Check out http://outpostnine.com and look at the editorials stories, and the journal in particular.

And I'd like to say that he is telling the truth... I lived and worked there, and things really can get weird.

Been reading this guy's stuff for months now. His tales are funny but the overall experience may not be universal for everyone who visits japan. Just those who are stuck teaching at ghetto schools. Oh Az.  We love you. Supaa Gaijin Kancho Smashuu!

Yeah, I think more in the ghetto.  I taught at a private school, and I never had to put up with -anything- like kancho at least.

But why is this guy whining? I'm sure at least some would actually welcome such a "special" treatment.  :censored2:
