#18 Are you an idiot ? Mr.
Topic. Sorry, I live in Japan and don't know anyone who speaks English.
You say that my pronunciation is strange, but what exactly is strange about it? I know this is a very rude request, but if you could explain it to me, I would be very grateful.
Thank you very much.

① That the "v" in very was pronounced as "be" in Japanese and the "r" was pronounced as "ri" in Japanese.

② The repetition of "very very" twice briefly. ( A typical Asian trait. )

Japanese ( Asians ) are not good at pronouncing "v" and "r", so that they intentionally said it in Japanese pronunciation as "beriberi" instead of "very".

Many Americans who have seen this kind of racial staging in movies and TV dramas that emphasize Asians found it to be a derogatory expression for Asians, and it caused a firestorm in today's race-conscious America, and Mr. Morris was suspended.

I see. I'll be careful about pronunciation ! !
By the way, that Mr. Morris, do Japanese say "beriberi careful" ? for people living in the US,
but even I, when I need attention, say "Be Careful " or simply
say "CAREFUL" strongly.
Beriberi sounds like something a kindergartener ? would say, and I feel like a fool.

I bought something similar to this at Home Depot and fixed a 20cm black scratch.
It doesn't completely restore it to the way it was before the scratch, but from where I am standing,
I can't even tell where it is. Moreover, it is so dry and crispy that it will not scrape or
peel.

Greetings, I graduated from college this spring and am currently waiting for my OPT visa to arrive.
I was studying to get my driver's license during this gap period, but I noticed the other day that the I20 is listed as necessary to bring with you when you take the written exam.
However, I myself have already graduated from school this spring, and my I20 expired in June.
In this case, how can I take the exam? By the way, my F1 has not expired.
If anyone knows, I would be grateful for your help.

Has anyone obtained a visa or green card as a sushi chef ?
I would like to hear about your experience if you don't mind.
I would appreciate it if you could tell me about the type of visa, when to get it, sponsors you have had to support you, and any experience you had with being cheated out of a promise to give you a visa, or anything else you should be aware of.
We have no experience and are trying to become a sushi chef.
Thank you very much.

Sushi chefs can immediately hire Chinese, Korean, Filipino, Thai, and Vietnamese who graduated from sushi schools over here.
Japanese-owned sushi bars are becoming less and less common in the US every day.

If you want to live in the US, the first priority if you are a man is to find an American girlfriend while you are a student. Women can easily find an American boyfriend even if their visa has expired and they have no income or education.

I don't understand how they can be so harsh in their denial, but maybe they are desperate not to make it so easy since they went through so much trouble to get the GC.

My advice is that you need luck, timing and patience.
First of all, you need a restaurant owner who will sponsor you and of course a lawyer. it takes 7-10 years for some people to get a GC, and even then, they may not be able to sponsor you or the law may change during the process. The fastest way to get a GC is to win a lottery or find an American wife. If you have the money, there are schools and networks for Sushi skills. You can learn how to handle fish and nigiri rolls on YouTube, and then just practice. If you want to get 2 years of nigiri skills, you need to practice 5 days a week x 3 hours x 50 weeks x 2 years = 1500 hours of nigiri practice. There are a lot of people who have been making sushi for years but are not good at it, even if they are from Japan. People who are motivated and have ambition are studying by watching YouTube. I don't know if you have that much guts.

Either way, if you want to be a sushi chef in America, you have to have a certain level of determination or you will regret your life. The hours are long, you are on your feet a lot, and you get frustrated with slow-witted students and mistaken old ladies who have been living in the US for a long time. If you miss the timing to go back to Japan, you will not be able to go back and it will be difficult to live in either place. I think there are a lot of people like that here too.

Please think carefully and decide your career path and do your best.

Nikkei Kindergarten

Problem / Need advice
#1

We are senior moms and dads and look forward to your kind-hearted comments.

My daughter started summer school at Nikkei this summer.
She is 3 years old and this is her first time in kindergarten and she is very naughty, so on the first day she had to leave the classroom.
She looked very stressed about it and the teacher nailed me and told me to be sure to tell her at home. I know it was hard, but it was said in the same way as the first and second days. \I know she is tired and I know she is bothering my daughter 😞
but I am depressed because I wonder if this teacher will be okay and I am worried about sending my daughter there in the future.
I don't think she is a bad teacher, but when I go to pick her up, all she says is negative things again, that she is bothering my daughter, and that she is trying her best to teach her things at home, but it's not going well.
My father speaks English at home, so I usually do my best to teach her Japanese, but she still seems to have more difficulty communicating with me than with other children who speak only one language.

The teacher seems mature and very kind, but she says, "It was like this, so let's work together to get used to it while getting support at home again!" I am worried because it is not a positive feeling like that.
I felt so much annoyance that I couldn't stop crying after returning home. I'm worried about my daughter, who is just a rambunctious little thing, going to kindergarten, and I'm skeptical about leaving it in the hands of the teachers.
I heard that this kindergarten has had many problems, but my friends' children go there, and it didn't seem so bad when we visited, so it's even worse.
I know this sounds like I'm still a newbie, but have any of you had this experience?

Hello. This is my first time posting here.
We are planning to get a Shiba Inu puppy soon, and we are looking for an event or group where we can socialize our dogs
to help them develop social skills during their socialization period.

I have looked around and found a group called "American Shiba Inu Lover's Club" but have not been able to contact them ( They are no longer active ? )
I am hoping to find such a group.

If anyone knows of any, please let me know !
