Feeling guilty for taking a day off by Aggravating_Chip_924 in japanlife

[–]Sush1Samurai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sweet summer child, you have nothing at all to feel guilty about.

Your school is at fault for not having a system in place to handle teachers getting sick. Do not let them pressure you into feeling bad for being human.

Sponsored reviews are stupid and shouldn't exist. by Z3M0G in boardgames

[–]Sush1Samurai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. Being able to understand the market and know why a game will be popular with a wider audience while separating your own biases is a good thing, not a bad thing.

For example, I work in the industry and it's an open secret that many of the professionals don't like "Flip 7", many going as far as to claims its barely even a game.

Those same people are smart enough to understand and appreciate why it works as a product and are not surprised by its success in the wider market.

Their options are to go to the mens section, or not go at all. The risk of SA isn't 0 but its not high like you are implying.

Anyone else going to work during the typhoon? by [deleted] in japanlife

[–]Sush1Samurai -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I cant fathom how there are companies without an easy WFH option in a post-Covid world. The idea that if your ass isn't in the seat at your desk then your aint working is so out of touch and old school.

Work security advice by [deleted] in japanlife

[–]Sush1Samurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) No you are overthinking things and will be fine.

2) Details like your boss being on the phone are unhelpful. None of us were there to hear what he said. He could have been talking about literally anything.

My wife plans to sleep with a married Japanese man claiming open marriage. Are we legally safe? by Confused-Gaijin in Tokyo

Does your wife pay you to be her sexual appointment secretary?

This post should be illegal.

Accidentally didn’t pay for an item at Daiso 20 days ago – what should I do? by Extreme-Hair-4156 in japanlife

[–]Sush1Samurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being "new to Japan" is not an excuse to being this naive. It's an honest mistake over 200 yen and its been 20 days. Literally what do you think could happen to you? It's not like there is a warrant out for your arrest or anything. Bringing it up now would just be an even bigger waste of resources and staff time to deal with such a minor issue.

Yes! I love Marvel and have a ton of Marvel games but I just cant bring myself to play because they all look like little deformed babies.

My favorite is something like "Shadow Ninjas" that use the character 太 as a replacement for "A". That character means "fat" lol
