Night Three: Announcement
Our defacto voice of God, a real sweet teacher who had the rough job of middle-woman between the teachers and the Ministry of Health thrust upon her, just came over the P.A. system to announce the following:
- We are going to be quarantined and released in 7 days.
- They are looking into whether teachers will be paid for this time.
- They are attempting to get us books and teaching materials. However board games are a no-go due to multiple people being in close proximity of each other.
- Some DVDs and movies have been brought here (yay!)
- Our cooperation is expected with the Health Workers.
- Our school has our back and our jobs are safe.
Good news for the most part. I think some people were disappointed in the 7 more days part, but it’s always nice to at least have a reference now to *when* we might get out.
That said, this is Korea, and if Korea has taught me anything, it’s that plans are almost certainly subject to change.
