[quote=mastrer1000][quote=Jimmydoggga 2.0]^I thought you were a knife juggler for a second Also, what on earth do you cut with a 14 cm long knife? Some people deserve no second chances[/quote] I bought it mostly to cut meat. It is a pain in the ass to cut stuff like this with a small knife.

[quote=HiFromBuddha][quote=sirell]Today I was officially offered an English teaching position in South Korea.[/quote] Wooooh! That's rowdy as! I'd love to do that when I grow older (for the country of which the language I speak is from of course).[/quote]

[quote=mastrer1000]I am pretty sure that his followup- question would be something along the lines of "why do you teach in south korea instead of china?"[/quote]

Although I think I remember hearing that Korean English teachers don't actually talk to their students in Korean at all, just English, so it's normal to hire people who don't speak a single word of Korean to teach in English in South Korea.[/quote]

[quote=Jimmydoggga 2.0]I was tired and read South Korea as a North Korea. You know what they say: ALL HAIL OUR ALMIGHTY AND GLORIOUS LEADER[/quote]

It could be that alongside the English, the Chinese background might also prove to be really valuable, which must've given him an advantage during the process. I'm just guessing it's a two way street between Chinese and South Korean education systems, do correct me if I'm wrong.[/quote]
