When I tried this I got fired…

(This post is kind of all over the place but bear with me…)
Over the next couple of days I plan to post short bits about some interview series that Daily J will feature.
But I am going to jump the gun a little and let you in on one of them now:
English Language Teaching in Japan.
Our next few interviewees will share some of their experiences about English teaching (but that is not the bulk of their interviews). I also was an English teacher while in university and I know that MANY foreigners in Japan have at least dabbled in language teaching at some point in their stay.
I “taught” English for two years and with three different companies, all part time. Actually, it was more like two companies and a random old Japanese lady who organised a “school” at a municipal center in Chiba. It was a dream! I was assigned to teach two fun groups of children and I was being paid 100USD an hour!
It lasted three weeks.
Then she “Donald Trump-ed” me (for the Americans out there
).
Why did I get fired? I did what these guys did…
I play games, I get fired. These guys play games and they get famous. Where’s the justice?! *urayamashii*
Contacting them for an interview,… now.

[...] That’s hilarious! She reminds me of an old boss of mine. [...]
