So... I'm really starting to get a grip on this job... Which means I can think about it more in terms of how I feel and not just trying to get a handle on things...
And I don't think I like it all that much. This isn't to say I hate it and that it's all awful. It isn't. But the things I don't like are fairly ore slant and beyond my power to control. I have some kids who just have insufferable attitudes or temper problems. My 40-50 minutes a week with them isn't exactly a sphere of influence. Also... I really like all of my coworkers... Which makes it really hard when one of the higher ups in the company comes by once or twice a week. She's... Well she's part I the Japanese business hierarchy and I think she's a bit up on that power... I've been in the back room twice when she's been yelling at my manager. I could understand one time too and it was the most petty, stupid thing. I really don't like her or the effect she has on my Japanese coworkers. The Japanese business system... I really don't care for it. I don't know why I thought I would find it any other way... And it's not even quite as much in my face at amity as it might be elsewhere...
But like I said... It's not all bad. I had my favorite students today. We played a game about drawing faces and they are the funniest kids to play this game with.
