She was an art gallery curator of something of the sort. She was found out due to her horrible English skills so I heard and turned in my a monk no doubt. <br /><br />Apparently she said she went to an ivy league school (Yale I think it was I could be mistaken). <br /><br />Yes, like you said it's not just whitey who lies. In my history here I have come across many a Korean who have padded the resume to a point of being a multiple personality disorder case. The worst thing is they have sold themselves these goods so often they actually believe they are true.<br /><br />I'm at the point where I simply don't believe anything they say in regards to education unless they show me evidence. I hate to be so distrusting but usually things aren't what they appear here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188923502160270744.post-66882329909803710492010-02-13T04:32:59.802-05:002010-02-13T04:32:59.802-05:00Thanks for the info Anon!

I think it also helps illustrate that the stricter rules for regulating E2 teachers should happen across the board since people tend to be universally corrupt--it's not just us waegookin who lie.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14578743779311742562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188923502160270744.post-4695926313420339182010-02-13T03:00:09.403-05:002010-02-13T03:00:09.403-05:00Sohn would have an F4(Korean heritage) visa and th...Sohn would have an F4(Korean heritage) visa and therefore not be required to show anything to immigration to obtain gainful employment. The visa itself is like a green card(excluding F1). <br /><br />Verification or confirmation of transcripts/degrees etc. would be the responsibility of the indidual to provide them as the schools have no way of verifying them. You simply can't call up Columbia and ask 'did he graduate from there?'. They won't tell you as the freedom of information act protects individuals from witch hunts. <br /><br />The in-house papers he provided where probably decent enough forgeries and Koreans usually take the easiest road possible. They probably didn't ask for sealed transcripts as it's only an immigration requirement for a visa and not in-house as I stated above.<br /><br />Also Alex Koreans are pretty clueless when it comes to schools other than in silly dramas on TV. Harvard and Yale and Oxford, sure they know but Columbia would have them looking on a map of South America.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188923502160270744.post-89181753859129074612010-02-12T04:49:59.743-05:002010-02-12T04:49:59.743-05:00Our president has 5 wives and 20 children... and a...Our president has 5 wives and 20 children... and a couple of illegitimate kids.<br /> Why can't I have more than 1. hahaSilent Bobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188923502160270744.post-37886394444658511822010-02-12T02:09:42.514-05:002010-02-12T02:09:42.514-05:00Agreed!Agreed!Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14578743779311742562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188923502160270744.post-8891076973060316392010-02-12T01:57:27.959-05:002010-02-12T01:57:27.959-05:00You can get pretty much any falsified document in ...You can get pretty much any falsified document in the world on Khaosan Road, and done well.

Also, got some medical advice from a friend who said to wrap it for a day to keep it immobilized and take some anti-inflammatory. If that doesn't help by Monday I'll see the doc. But really, it seems like a muscle/tendon issue and there is pretty much jack shit you can do for those...<br /><br />@ SILENT BOB: Pshah! Obviously your job is to try to keep me from tripping over anything new.
