if you've read my previous posts, I'm passionately wanting to go to Japan someday, and it appears that the job that is most popular for foreigners is as an English teacher or an ALT.

Then, I saw news about it on youtube from 2009 just half an hour ago and....well, let's just say it was very depressing.

My question to anyone who is experienced in the ALT field: is the ALT position worth it anymore? I want to believe it is because I love Japan (and I've got a few more years before I actually get my BA still). I'll gladly take the risk, but I want to know if the ALT jobs are better now or does it look like they'll get better in the future?
