It actually worked out that my last day last week was Wednesday, so I get more like 10 days off!<BR/><BR/>Steph, people here are ultra politically minded and do not like large corporations, especially American ones. And even though all of Starbucks coffee is fairly traded, we only have 2 that are certified Fair Trade, so people don't really consider us to be a fair trade organisation, which is hugely important. Also, because of the lower cost of tuition fees (for nationals, of course), people tend to be pretty educated. So people tend to turn up their noses and say things like, "well, you have to work wherever you can get a job, right?" :(Josh and Deliverancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15588563393749625588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11163071.post-1170686772189993092007-02-05T14:46:00.000+00:002007-02-05T14:46:00.000+00:00Your parents are visiting?!?!
