I'm bored in my current job. Do I have a chance in this opportunity? BTW, how's the pay?

[bradywang]

Hi Rock,

Thanks for asking.

You must be kidding me. The job is not suitable for a senior teacher like you.

Let me explain this position further.

As you can see, the requirement of this position is just two years working experience(even less). That means it is a entry level position, not for senior people.

I think the position is very nice for someone who is preparing studying abroad after one or two years or someone who wants to change job but no idea which one is better.

I believe the job loading is not very heavy. (However, you can not assume this as interviewing with the manager.) Working time should be from 9am to 6pm. Most of time(at least 90%), you dont' need to oever overtime. That measn if you need to self-study, you have enough time.

I think it's not good to ask the compensation before understanding the detail of a job. However, I believe the compensation should be very competitive.

I will go to the gathering in this Saturday. If you or someone you know is interested in this position, please don't hesitate to contact with me asap.

Cheers,

Brady

Yes, I was just kidding. But, you don't have to focus on the word "senior" so much, either... Now I am really sad for not being able to get that job just because I am too old. It's not fair!!!

Come on! Don't be so nervous.

In English, I believe "senior" is a positive vocabulary.

Senior is not equaly to old, but means knowledgeable

OK, now I am happy to hear that. For my personal respect to you, I'd like to address you as Brady the Senior... Hey, don't be mad!!! That one is much better than "Uncle Brady", right?



ps. Compare with me being called "Dad" in this club by some lady, uncle is really not bad, though.
