The Labor Lawyer

In Japan, labor lawyers help the client to leave the job. Yes, they help you to quit the job! I understand most of the readers of this blog can't understand why employees need lawyer to quit the job. The workplace bullying happens when you try to quit a job or even after you leave the job.

Here is the translation of X post by the labor law firm. You have to be very cautious when you leave the job. They have your ID, SSN, emergency contacts, bank account, etc. They know too much of your personal information enough to use for unethical purpose.

Hope my article reach to the C-level executives in the US who are struggling to manage office in Japan.

‘I was unashamed’: Yumi Ishikawa on fighting sexism in Japan

It was meant to be just one of her regular, mundane musings about life as a woman in Japan. But Yumi Ishikawa’s life changed with a tweet she posted on January 24 this year: “Someday I want to get rid of the practice of women having to wear heels and pumps at work.”

The 32-year-old actor was working as an usher in a funeral parlour at the time, a job that involved eight-hour shifts in heels measuring 5cm-7cm. Her comment went viral; it has been retweeted 29,000 times, helping her become the face of the #KuToo movement — a play on the Japanese words for shoes (kutsu), pain (kutsuu) and #MeToo.

Encouraged by the response, Ishikawa, who is also a freelance writer, launched a petition for a ban on high-heel stipulations by employers in Japan. When she submitted her petition to the health ministry in June, it had been signed by nearly 19,000 people and has now collected more than 31,500 signatures.

To the people who want to learn a language because of their favorite media but feel like it's a stupid reason, just go for it! Learning a language is a fun and useful skill that can come in handy when you least expect it, especially if you live in a diverse area.

Not to mention it can help you understand the media you're consuming on a deeper level. Interacting with the fanbase from that culture can help contextualize choices made in your favorite anime, video game, or kpop song.

Why did this japanese game portray europe like this? What problems in korea is this kpop song about? What is this festival in my favorite anime about?

What are the translations missing? What has been localized and why?

It's so incredibly rewarding to be able to understand different perspectives from different cultures. It's amazing to be able to communicate with people different from you. Learn whatever language your little heart desires. Go forth.

dear internet stop throwing pictures of beautifully toasted bagels slathered in cream cheese at me i don't have a toaster i don't have room in my teeny kitchenette for a toaster a toaster is a luxury here in japan as are bagels as is cream cheese

bagel places here that ask me "do you want that heated up" make me want to cry tears of joy even though all they mean is they're gonna stick the bagel in the microwave for ten seconds so it's slightly warm-ish but not enough to crisp up or melt the cream cheese a little

No One Going to Take Responsibility

After my previous company(US-based) told me they will sue me, I was preparing a lawsuit with my lawyer. However, there was no lawsuits coming from the company. My lawyer asked the company what’s up? Then, the lawyer found out they are just bullshitting…this went into the police matter. We reported to police and admitted as intimidation. Then, the company keeps ignoring the contact from the police. The company doesn't have country manager, so no one can take responsibility for police contacts…are they stupid?
