more than I thought

The original advert for my upcoming CUD job had stipulated a salary of 29.4 million won. My contract arrived recently, and it said I'd be paid a flat 30 million won, which is a welcome surprise (even though, over twelve months, the extra W600,000 amounts to only W50,000 extra per month before taxes). Here's hoping that other welcome surprises will be in store...

Better than getting a surprise the other way, though, right? Just think--that extra 50,000 a month can be blown on a night of drinking and debauchery.

Yes; I suppose it's better than discovering that I have to sleep, every night, in a burlap bag filled with angry weasels.

Perhaps the exchange rate will be kind to you as well...
