I just received an email back from the interview I had in late June with Berlitz. I will have another follow up interview and if it goes well training starts between 6th Sep until 16th September. I am a bit lost now as I`m still waiting on news from my other interview. There are pros and cons between both jobs. The Esaka one is better paid (especially overtime) nicer hours and staff, comes with an apartment included and is in a nice busy part of the town. On the other hand, Reiko is very close to her family and living over an hour away on the other side of the city would be hard for her and the apartment may be crap, small and or near to a railway line or busy motorway and it seems I would be teaching a lot of children and I don`t know if I could do that. The Berlitz job is worse paid, but if I complete training, I can go to China,Brazil or Croatia or anywhere really and work at Berlitz there, we can stay here in Izumi City and there is a better career path than KGC.

It has annoyed me this email from Berlitz. I thought I had messed up the interview by understanding everything that the interviewer said and so not having any questions whilst the other bloke reeled off question after question on litle things which I didn`t really care about. I learnt from this in the recent interview, producing a folded A4 piece of paper with many questions to pose. You live, you learn, you become stronger.

It came at the wrong time this email. I am waiting for an answer from this nice school recommended to me by a bloke I played frisbee with, the interview went alright and now this email comes. I may welcome this new lifeline next week if I don`t get the Esaka job but at the moment it has complicated my life. I have sent off a reply saying please provide me with all the details and now it`s just a case of waiting.
