An english teacher left, so now I have a full schedule. I really don't mind working 30-40 hours a week, because I like to be busy, but I should be getting paid more!
In this aspect I miss the U.S., you can work hard there and have the money to show it.
In Brazil for a lot of jobs you work your ass off and it gets you nowhere.
For instance, the money I will make here in two months is LESS THAN HALF what I would make working this much at home, and at home if I worked full time I could get benefits, vacation-time, etc.
I think I will ask for a small raise for next month since I am working so much more than originally agreed upon......
Anyways, I have signed up at a gym here. It's nice because its cheap and I automatically get a personal trainer assigned to me, which I would have to pay a good deal for in the U.S. So I have been working out harder than ever before, if all goes well I should return with a smokin' hot bod right?
They also did an entire physical evaluation, with height and weight measurements, percent body fat, everything and then told me a weight loss goal and designed a workout plan in order to achieve this goal.
Well they told me to lose 9 kilos (i.e. almost 20 pounds!!!) which is definite bullshit. No way I want to lose 20 pounds-I'd be a skeleton, but I think they just tell you the lowest healthy weight for someone your age, height, and sex. And telling you that you need to lose 20 pounds makes you feel fat and therefore want to continue your membership at the gym.
Brazilian women dress alot different to work out, crazy colorful spandex bodysuits with cutouts!
No need to lose weight silly Dana. Get out of that nazi gym quick! I've decided that life's too short to worry about a few extra kilos cos no one even notices if you're 55 or 60 (or in your case prolly ten kilos less than that). Lifting some weights would do good for me too, though :)
