My old blog was too crusty

My old blog didn't allow for paragraph creation so I decided it was time to upgrade.

Today I'm mostly annoyed by my boss. Not that he's done anything really bad to me, but he's really just a pain in a paternalistic, authoritarian, insensitive, myopic, middle aged Korean businessman kind of way.

* He told one of our teachers that she should look for a good husband because she wasn't the working type!
* He also told her she shouldn't have got divorced, and that she was a silly woman. Despite the fact that he is divorced and has two kids himself!! Just lucky he has his mother to look after them. What a prick.
* He demanded that all the Korean teachers cook food for the BBQ last Saturday, telling them on Friday evening. Then, when they decided there was no time between getting off at 9:00 in the evening, and Saturday morning, so they would pitch in some of THEIR OWN MONEY and buy some stuff at Dong-A, he got really pissed and let them have it. Despite the fact that he lives with his mother and gets her to do that stuff for him.
* He is utterly and completely disorganized and never tells anybody about anything until the last minute, and then gets pO'd about it not working out. Or he is simply negligent, shows up late for pay day, and then calls people back to work, late in the evening because its not convenient for him to pay us the next day.
* He puts on this "kindly uncle" act with the kids which is really lame and phony. He wouldn't know how to play with a kid if he spent a year in a daycare.
* He constantly gives us inane and contradictory directions based on his careful research of looking into the classes for twenty random seconds every couple of days. "I want the kids to have more fun, and be engaged by the work. Oh, by the way I won't allow any more games, and you have to assign more homework." The man's obviously never taught for two seconds in his life. Oh, and he won't actually tell you himself, because then you might be able to defend yourself, but rather get his minions to come and tell you.
* One time he kicked a kid out of school, and was acting all tough, but then refused to do the hard part and actually phone the parents to tell them. The Korean teacher got that fun assignment.


Now he does have redeeming virtues, but they really should barely count as virtues except that so many other owners are ever bigger jackasses.

* He does actually pay us.
* He takes us out to dinner periodically.
* He usually doesn't insult us to our faces.

So all in all, despite the fact that I'm being culturally insensitive, I think I can safely say he is a capital porker.
