Similar thing happened to me last year, it was a combination of a sinus infection after a flu, stress and noisy students, not just in the class but in the hallway. I enforced extremely strict noise rules in class and took ZERO sh*t from students who tried to protest. I strongly advise you do the same, since the ringing can be a sign of permanent hearing loss. Keep hydrated, keep your stress levels down, stop drinking for now and keep your ears warm and it should heal. Best of luck.
It's not healing, man. I have permanent tinnitus. It's a ringing forever.
My KEB/Hana check card is about to expire, so I'm waiting on a new one. Annoyingly, they will only deliver it if I'm there to receive and sign for it myself. That means I obviously can't have it sent to my apartment, since I'm at work most of the day. I gave them my school address, but twice now the delivery guy has come when I was teaching a class, and rather than coming to let me know he's here or sending him to my classroom, the front office has just sent him away each time. He'll try one more time tomorrow, and if I'm not available to sign it when it comes, I'll have to find time to go to the post office later in the week to pick it up myself. Nothing can ever be simple.Related question for non-Americans: How do banks do it in your countries? Back home, whenever my card was set to expire, they'd just send me a new one in the mail. I didn't have to sign for it, it was just in a discreet envelope, and once I received it I had to go online to activate it. Is the US the odd man out in that regard? Is it common for banks to require signature on delivery for new cards elsewhere?
i don't buy the whole "they grew up in a different time" argument. i mean, yeah, they did, but is isn't hard to figure out modern ways of doing things. let people off of the subway first, don't walk into the middle of traffic, wait in line instead of pushing to the front. just an excuse for letting them get away with their shitty behaviour

That's honestly what I was going to do in the first place. When I hadn't received a new card yet, I called them to see whether they were going to send one or I had to go get it in person. They told me they had already tried to send it, but apparently the address information they had was incorrect, so it was returned to sender. That's when they told me they'll send it again, to my work address this time, and I'll need to sign for it. I'm going to go ahead and assume there will be another problem delivering it today, and I'll have to find a way to take some time off of work to go pick it up at the post office. It would almost feel foolhardy to assume something won't go wrong, the way this year has been going, haha.
WTF would you list items which are out of stock!? Urgh, guess I've got no choice but to drag my ass all the way to Seoul to buy my bass.
I thought only Gmarket had this issue, but it seems a problem with every Korean online market/shop I've dealt with.I tried ordering some music equipment off Coupang, paid the cash and was told it would ship within 2 days. 4 days later, no activity. I send a message, no reply. After 8 days, I get told it's out of stock! Pissed that I wasted 8 days for a reply to tell me it's out of stock, I decide to try Buzzbee.co.kr, a dedicated music instrument marketplace. They have a pretty awesome selection and each product has a detailed video review. I endured exactly the same ordeal with them, order, wait, no reply, week later get a message saying it's out of stock.WTF would you list items which are out of stock!?
