  • Boss Wants Me to Stay

    The Dragon Lady offered an extra 100 000 Won a month, plus a nicer, closer appartment in a better 'hood.

    That would bring my salary to 2.2 mil a month.

    100 000 Won is about 165 Cnd, so big whoop.

    And she was totally inflexible on the Saturday issue when I KNOW I could work somewhere else at almost the same pay and not have to work Saturdays.

    PLUS:
    -The 'raise' is really as if the overtime scheme from the original contract had actually been followed.
    -The original contract specified a '2-3 room appartment in walking distance'

    Bah, I'm giving up money so I can enjoy the decadent student lifestyle for another year...but my loan payments are $370 a month now... eeeek...

    I absolutely WILL NOT do telemarketing/custome disservice again if I go back to Canada in July.....

      This is after our initial meeting, I'm sure we'll talk again many times before February.
