Today's practise The day before yesterday, I had the job interview as I was looking for a place that would give me a couple of hours on Saturday. I liked the location as it only takes about 2 hours to get there comparing to that of I am currently working.. So I went there with all my pleasure to have the job interview. Finally the boss called me to come into the room to have the interview and started asking question and I lost my word. He asked me if I got married or not. I said.. well? I don't think I have to.. I haven't got married yet. He constantly asked questions regarding to marraige which were so annyoing. I was baffled that he kept asking me though I frawned a little as I felt unpleasant. As a woman, none of them would want to be asked if they married or not because it is a very sensitive issue. I told my friend that just happened and she got so shocked how old the midsets of koreans are. Not only was I baffled, but also mad. Everything is okay when it comes to the location and working hours which is good to get extra money, I don't really want to work for that kind of person as a staff as my job is supposed to teach not butter him up. This kind of obnoxious perceptions have been rooted in the history got me to thinking Korea is far more to go. Recently the hot potato has came up through me too movement as the famous social figure who was suppsed to be presedential contender was accused of raping a lady using his power and reputation.. what really makes me angry is there are still some people when there is a sexual harrasement, its woman's fault that they were something provocative wearings and their behaviour is provocative. ah...... this got me so furious !!

That's pretty frustrating. Here in the U.S. it is illegal for an employer to ask about the marriage status of a potential hire.

Today's Practise      [In titles capitalize the first, last, and all important words.]

The day before yesterday, I had a job interview as I was looking for a place that would give me a couple of hours on Saturday. I liked the location as it only takes about 2 hours to get there compared to where I am currently working. 
So I went there with all my pleasure to have the job interview. Finally the boss called me to come into the room to have the interview and started asking questions and I lost my words. He asked me if I got married or not. I said.. well? I don't think I have to.. I haven't got married yet. He constantly asked questions regarding marriage which were so annoying. I was baffled that he kept asking me, and I frowned a little as I felt unpleasant. As for women, none of them would want to be asked if they are married or not because it is a very sensitive issue. I told my friend what just happened and she got so shocked how old the mindsets of Koreans are. Not only was I baffled, but also mad. Everything is okay when it comes to the location and working hours which is good to get extra money, but I don't really want to work for that kind of person as staff, as my job is supposed to teach, not butter him up. These kinds of obnoxious perceptions have been rooted in history and got me to thinking Korea has far more to go. Recently the hot potato has came up through the "Me too" movement as the famous social figure who was suppsed to be a presidential contender was accused of raping a lady using his power and reputation. What really makes me angry is there are still some people that when there is a sexual harassment say its the woman's fault that they were wearing something provocative and their behaviour is provocative. Ah...... this got me so furious!!
