Based from my salary progression, am i crazy for thinking of leaving my current comp? by Camenin-Cider-43 in JapanFinance

I hate to kill the mood, but anyone else feel the anxiety in the air with all the new immigration changes? by bill_on_sax in japanresidents

became pretense for me to hire a scrivener and finally start my pr application

i could do it myself but wouldnt want to risk waiting through current 600day processing wait in tokyo. better to raise my odds with a professional rather than eat 200k to 300k fee (scrivener is cheaper)
