USA and Japan. I had a company willing to sponser a visa, but they'd never done it before and it would take time. My stay was about up and I didn't have the funds to vacation somewhere else and then come back to maybe get a job and visa. I would move back to Japan in late 2015 after recovering both physically (I spent 6 months+ in a wheelchair and another 6+ months on crutches before finally transitioning to varying levels of cane use for another roughly 6 months) and recovering financially. I've been in Japan since.
That sounds like you did a good job on your leg.
Least you made it there. How you like it? How many hours a week you work? Made any friends with 100% Japanese people?
Just like anywhere, it has good and bad points. Almost all of my friends are japanese as is my wife. I work 40 hours with some overtime here and there, but basically the same as the US (I'm a software engineer). I recently bought a farm and we live in the countryside so I'm trying to get all that sorted as well
Sounds good. I just heard bad things about the work hours and such.
Would love yo go to the country though!
Totally depends upon the company and its management. There is legislation in place to try to prevent things, but some workers will clock out and illegally continue working due to pressure which just perpetuates that shit cycle.
I understood it as the dude was from Japan trying to live in the US.
Sorry, I wasn't super clear!
So you’re an American who moved to Japan?
Some people use sorry to mean thank you. I think they were agreeing with you not disagreeing.
Ah, ok. :) Thank you.
yes
