teachers coming in and out of my classroom.

I don't like people. Especially before 9 am.My CT never talks to me. I enjoy this. It's a wonderful working relationship on par with my college room mate whom I never spoke to. This morning she felt the need to break this relationship.I don't care about your hangover or that you're tired. I want to read the news paper before my classes. If you didn't catch it, my 1 word answer was an indication that I don't want to talk. OMFG, okay how was your night?(Insert random answer.)That's great. Back to the paper.
Your coteacher may have done you a favour MataHari. The lack of colour sucks, but if your school, like mine, lacks a lever arm stapler, manual binding with whatever is on hand can be a difficult process. I've come out of it with bloody fingers most times.
NEIS is a complete misnomer for what it is. There is absolutely nothing nice about NEIS. It's draconian nonsense! Who on Earth needs a day-by-day record of what I do during my days off? What possible use does anyone have for this information? On top of the blatant privacy invasion is an absolutely terrible user interface straight out of 1997. Not even good 1997 either, bad 1997. Every time I'm forced to use this "service", I die a little more inside. Thank whatever-deity that my co-teacher lets me just put "personal business" in the reason-for-day-off field. She also let me omit my 4-day trip to Jeju because it would be too complicated to put it in legitimately!
Why must there be references to all things Korean in the textbooks? Future tense with a vacation theme. Where will you go? What will you do?/I will X. I will go to Busan by train. I will go to the Busan Sea festival and eat sushi (hoe)..........I learned a lot about French culture in my French classes. We didn't focus on Toronto shit, we learned about the language we were learning.

Don't the kids get enough crap about their own culture in EVERY OTHER class they have? The English class is the perfect place to introduce stuff that isn't Korean.

Are you using Daekyo? "How do you say 'Hello' in Korean?" ... Don't you already know how to say that? "Do you know about 'hangwa'? It's a traditional korean cookie." ...
