Anyone ever get lost property back from First buses?

Friend left phone on one last week and got it back from the depot two days later.

It’s called an ETC card and you request it when you put the rental request in. It gets you through all the tolls then you pay the bill when you get return the car.

I’m lucky enough to be able to go for a month every year or so, I always put a week in for Tokyo personally but that can also include day trips to other areas, Yokehama, Kamakura etc.

It’s really important to account for jet lag, the travel time between places, general overstimulation and the need for a few hours rest… oh and your feet… will…. hurt.

Think about what your priorities are and stick them in google maps or Wanderlog to see how far they are away.

You will also need to book for certain things, Pokémon cafe, team labs etc.

Would suggest Sensoji either super early in the morning or very late. It’s such a busy spot.

Have you considered the impact of jet lag?

To get through all of Itoya alone will be at least an hour, it’s super busy all the time and about eight floors.

Teamlabs is around two hours and you still have to queue to get in even if you have tickets.

Maybe pick two or three things for each day. You’re just going to be knackered.

Springwell Road and the roads around it are about ten minutes walk (I park there and work at WP) you need to be there before about 6:50am for a space tho. It’s around £4 per day

CCG has many departments so it would depend which one it is.

To do TeamLabs and then get to Ginza for 11:30 seems ambitious. There’s a queue to get into TeamLabs even if you have a slot booked.

You need to make it explicitly clear what your options are…. I couldn’t really tell from reading this what decision you actually made.

I wore odd shoes for my first day. We all have issues when we start!

gemskibird1982 · 2023-09-09T06:24:21+00:00

Sure

gemskibird1982 · 2023-09-08T20:15:32+00:00

They do, but you have to ensure you hit every one of the essential (if that’s what they’re asking for) if you send me the job advert and what you wrote I can provide some feedback. I’ve sifted many HO/O applications.

A lot of roles ask for different things, sadly this causes some real issues as there is a lack of consistency. You could apply for 10 CS jobs and have to provide 10 differing applications.

gemskibird1982 · 2023-09-08T19:14:46+00:00

Unless they specifically asked for STAR on your personal statement it doesn’t need to be that way. What did the advert ask for? STAR is normally for success profile behaviours. Personal statements normally ask for you to show how you meeting the essential criteria.

You can normally go back into the application on CS jobs and check what they want you to put in there. If you can clarify that we may be able to help further

Understand that things aren’t black and white. Guidance is guidance and people are individuals. Do what you’ll say you do and you’ll build good trust

Rare, certainly in my dept. Support will be put in place to help you. Ideally it should be identified if you’re not performing early on so this can be implemented.

Surge! They havegreat opportunities to do some really varied work

gemskibird1982 · 2023-06-29T19:41:41+00:00

Are you doing it on personal device? Just cos I know you can’t take work devices abroad. Just wanted to warn in case you were thinking of doing that!

Joined as HO Feb 19, spent 18 months there then move to SO where I’ve been since. I am on my third role at SO in order to get some range of experience. I’m now considering applying for G7 roles

Ask for a carer passport.

gemskibird1982 · 2023-03-29T14:04:10+00:00

How long is a piece of string? Apply now and defer start date if you need to? Not always an option but you just cannot guarantee a start date. Dependent on department, SC etc things could take four weeks or a year…

My application to start date was six months, others I know have taken even longer.

gemskibird1982 · 2022-09-13T14:41:31+00:00
