haha, fair enough. to each his own
as long as you don’t tell me Steve Jobs is a god and that you waited in line to buy his book
Why even bother with an Iphone when the Samsung Galaxy II (LTE) is both cheaper and better? Plus android gives you more possibilities
I don’t get the whole Apple hype…
you need the original degree
PSB stands for Public Security Bureau. They decide on visas.
For the connections part: Guanxi
The regulations changed a couple week ago. As follows;
People who already have a Z visa can continue having one (and get a new one) without having a Bacherlors degree
People who want to apply for a (first) Z visa MUST have a bachelors degree.
This is a Chengdu regulation. PSB connections can not change this. I know first hand

You can do a much ‘research’ online as you want, and listen to people’s critism about former employers. if you really want a job, you just apply everywhere and see what kind of vibe you get from the interview
Hampsons isn’t bad as long as you accept their conditions. I know teachers that have been working there for over a year now, and that don’t have a bad thing to say. I still wouldn’t work there, but again, personal preference…

Dave is very easy going and lets you host a game for free, as long as you don’t spend 3 hours drinking 1 beer
China’s ESL market in 10 years will be like Japan’s market now: saturated… small schools going out of business, big school making less profit
Factor in the decreasing birth rate of the last 10 years and even China’s public schools will have to compete to ‘fill up’ their classrooms
call me crazy, but China in 10 years isn’t going to be all it’s cracked up to be. Big English schools are already planning for this upcoming saturation of the ESL market in China
I’m up for going to a driving range. I suck at golf, but enjoy it
