It's been awhile

For those of you who don't know, I work at a hagwon. I won't mention th name for certain reasons. The first week you come to Korea, you have training up in Seoul and the training sucks. But you have to do it so that you are employed by the company. Well, the first day of training involves a medical test for your visa. Well, a few weeks ago, someone was doing said medical test and was found with swine flu. She was quarantined and about 40 other people. (My personal opinions on swine flu is that it's just a bunch of mass hysteria). Because it affected our comany so much, they closed down all locations to keep all the hagwons on schedule, etc. Basically, I got 10 days off. So I booked a flight to Tokyo. However, about an hour after that I get a call saying i'm not allowed to use public transportation. This is a completely ridiculous concept. I live 5 hours from Seoul. So, I went anyway and kept it on the downlow. I'll talk more about it later, but overall the experience was amazing. I LOVED Tokyo.

I get back and start working again then Thursday happened. There's this guy named Jeff..he's a Korean guy that recruits foreigners for other hagwons, basically to work second jobs which is illegal. But they caught him. And with that they are cathcing a lot of foreigners as well. One of my friends was even fired and will not have a job at the end of the month. I wound up on a list somehow and they questioned me for ahalf an hour. I was pissed. I am completely innocent and they came to my school and questioned me. My boss was freaking out thinking that she was going to lose a teacher. They kept telling me..you have two options. you can tell the truth or you can lie and get in trouble. I felt like I was three years old being punished or something. They have no evidence on me. I don't even know how they got my name other than I know people. I have never even had a conversation with this Jeff guy. I'm ok, so please don't worry about me. they said they would call if they found any evidence against me. If they do it's superficial evidence and that will be another situation.
