GABA = scam.

I often hang out in a coffee shop facing the GABA "studio" in Jiyugaoka (Tokyo), which is close to my house. From what I hear from the teachers in the coffee shop and from what I see going on at the "studio," GABA represents the lowest rung on the ladder in the pit of Eikaiwa. Basically, the teachers look/act like bunch of abused Labrador puppies in their black suits (GABA dress code).

For example, last October one teacher described GABA saying: "... the best you can hope for is 1,600 Yen for a peak lesson..."

...On November 30th 2011, Gaba corporation's stock was removed from the Tokyo Stock Exchange and it became a wholly owned subsidiary of Nichii Gakkan.[20]

GABA = scam

Doesn't that apply to all the English schools? (for both the teachers and students...) I've avoided it above all but the only thing appealing to me about teaching English is the never ending supply of lemurs wanting the gaijin "experience." Fortunately for them, I'm too busy having the schoolgirl experience.

I can add to the bragfest with mah bunker ?

I wanted to put an electric plug in the parking and had to drill a wall ('cosmetic', non load bearing wall) Had to go back twice to the hardware store to buy longer drill bits. Endend up with a ruined 15 cm bit (lost fight against the iron reinforcement) and a barely long enough 20 cm that I had to put as forward as possible...

Measured wall thickness: 25 CM.

Also checked the roof concrete beams while doing pre inspection work for electricity... You see the stuff they build for shinkansen overpass ?
Pretty much the same here...

That's some deep, deep drillin'! Did you pull out in time, or did the bit get stuck in the wall (happened to me before - ain't that about a bitch!).

[Coligny]

Last time I got a concrete bit stuck the hammerdril litterally exploded in my hands... (that's what you get for 3000yens...)

not this time... (Hitachi pro model... expensive...)
