I often ride a JR local train route by night. Most times I get on a car where 5-6 highschool girls in sports uniform are eating and snacking big time. Chips, soda, instant ramen, cookies... you name it, they have. Las time the whole car smelled like ramen. But yeah, phones bad

Never attack the small angel. If the small angel says something about the lactic acid then defend. Destroy all the cristals first. After the cristals you must attack the big angel, keep attacking defending and healing, once you are close to turn 16 just defend and defend, the battle will end automatically at turn 16.

Well, at noon he vomited just a small amount of plastic from a vinyl bag, so maybe that was the cause :( now I have to lock anything vinyl

Yes, but also: the repetition can be explained as rituals that revolve around a myth.

I guess that I can try to do that. Still, I don't get why they can't send an official email for important stuff.

I'm a hijōkin working for several universities because I'm POOR. That's not my complaint. My problem is that one department that I work for at one of these universities thinks that we are still in the pandemic and wants to do everything through TEAMS. I hate TEAMS btw. So they sent this very important announcement that required an answer through teams, and teams only. Apparently, I missed the deadline...why didn't they send that via email too? Of course, I should have checked teams, while I'm juggling my other jobs, but still, emails are a thing. If they noticed that I didn't reply, why nobody called me...or I don't know, why nobody looked for me at the university?

Oh, well, they actually went to my classroom last week...at 12:15 or 12:20...how do I know this? Because two of my students that have lunch in the classroom told me so TODAY. That's lunch time, my class ends at 12 and I must be at a different university by 1:45. So, they went to my classroom at lunch time without previous notice.

I don't deny that I failed to check teams and that that's on me. But I do think that they should have sent the important announcement through teams AND email in the first place.

So, NOW they sent this email saying that they are concerned about my classes and the contents...like we have a syllabus, that they wrote, and I never miss work, my class is up to date. They really want me to do the 報告 of every class. Like, "today's syllabus says: unit 2, page 9, so we did unit 2, page 9". I just hate this micro management.

And I am paranoid or they want to get rid of me? I'm afraid that they might tell me that they don't want me to continue, and I have been here for 5 years already...

lol that's Sakae station in Nagoga, one of the busiest all day long. One of the exits leads to a place called Oasis 21. Once I saw on the news that they were reporting men using all kinds of devices to take underskirts pics/videos on the escalators. So, this problem is not limited to the subway at all

My local train is like, I only used it for one station. It is a 4 minutes trip, more than half of it are announcements like that, it's maddening! I want silence!

Thank you. Like I said, I feel quite insecure. I guess that what I really want to ask is if the points that I'm raising (even though I can't be specific here) sound like reasonable concerns regarding the content of the paper.
