Oh no

Uh-oh, it looks like I'm too busy to work here anymore. It's possible that this blog might not exist anymore then, as it's extremely unlikely that someone as humorous and clever will be found to replace me, certainly not an employee who will dare to compare this recruiting agency to Star Wars.
Well then, last words I suppose:

1) We're not bad! I've been here for five months and the company is an honest one. Whether you believe me or not is none of my concern, but I never would have put up with five months in a place that scammed teachers.

2) Recruiters only exist because the Korean visa system is, to be blunt, s*&t. Also, the hagwons here are privately owned, compared to the ones in Japan that are run top-down. Big companies will do their own hiring and send people off to do that; small companies don't know what to do and that's why they use us.

3) Please don't write 'you' as 'u' when applying for a job. "I would like to work at ur company" gets thrown out right away. As does "work at you're company". Ha.

4) Have fun. Stay here for a long time. Form a union. Change the visa system, and heal the often toxic atmosphere here.

Thanks!

Star Wars vs. Easy English Consulting

From http://www.googlebattle.com


Star Wars - 45,000,000
Easy English Consulting - 820


Star Wars is better than Easy English Consulting. Not that I needed Googlebattle to tell me that.
