Making a Clean Break from Korea

Everytime things seem like they're getting better, something happens that makes things worse. I received my rent notice today in my mail box (my rent is paid by my boss), and when I opened it, something didn't look right. So I took it to one of the Korean teachers and had her translate it completely. Apparently, my boss hasn't been paying my rent for the last few months. The rent is now due for 3 months of rent.

Up until this time, even though there were pay problems, I at least felt secure enough in the fact that I at least had an apartment to get me through this mess. Turns out, that was just wishful thinking. Even though I kept giving the rent notice to the secretary at work, they never paid the rent. There's a really good chance that should they not pay it this month, I'm going to get thrown out of my apartment. Imagine that. In Korea, without an apartment, and pretty much nowhere to go. I can't take another job because this job owns my visa, so my only option will be to go home.

So, I'm seriously considering doing just that. I can't really afford to do this right now, but I'm starting to think that I can't afford not to do it. Things are getting worse here, and even though I like to think things will work out, I'm starting to believe that may not be the case.

The problem is that I don't know where to go. I need to go some place where I can find work. And I don't know where that is. I'm not 18 years old anymore. I need to find something that can actually pay the bills, and right now, I really don't know what to do. I'm open for advice.

Korea is no longer the solution. It just didn't work out here. I can't really go to some other country unless I find a job there first. That's the big problem all around. I don't have a job I can go to, so I don't know where to go.

But I have to do something. Fast.

Stumble It!
