I have a 30cm vertical crack in the bottom of my bathtub. （ It looks like a linear scratch. ）

Can I repair it myself in this case ？

or do I have to buy a new bathtub ？?

We have a resin bathtub that cracked about 10 years ago and was repaired with epoxy.

However, the epoxy has changed laterally over time, so it looks bad now.

We are planning to repair it with a material that does not discolor by cutting off the discoloration part in due course.

Hiro,

＞ The epoxy has changed laterally over time

What does "lateral change" mean? I looked it up in Kojien, but it was not found.
In any case, it would be a good thing if it lasted for 10 years.

The one I mentioned is only a few dollars, so if the color changes and it becomes noticeable,
you can just repaint it again. If you call a contractor, they will charge you about $80
just for the trip.

Sushi Chef Visa, Green Card

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.

You're supposed to find a job that will sponsor you first.

If you don't have a job lined up, what are you going to consult a lawyer about in the first place ？ Lawyers don't offer life advice or job placement.

Lawyers don't want to waste their time either, and they will refuse to discuss a case without a sponsor at the appointment.

I know some people who came here on student visa, then worked in a sushi restaurant with visa support and got a green card
It took about 5 years, but I'm talking about the last 5 years, not 30 years ago.
That restaurant hires so-called visa slaves, so if you are prepared to work for a low salary until you can get a green card
that's one way. It depends on your desire to get a green card and your ability to work for years at a low salary.

Nikkei Kindergarten

Problem / Need advice

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?

It's really difficult to use "the"! Since our internal communication is by e-mail, I send it thinking that I must be making mistakes that even I don't realize I'm making. No one ever points out my mistakes, but I feel self-conscious thinking that someone who is very particular about grammar might think I'm making a ？ mistake.

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 ！

Even if I pass the written test, I don't have a car or anyone who can rent me a car or give me rides. How will I be able to drive? ？
By the way, I am almost a paper driver in Japan.
Thank you very much for your help.

It's tough when you don't have a TV and you don't have a car.

I think it would be better to find a driving school and practice in the school's car
and go to the test center in that car when you are ready.

It might be quite expensive.

I am about to be evicted from my home.

  • ユキオ

Hello. I am currently living in a boarding house （ 1864 Cordova street ） near Washington Blvd. near Koreatown.
The owner （ landlord ） of this place has recently changed and it is now managed by "ALTMAN APARTMENTS".

Its owner （ 1864 CORDOVA STREET,LLC ） has sent an eviction notis through the court.
I don't understand what's going on, I pay rent every month and I didn't do anything wrong.

The house is predominantly Latino American and it seems that many other residents have been sent similar notices.
So I consulted through a place called StayHousedLA, and a lawyer who works for me as a volunteer told me that such notices are invalid.

Then the owner now gave me a document saying that he would pay me $1500 to agree to evict me.
Apparently, the owner wants to demolish the entire house and rebuild it into a new building and start running it again, and he wants to evict us for that.

The lawyer advised us that we should not agree to the amount offered because it is too cheap.
This lawyer does a good job of nullifying my appearance in court.

But if the owner offers me an even higher amount, I wonder what I should do.
So far, no residents seem to be willing to agree to the amount and move out, but I am afraid that if other residents start moving out, I will have to do the same.

Is this kind of arrogance acceptable ？ Even if I were to agree to move, what amount do you think I should agree to ？
My current rent is very cheap （ less than $450 per month ） and I have no other options If I were to find a place to move to, I don't think it would be that easy to find a place in the Los Angeles area with a cheaper rent than I have now.
I would appreciate your advice on how to handle this situation in the future.

Allowed.　Was the code number of the law written on the document you were given ？ If not, ask what you have to leave with $ 1500 as a reference.　Unless the code name of the law is written.　And, actually, Google it to see if that law exists.　

$ For 450 rent, $ 1,500 payment is reasonable, but you may have missed it, so please refer to the local ordinance, or if not, the state law.　You will get 60 to 180 days to leave, not 30 days notice.

If you have to leave because of the landlord's circumstances, you will have to find a new place to live and will usually be given a reasonable amount of money and time to find an apartment.　

Apartments in Santa Monica and West Hollywood, where rent control is in effect, may be unusually cheap.

I haven't heard of a safe way, so if it's convenient and cheap, EMS cash at the post office. I used to send cash between magazines
If it's expensive but safe, bank wire
I've used Wise and PAYPAL and had no problems.
I think there is only one bank in Japan that accepts checks in dollars. The fee is as high as a bank wire. Just google it and you'll find it right away.
