Canceled classes, missed the bus, and washer repair drama

Most of my classes were canceled today~! Thank goodness my back is still killing me. Much better than yesterday but still painful.

The washer…first my co-teacher told me the wrong time for the bus, so know what that means? There was no need to even tell him, so I called a taxi. I waited almost 25 minutes for one but did get home on time. Barely. That means I had to spend more money that I shouldn’t have needed to spend thanks to my co-teacher giving me the wrong time. Granted he got the info from someone in the office, which means they can’t read bus schedules to save a life.

Anywho, the repair guy came, and guess what?

The washer is still not fixed. Even better, guess how much it would cost.

Guess~

70만원=700,000 won=$600 (man that used to be almost $700, exchange rates suck)

Um, nope. I can BUY a new machine for that and that’s not happening. I’m not taking that machine with me, no ma’am. I can finish booking my flight in the states home for that price, buy some flights to hop countries in Southeast Asia or get the luxury bag I have wanted for almost 3 years. But that much in a machine that’s trying to burn my clothes and my patience? No way. And~~~ I haven’t even been here 3 full months only for this to happen. Nope~ Homie called the office lady and told her, she gasped so loud over the phone. She’s going to talk to the homeowner. Like none of this makes sense. The homeowner wanted me to pay for the repair and then pay me back. With that amount? I don’t have that much money left over after I send money home, the security deposit is taken out, and pay bills. Not including buying food to survive.

Must be insane.

After this contract is up, I’m leaving. I’m so done. I’m not sure if I even feel like looking for another job in Korea, go for one in China or another country, or just go back to the states. Right now after all this, it’s a toss-up, I just know that I’m not going to stay at this school.

There’s no common sense, no real communication. I question everything about them now, because how don’t you know information that you are supposed to know, yet expect me to know it? Really?

Bleh~
