Some jobs pay by the day and others pay by the hour. A days pay may range from $55-$100 or you may be paid an hourly wage perhaps ranging from $5-$7.

The 15,000 per day, even if you assume a long 16 hour day, would be about $156, or $9.75 per hour at current exchange rates. If the day's shorter, obviously the hourly wage is even higher. That's more than convenience stores pay to work the register, I think. And you don't have to shout "irrashaimase". The 2-day rate of 25,000 would come out to $16.27/hour. Tell me where else you can get paid that rate for a foreigner with no experience required and no interview.
Hell, I would sign up if my current employer ($6/hour) would let me have the time off! Irrashaimase!

When you consider that you can spend that much in decent restaurant on one meal. 4 hours or 5 hours teaching English is more profitable than 12 hours in a studio and paying your own transportation.
