How shit is my job?

**colourful-era** · 30-10-2005, 09:26 PM

30K a month.

120 teaching hours a month (full one hour teaching)
40 hrs per month - other duties (basically doing F all )

Costs : 4000B per month travelling to work and back.

oh yeah I also spend about 18 hrs a wk getting to work and back .

Now is this fairly standard for a newbie (with 1 yrs experience + Tefl cert. - but no degree) ?

Can't be arsed to put this on the other site (well I'm banned for a start) and I guess you've heard it all before but , well - what d'ya rekon?

I need the money and I guess most jobs are similarly shite anyway?

Starting to get jacked off with it though.

Is the getting jerked off bit seen as an unpaid benefit?

Oh sorry, I misread that bit. ooops.

Now we are talking dog. What are the set up costs?

**dirtydog** · 30-10-2005, 09:37 PM

to set up your own gogo? just under a million baht plus you need some running money.

**Captain Sensible** · 30-10-2005, 09:42 PM

hmmmm. I cant see any problem so far. Colourful, are you sexy? We may have an opening that could change your way of thinking mate. :razz:

If you're not an idiot it's pretty easy to do better than that chap! But generally you'll actually need to go out and look for a job and that, they most likely won't come to you.

**Hualampong** · 24-02-2006, 10:36 PM

The jobs they are out there for the money if it's what you're after.. Friday night drunk could get a job this month. Had a guy practically begging for a white man the other evening and he had a contract with him. Bar on Sukt.

I never talk to my neighbours I'd rather not

This is the standard T&T graduation ceremony speech

Sorry, but it's shit mate.

Assuming you can get (or have got) a fake degree you should be able to get about 35k+ baht for 80 periods (of 50 minutes) a month in a school.

**DJ Pat** · 24-02-2006, 11:45 PM

I thought my job was shit!!!

Your commute seems long: 18 hours per week.

It doesn't matter how much you teach TEFL, in Thailand.

Treat it like a joke.

The older you get, the more of a joke it becomes.

Make sure you have an alternate plan.

well said PC - Marmite's obviously been in drunken oblivion for 4 months and thinks he's found a reason to tell me to fuck off back to ajarn.com.

well bollocks to you too..!

I posted this in October - ie: 4 months ago.

someone (Hualampong) dragged this post up from the grave - give him grief not me you old cocksucker!

**danbo** · 25-02-2006, 03:48 AM

Depends if you enjoy what you're doing. Do you wake in the morning and spring out of bed singing 'Oh what a beautiful morning.', or do you cry yourself dry as you drag your sorry soul to the bus-stop? A major proportion of your alloted time on this lump of rock is being spent at work - either enjoy it or suffer it with fortitude in order to really enjoy the time that you're not there.

My job is a bit boring also. I have been trying to find a new job for awhile and I also got a few but they didn't agree with my salary, they said it's too high for them then fek off, I'll stay here another year.

**MeMock** · 25-02-2006, 09:34 AM

**Marmite the Dog** · 25-02-2006, 09:38 AM

I've given up trying to turn her into a fekkin' lady.

**Goddess of Whatever** · 25-02-2006, 09:57 AM

I've been trying to be a lady.

I'll be a real lady one day.
