A while ago, I asked
where should I park to pick up an item I purchased in a private sale, and was told
to park there because there is a red line on the sidewalk on the road. I was told to park there.
I didn't go there because I didn't know what the red line meant and I didn't want to get a ticket.

Living in California, there are good things and bad things.

Currently, information is flying around that there is a very good chance that six different handguns from CZ will be removed from the roster. I am told that there are many CZ fans among the Vivinavi community, so this news is very disappointing.
This morning, I also hurried to the nearest gun store to purchase CA P-01. I would like to inform all CZ fans that panic buying, like the shortage of toilet paper, has already started, so if you are thinking of purchasing one, please be prepared as soon as possible.

Server Chip

Problem / Need advice
#1
  • summer
  • mail
  • 2024/10/25 09:13

I am currently a lunch server at a Japanese restaurant. The restaurant is open all night with no lunch break, but servers rotate with dinner servers at 4:30pm.
Since there is one server for both lunch and dinner, each server gets a tip.
However, the customers around 4:30pm are more subtle; it is the lunch server who is in the middle of the meal, and the dinner server who takes the check and lowers the plates.
The dinner server gets a tip for that customer.

Is this a normal part of the server duties ？ I have a few questions about the subtleties of the shift times.
I do not place a check on a customer while they are eating before I come up, as it is against the rules.

Please let me know if there are any differences in calculation between Japanese and American restaurants.
Thank you very much.

It's not a restaurant that started yesterday, and the rules have been established for a long time. It's not orderly for newcomers to complain about it
Then, we should discuss it and say that currently each person is supposed to get one, but from now on we will collect them once and distribute them equally, wouldn't that be digging a grave ？?

That is correct. It can be disruptive for a new employee to challenge an existing rule. If the current rules are considered fair, it may be wise to follow them.

If you feel there is room for improvement, it may be beneficial to have a quiet discussion with your manager or to exchange ideas with other colleagues.

Thank you all for your answers. The tip is of course split with the kitchen staff at the time. It is not the sole responsibility of the server.
However, since only servers rotate between lunch and dinner shifts, the kitchen staff is not affected. I am a little uncomfortable with the service I give being passed on to other servers as I believe the service I give is included in the customer's tip, but I will try to come to terms with it somewhere.
Thank you ！

The explanation apparently lacks consistency. It is understandable that there is some confusion as to whether each server receives tips directly or whether the restaurant collects them once for distribution with the kitchen staff. Perhaps it would be best to reconfirm this frankly with the staff.

Mobil Home's rent of approximately $ 600 per month may include additional costs other than utilities. For example, you may have to pay for Internet access and furniture rental. It is a good idea to check with the official website of Mobil Home or the owner for specific additional costs.

You may want to check Mobil Home reviews about living comfort. While many reviews praise the comfortable living environment and convenient amenities, individual experiences may vary. Searching reviews online or taking a tour locally is a great way to get a feel for the property.

Conversion of checks upon return to Japan

This is about refunds for electricity, apartment security deposits, etc. due to a move.

I am requesting a US based agent to receive checks and other mailings upon my return to Japan.
For checks under 5,000 $ I was sent a PDF of the check and was able to redeem it on the US bank app, but if it exceeds the limit, I cannot redeem it on the app.

Does anyone know how to redeem these cases ？?

For checks over $5,000, you can still cash them at a bank, but there might be a hold on the funds for a few days1
. Here are some options:Visit the Issuing Bank: Go to the bank that issued the check (the bank of the person who wrote the check). This can sometimes expedite the process1
.

Your Bank: If you have an account, you can deposit the check there, but be aware there might be a hold on the funds1
.

Check Cashing Services: Places like ACE Cash Express, Check Into Cash, or Money Mart can cash large checks, but they may charge a fee1
.

Retail Stores: Some large retailers like Walmart offer check cashing services1
.

It's a good idea to call ahead and confirm their policies and fees. Do you have a preference for any of these options?

A local community center or senior center might be a good start. They may have volunteers and staff who speak Japanese. Searching the Internet is also a good way to find out more. A search for "Torrance Japanese social worker" should turn up several resources. You might also look for programs and support groups especially for seniors.

What you need to know about green card renewal

Any advice would be appreciated.

★ In order to renew my permanent residence, I need

① current green card
② Japanese passport
③ drivers license
④ finger print
⑤ Address and mobile number

Is this enough? ？
Do I also need to provide proof of taxation, bank statements, proof of payment of electricity bills, etc. ？
I would appreciate advice from someone with experience on what documents I need to prepare.

★ Also, can I leave the country once I receive a letter that my application has been accepted?
Or can I leave the country until the card itself arrives?
I am worried about my elderly mother because I don't know what will happen to her anytime soon.

If anyone knows, I would appreciate your advice.

住所もアメリカにあり、子供たちもそこに住んでいます。親の具合が悪く、私だけが現在日本にいます。永住権はまだ切れていません。パスポートのコピーも申請時には提出しなくて良いようなので、これだと日本からオンラインで申請しても、もしかしたらカードが1ヵ月くらいで届くのでしょうか？？？それともそれは無理な考えでしょうか。

You should be able to apply from Japan.
After applying, you will receive a form I-797C at home as proof of acceptance, and even if you don't receive your green card at worst, as others have said, you can enter the country with that form.

I hope Biometrics will be exempted. Take care of your parents.
