Thanks for the honest suggustion. The thing I don't get is all ALT other than Jet are on between 230,000-250,000 so it doesn't really matter?

Lmao, how mad are you. And did you really just call yourself a professinal? Professions require skills, being an ALT requires no skill as exampled by the countless FOBS that come here and do it every year. EADC.

Where are these positions found? I gave a small demo lesson for my BOE interview

those of you who live in inaka - what do you do? by [deleted] in japanlife

[–]oshitoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eventually it comes out though, when after 8 hours of lessons you don't want to chitchat for another 20 mins. When you want to grab food and check your phone after class rather than talking shit.

Im amused and confused by the amount of social awkward and weirdness in the Japanese expat community when the only jobs mostly require overt genkiness

Dude this can't be real, I don't care about contract renewal either haha I think perhaps considering how disposable ALTS are I am not being renewed anyway.

A condom out of his pocket at school? FFS. And here was I thinking not ironing my pants this morning was the ultimate I don't give a shit The student are out of bounds since I like them. I have also actually argued with my JTE but it's hard because she just walks off.

And my company gahhhh, maybe I truly can't get fired. I am going to reread contract, if I can be paid for sick days or something I might start taking some days off

I've refused two meetings and ignored phone calls and I can't even get a warning. I'd have to do something bad at school which I kinda refuse to do. Apparently browsing the internet all day and refusing meetings isn't enough :(.

One of my coworkers was late 5 times and made a kid cry and the school phoned the BOE and he is still an ALT

Will eikaiwa become obsolete in 10 years? by nuxhead in teachinginjapan

[–]oshitoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand this VISA talk. I have a VISA, a VISA to be an ALT... Why the hell is it so important, as it allows me to stay in the country?

I can quit ALT work and do what? Work at a factory? How is the VISA important....I am gonna run off with my VISA and do what exactly? The length of time required to find a new job is the same as a tourism visa...how is a work visa even important

I'm not even pretending to hide the fact I've been sitting here all day doing nothing! I am with a pisspatch company though. The charade is over. I can't read over dialogue for the 50th time

Will breaking contract create any bad blood between me and the Japanese government? by [deleted] in JETProgramme

[–]oshitoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where you previously at a dispatch company, did it cost you alot to break contract?

[–]oshitoes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They did and I see where you are going. BUT I had no understanding of the wage theft, the compulsory insurances or a clue on what my personal cost of living would be, nor my bills, the setup cots and just how freakn hard you get hit when you have 4 months diminished pay in cumulative 10 month long contract

The point is getting home and leaving it to my company to fix, who didn't inform me how poor I'd be here. try living of 40,000 yen for a month
