The general opinion of the ENTIRE INDUSTRY is that it is all shit and everyone who works in it is shit and they're the scum of the earth and it is hell (the Japanese Business teacher I took a class from at NUFS refered to eikawa senseis as Losers exclusivly)....But it suits my needs and capabilities. It is a short term, realistic position with a salary that one can live off of and will give me the opportunity to further devlop my Japanese speaking skills. I've only studied Japanese for two years so working long hours and being shoved around by a boss is a concession I'd be happy to make to get expirence that will help me become a more employable and experienced Japanese/English speaker. For you, it doesn't make as much sense. For me, I think it fits. I mean, two years ago this week I couldn't even write hiragana. *shrug* But, I don't think I have a chance with JET. I can't charm people and the competetion there is FIERCE. So, AEON has become my first pick. At least it isn't NOVA!
