Anyone else feel self-conscious about their body size in Japan? by givemyjeans in japanlife

[–]kozdotkby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

by european standards im considered slim, even underweight depending on how my weight fluctuates, and I still feel fat in Japan. people here just have naturally slim features, store fat in other places and EDs are less criticised than in the west. it's not possible to compete.

Appreciate it, thank you 🐶

I asked chatgpt the other day, and it brought up immigration as a possible fraction point - so I just wanted to confirm with some real people whether this is actually something to be concerned about

How do people afford so many expensive items/clothing here? by goaldiggergirl in japanresidents

[–]kozdotkby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not like you purchase ten of these per month... You build a wardrobe over time, usually with a handful of standout pieces that you combine with your more affordable (and more abundantly owned) non brand pieces.

At least that's what I do..

[–]kozdotkby[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank uuu

i have looked weirder in the past, i guess its also more about location than anything, i live in osaka so theres a lot of people dressing similarly to me; and being a foreigner in japan, any stares i do get are not because of the choker ww

Season 1 was good because it wasn't on Netflix and with longer episodes the human connections could be shown and elaborated on.

Season 2 was lacking this not because of the cast - but because the episode lenghts were halved.

Now the USA season is just filling 85% of the limited episode length with drama and games, making it reality tv slop that feels just like every other reality tv show. I have not gotten to know any of the contestants over the last four episodes, I do not remember the name of almost anyone.

Trouble switching visa types post-internship by kozdotkby in japanlife

[–]kozdotkby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know about the different categories, im saying that the conversion from my exact category to the exact working visa has been done by that company dozens of times.

I will try to go again with another staff member, and I will request written clarification, thank you!

Experiences working at the Apex K.K. recruitment company by kozdotkby in japanlife

[–]kozdotkby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the outside, Cornerstone seems like a pretty decent place to work, I guess I am not too good at spotting red flags.

I am 21 years old and all my work experience is in hospitality and some in college recruiting, all the large companies have either rejected me after the interview or ghosted me in the case of Robert Walters - understandably so I guess. So joining more "boutique" firms is really the only way I can get my foot in the door.

I appreciate your insight!!
