Thanks, Jinchafa. I appreciate your post. Some of my friends also post here, namely Elephant, Howard Zinn, and SiamSap. We all are sick and tired of Thailand. We're all ready to leave this place, believe me.

However, I personally wish I didn't have to make so many posts telling how things are where I teach.
Many other white faces are here in Thailand with me, and some of those guys could very well contribute to web sites like this. It's too bad so few do, as there are PLENTY of things here that people NEED to know about if they are to make a good decision about where to take TEFL training or get a teaching job.

I wish I could have read such posts as mine about 15 months ago. I would have gone somewhere else to get my certificate and 'job'. I would have never shown my face in Thailand. But nope. The 'information superhighway' was but a mere cowpath with very little usable info on the subject back in March of '04. Many people will use the great info on sites like this, but very few contribute. The moochers really piss me off, to say the least.
