great place to live japan; shit place to work

Look Jonny 16,000 posts because I have no life Danger, I got your negative reputations before on that other thread today. I didnt realise that it was some turf war thread with another forum, I cannot be expected to know who is who. So let's let bygones be bygones and treat this thread as the serious one that it is.

Cheers.

I worked in Japan for more than 5 years and thought it was a great place to live and work.

OP - not knowing your experience and qualifications makes it impossible to tell whether you have a chance. I don't know anything about that particular school but if you have any more general questions about Japan then I might be able to answer.

That would seem to be pretty damned obvious, OP.

Sorry, next time you ask a yes/no question I'll go with the other option. If YES makes you happy, YES it is.

Seems a fair question.

I would say no, you don't have a chance... unless you're thinking 2012

Seems like some of the forum heavyweights here prefer to jump on newbies.

**DFan** · 11th December 2010 15:20

yeah they do! Just ignore it and hope for decent advice eventually.

I spent 2 years in several different cities in Japan. If you want to get your feet wet, but don't want to commit to long term, check out Westgagte. They hire for short term, intensive programs in and around Tokyo. They'll set you up with a place to live, arrange transportation, and pay you a decent wage. Once you're in the country, there are tons of jobs to be had.
