No. He teaches English at a college. They don’t even consider him real staff.

Mord, I’ve met hundreds of you. Just stop with self aggrandizement

I don't think he was self-aggrandizing. I think he was taking the piss out of himself quite mightily.

Actually, I make almost $100k a year. No fairy tale. Sorry you're so fucking bitter and can't accept that there might be some successful foreigners in Japan who didn't rub elbows with HUB-frequenting Hanako-smashing barstool-occupying assholes like you.

And I make all that doing fuck-all, which is, in my view, the very definition of success.

$7.25 in VA

If you’re only making 5g you’re only working 15 hours a week

And I don’t believe you make minimum wage tbh

Not at some college ESL gig you ****ing don’t.

Time to post them stacks, Mord!

Sometimes it's difficult to see beyond the experience of one's own failures. You came here, failed, and moved back, where you continue to fail, so you cannot comprehend anything beyond that.

:) I wish!

Eight kids (well, seven, cuz one is flown the coop) take all my stacks.

Go to Japan and teach. You’ll find out that lifer gaijin are the most ****ed up losers you ever met.

Alright whatever I make it's still ****, but the admission that a minimum wage employee works harder than a college graduate is generally not something you hear. The self-perception is generally that we're useless and our level of effort is disregarded so that they can feel better about themselves for simply making more.

I mean yeah he's a prick, but I don't think he's a prick for the same reasons that many who consider themselves better than my ilk are. It sounds like he's aware that he's making more money than he ought to comparatively.
