23 Hour Odyssey Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Because of a lot of manipulative BS I won't go into, our boss delayed buying our ticket until 2 weeks to departure.

We now have seperate flights on different days, with a 5:30 hour layover in Tokyo, 2:30 Hour layover in Chicago, in Economy Class. (I'm flying AA)

It took us 14 hours to fly direct Toronto to Incheon, it will take us 23 hours with 2 layovers to return.

This was NOT necessary, we showed her the Travelocity package that would've taken us direct, business class, 14 hours A MONTH AGO, but she didn't go for it because bluntly, she wants to be able to threaten not to give us our tickets if her staffing problem for the next two months doesn't go away.

The tickets arrived today and I was told that I'm not allowed to keep my, the boss will keep it 'safe' until I leave.

5 hours and 30 minutes layover in Tokyo?

Last time I was at the Tokyo, I was amused by all these Japanese men drooling over pictures of naked women in these weekly rags.

It sounds like you would be better off if her "staffing" problems didn't work out. What a jerk. When you get home, I would go job hunting!

Oh don't worry I'm not going to work for her or that franchise ever again.

Next year I should be in Seoul, with much better hours, (unfortunately the same pay 2100000 won), closer.

i'm so sorry about your boss being a *****.

there are plenty of them in korea. something about "subserviance" of the "inferior" to the "superior"... and naturally, the superiors abuse it.

how old is your ***** of a boss? the younger ones tend not to put so much stock in that hogwash.

The airline is AA.

I'm not sure what it is exactly, some American company I think.

Incheon-Narita-O'Hare-Toronto

Is there anything to see/do around Narita for 5 hours?

As I said, you can wander about looking at various Japanese men drooling over weekly mags

The Japanese desserts are good, you could always pick up a couple of boxes. You know, them things that made to look like a piece or fruit, etc.
