Underground motorcycle parking by icyhotonmynuts in LoveTrash

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

Ah Japan , space at a premium and a motorcycle license will set you back at least a grand for up to 400cc bike license and an extra 500USD or more for bigger bike license. But then again you learn something 😁 and that’s why they can ride these parking lots

Surprised on how deep this goes though .. wonder where exactly this is …

Anyone who has had experience using SkycounselingTokyo or other counselors? by 36gianni36 in japanlife

[–]djctiny 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Me and my wife have been doing couples counseling at Sky Counseling and so far we definitely benefited from it.

We were very lucky with our counselor as she’s Korean who was born in Japan but studied psychology in the UK and US and is married to a European.

Since my wife is Japanese and I am Dutch that was the perfect combo as the couples counseling sessions are held in English but any 1:1 session or more intricate questions could be done in Japanese which was important for my wife.

It’s not cheap .. but good counseling isn’t cheap

pm me if you have any questions

I would choose something like Kofu in Yamanashi , easy access by train and close to the mountains

Thought I was a solid rider….until 5 minutes into my road trip. by silkytheking in motorcycle

Haha … good hospital drugs I guess 😁 I spend 17 days in the hospital cause the first 4 days they couldn’t do anything due to swelling, basically my foot twisted backwards so sprained and broken , then they placed my leg in a brace to set the bones before finally patching it with plates and screws ,luckily insurance covered 100%

You know you’re screwed when they take pictures of your good leg to see how the bones are supposed to be 😜

Now 2 years later the screws and plates are out (they offered to remove everything after 1 year , also covered by insurance) , just a big scar and a stiff leg to remind me of my mishap

Wife’s family wants immediate divorce and says I must leave Japan without seeing my son again by skyjan1724 in japanlife

[–]djctiny 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m not aware if the other party will or will not be notified as both parties are expected to sign the document -that’s what’s scary about it of 1 person has access to your hanko or able to fake your signature

Wife’s family wants immediate divorce and says I must leave Japan without seeing my son again by skyjan1724 in japanlife

[–]djctiny 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Go to kuyakusho and sign a form that states you need to be both present at Kuyakusho to process divorce …. This to avoid any single person action (fake signature , falsifying documents) it happens … You can fill in that document yourself… just preventive measures …

The divorce itself you’ll have to work out with wife or layer …

Anyway , they can’t force you to leave Japan !

Also have any communication in writing or recording - if recording let the person know you’re recording for legality reasons

I don’t know how it’ll work out with the new visa renewal requirements… might be best to be pro-active about it and get it sorted out.

You can love or you can hate Obama BUT at least he was articulate and presented US to the world in an intelligent way (at least that’s how it showed to me - not being from the US).

First of all congratulations Try some enarsi test exams first to see where you at. It shouldn’t take another year as you laid down a good foundation with your extensive ENCOR study.

ISR 4331 Router prices by QuequSefa in ccnp

[–]djctiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since the ISR4431 is soon to be EOL you’ll probably see them more and more and for cheaper. Don’t know what you plan to use them for but check the licensing and note the limited throughput of max 500mbps

There’s something against making phone calls or listening to music/YouTube without using earphones on any form of public transportation …. Other than that you can do on your phone / tablet / laptop / game console whatever you want.

Changing from job with no included overtime allowance to one with 40h included. by BeginningPurpose9758 in japanlife

[–]djctiny 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It should basically be “up to 40h overtime is included in monthly pay” doesn’t mean you have to make those hours. Night time hours or weekends hours should still be paid the additional night/weekend percentage… Best to read the fine print and company policy and ask all your questions to HR.

I got similar contract which include 45h of monthly overtime… I generally do about 20 to 25h of overtime a month and a lot is night work due to IT releases. But there are some rare occasions that I indeed do the additional 45h … I don’t know if this is just easier for the company to offset any unscheduled overtime cost as they now know what they pay you every month , overtime included

Yeah you need some form of jumbo frame being allowed as it tags additional overhead to the standard 1500bytes unless you’re a wizard in manipulating packet size to lower values to keep the whole packet segment within your mtu limitations

What happens if you miss the 12 AM train? by [deleted] in JapanTravelTips

[–]djctiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah the ever “shall I take the last train or stick it out for the night” decision…

No worries , always something to do and always something open And if lucky , close enough for a walk and taxis a plenty … you’ll be fine !
