I'm rather angry with the whole situation, as it's stripped me of any and all breaks. The school didn't handle things well, and the Canadians handled things worse. I now know that midnight runs aren't myths, and that employers really will force people into a full day of labor right off an airplane. I've also learned that there are some things it's better not to experience first hand.

The Flight of the Canadians
I've read many horror stories about the Korean experience, but only recently did I have any practical experience with them. At the beginning of March, the new school year began bringing Kid's Club four new teachers. Three teachers arrived on a Monday, and the school forced them into a painful day of jet lagged work just after they'd gotten off of the plane. The school was disorganized and chaotic, but it quickly got worse. Two days after arriving, the couple from Canada made a midnight run back to the magical land of maple leaves-without leaving so much as a note.
