Y'all need to *read* your contracts and 就業規則 and not just go off of vibes.
It's your responsibility to know what you are agreeing to and what your employer expects of you.
Many situations can be avoided if you simply read the documents you are presented with.

If you're going to posit yourself as a Japan Understander™ and give (unsolicited) advice about working and living in Japan I think it should be a prerequisite that you have enough Japanese proficiency to navigate working/living here yourself and enough understanding of basic workplace procedures.

今までがそうだったからかわからんけど、日本語であれば現地の人が理解できないから他国について何言ってもいいって傾向が日本語圏SNS(主にネトウヨ)にある。ただ、今は自動翻訳を使ったり、日本語がわかる現地の人がいたりで、そういう投稿が炎上するのが多くなって日本のソフトパワーかなり影響うける気も…
最近は日本もcolonizer mentality(植民者マインド？)だというのが増えてきてて、(SNS上では)日本の印象が悪くなるばかり。
ま、私は昔からナチュラルに他国を見下す日本人の傾向にうんざりしてたから笑って見てるだけやけど笑

I have watched enough Chinese short dramas to know how to form simple sentences and ask simple questions. My Chinese coworker holds mini classes for me whenever I have questions now lol

I will never understand why my husband feels the need to report to me.
He worked half day today so when I made my bento I left his portion out for him but he went shrine stamp hunting after work and got home a little while before I did, so he didn't eat lunch.

If it's one thing I'm gonna do it's find a student to tease relentlessly. Spring '24 and Fall '25 were Finnish students. Spring '25 was French students. This semester is a Hongkonger.

Been at work for half an hour and it's still 10° outside like this should be illegal.
At least I brought a cardigan today.

Sometimes I'm like "I should go outside" and then I remember my (complete lack of a) social life and I watch Chinese short dramas instead.

Coworker recently said that I'm "emotionally/mentally strong" and she wants to learn that from me and I....... don't know how to respond to that lmao
I mean. I guess I am. When you grow up looking the way I do you learn to be strong pretty quickly.

Bossman decided he didn't like the classical music the uni plays over the PA system during the day so he turned it off and has been playing jazz/blues etc on the office Bluetooth speaker lol
I appreciate it but I do end up randomly singing/dancing.

Randomly remembered that one time on jtwt when I was called everything but a child of God for saying that I don't think school uniforms are evil 😭
That was a wild day.

社会人9年目で(社会人になってからの)職場3つ目の私が新卒で入って社会人3年目の人と仕事して、私には向上心というのが全く無いことに気づいた😅
別に出世したくないし、色々研修してスキルアップとかあんま興味ない。参加しろって言われたらするけど。

最近は自炊再開したけど、山形に住んでたときとか、大阪のこの前の職場のときとか、なんでこれが毎日できてたか分からんわ
…と思ってたら、よく考えたらそのときは一人暮らしで毎回ちゃんとしたご飯は食べてなかった。お弁当はちゃんと作ってたけど、朝ご飯はスキップ(今もそう😅)で、夜はすごく適当だった。
でも今は私と夫の分で夜もちゃんと作ってる。あと、通勤が長くなって、自由時間が激減した。それでよく頑張ってるなって思う。

Tourists do not impact local culture lol
The Japanese people choose how much and what parts of their culture gets preserved.

I read somewhere that Japan has 30 million tourists per year and expecting over 40 million this year.
We sometimes get sick of the 300k that we have in New Zealand.
That's an unbelievable number in a small place. No wonder they are worried about their culture.
