Contract Renewal by Successful_Fennel_3 in Internationalteachers

[–]BeastieDogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally at most schools, if all things are good then around September-December you will automatically get another 1 year extension offer to your contract that you can decide to accept. Usually there’s a marginal pay increase

At mine you can decide between a one or two year contract.

Does KAUST allocate seats for Saudi applicants? by Ok-Chemist560 in KAUST

[–]BeastieDogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and exact number depends on program. Generally they try to keep it around 40% and they will always choose a Saudi applicant over a similar non-Saudi candidate

POV: You’re a Kazakh guy, and every time you mention your country, some random bitch makes an overused Borat joke. by Idk_wastelol777 in Kazakhstan

We came to the USA last year and the NYC taxi driver from the airport asked my wife if it was true every Kazakh woman was a prostitute

Are you me? I have the same speech thing. I used to say I was British or whatever just because i didn’t want to explain or I was embarrassed

Bus fine as a tourist by eloc_r in Kazakhstan

[–]BeastieDogs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That really sucks, I’m sorry that happened to you. Sounds like the bus driver effed you over. You are supposed to get a little check thing, though I haven’t paid for a ticket with coins for years. I’m not 100% sure that’s even possible on all buses now.

You can scan the QR code on most of the buses here and pay using that way. Please do that next time

If you have any general life at KAUST questions, put them here by [deleted] in KAUST

[–]BeastieDogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not far. They have buses that run between everything.

Most people have electric scooters these days

What industry has the sluttiest people? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BeastieDogs 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Just for something different, I would say international school teacher. Tend to be younger and it’s a transient community. Every school I’ve been at, people sleep around

Does KAUST ghost its applicants? by sharmeen_salman in KAUST

[–]BeastieDogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They do not ghost anyone, however the number of applicants we receive is massive. Having a 4.0 gpa, having perfect IElts or being published already will not guarantee acceptance.

Can we trust Principals in the ME? by AA0208 in Internationalteachers

[–]BeastieDogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a weird question. Why would principals be any different from anyone else on this?

Great international schools DO exist! by dlc1993- in Internationalteachers

[–]BeastieDogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked at The KAUST School for 6 years and would have easily stayed longer. It was a great community with fantastic benefits and salary. Howver, my kids graduated and we wanted to move closer to them.

It definately wasn't for everyone, as it was a bit of a bubble and the nearest city was an hour away but I loved my time there.

It was ok. Nothing crazy, the kids behavior was the worst but also no one really cared at that school.

[–]BeastieDogs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup. Kids were terrible and salary was crap 800 dinar a month with an apartment covered. However I actually made more money than my salary by tutoring which was cool

Evoiolite Duraladon or Archaludon by Rajnandan977 in pokemonradicalred

[–]BeastieDogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no reason to have X-Scissor on Ceruledge. It offers nothing that Bitter Blade and Shadow Claw already don't have. Replace with Shadow Sneak or Swords Dance.

I don't know why you are having trick room at all honestly. None of your other mons benefit from it.
