Regarding th...Hey, J. I've sent you an email.<br /><br />Regarding this:<br /><br /><b>"As a matter of fact, after I told her my father is gravely ill, she went to the boss and told him I'd be leaving as soon as possible. She came back to me to tell me they'd start looking for a new [foreign] teacher right away, and I didn't understand what the hell SHE was talking about. I don't understand why, but she seems to be screwing with me. I walked out of the office thinking that that I'm working for and with a bunch of heartless pricks."</b><br /><br />While I think many hagwon admin types are indeed heartless pricks, I suspect that they were trying to reassure you that Things Will Continue Smoothly after you're gone, i.e., "Don't worry about needing to leave all of a sudden. We've got you covered." They may have phrased it poorly, and if your bosses have a history of being pricks, then this newest move might seem like more of the same. Still, I'm not sure that was their intent in this particular instance. (But what do I know?)<br /><br /><br />KevinKevin Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01328790917314282058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12891742.post-54021593498258663832010-03-11T15:22:59.480+09:002010-03-11T15:22:59.480+09:00Jenn,
