My Boring Update

| 15 Comments
I actually came back to Tokyo several times during the monk thingies which I will explain in detail later this month or next month as another post to have interviews for a job. My original plan was that I wouldn't work til next Spring because I wanted to have a year off. At the same time, I really thought about what my job would be next. There isn't much I could do except for the nerdy work I'd been doing... Eventually, I will have to get a job if I don't get a sugar daddy or a jackpot winning. Also, I didn't wanna be too rusty. So I thought I was going to work for awhile as a contractor. But the job agency introduced this permanent position in IT department at this company. I didn't want it that bad. But after researching on the company I was applying, I really liked their philosophy. So I thought "Well, working for a year here wouldn't be too bad". Besides, no more crazy hours :-) Technically, it may not be as challenging as previously ergo more boring but I can study on my own in my spare time :-) After the third interview, I got the offer letter. I think I am going to take it. The more I researched on the company, the more I wanted to work. The interesting thingy is this is the very first time that I work for the company that sells things to personal consumers. The field is apparel. How gay can it get? I will see how it goes. When I told my friends I'd work here from autumn, they went "You are not good at folding clothes." Well, I am not going to be one of those guys though. After all, I cannot change my career path is what I realized because 1. I like nerdy work like this. 2. I cannot do anything else. 3. I am not married so that I cannot be a stay-at-home dad. Anyway, yes, so jobless days will be over soon. I am excited and sad at the same time :-) You have a pretty weekend!

ooh! good luck with the new job!

Good luck with the new job! Look at the bright side, it will give you the extra money for fantabulous trips! :)

I wouldn't know what to do if I was out of work- I think it would be nice at first, but I'd go crazy after not so long. Good luck

Ugh, the trap of nerdy work.

Yay! You are back! :-)

So what sort of nerdy IT work is it that it won't be crazy hours? Nerdy isn't all bad. Though you could be a starving artist or a wine snob... ;-)

Hmm...how do you get notified of interviews? Mobile phone?
You can use that in the monastery?
Great to hear from you after a long absence...glad to know things are okay.

Ooh exactly what kinda clothes are you selling?

I understand you are VERY good at taking clothing off of people so that must have helped with the company making their final decision :)

Congratulations.

Congratulations! and I am sure you will be the good model to show the company new collection.. :)

Good luck on your new job.. :P

Welcome back Shigeki san! It has been a while isn't?! :-) Looking forward to your new life, new job and new beginnings.

Cheers, Ian

How cool it that? You come back and already you have a job!

Good luck, all the best!

Shigeki,

Haha...change your borders to orange -red and what happen to the plane?
Now you travel by broomstick?! LOL...It seems like something exciting had happen, man...

Have a nice day

Hi Raph,

Thanks very much. I will work okay, I think. You have a fantabulous week!

Hi TigerYogi,

Thank you very much! Yup. I will get extra money for fantabulous trips but I am not sure how fantabulous they will be. We will see. You have a fantabulous week!

Hi Fashmagslag,

Well, if you have anything you want when you are not working, you will automatically come up with things you do when you are jobless :) You have a fantabulou sweek!

Hi William,

That's one way to look at it obviously :-) You have a fantabulous week!

Hi Tk,

Yeah, I am back from this week actually :-) It was just a filler in September. The title says "Infrastructure Engineer" for the position I got. I am sure it will be something like servers and usual stuff. They assured the total amount of overtime would be somewhere around 10 hours a month! Yay. Even though this is a permanent position, I will consider it as a temp work as I won't stay there long :-) After that, I will figure out if I could be a wine snob or change the career path :-) You have a fantabulous week!

Hi sgx,

Well, when I was in Tokyo, I went to the job agent and told them about my schedule when I'd be back in Tokyo temporarily. So they could set the date for interviews :-) I wasn't able to use the mobile phone. Nope. Yup, things are going pretty good. I wish the same for you! You have a fantabulous week!


Hi Paul,

American casual clothes. That's all I am saying. You have a fantabulous week!

Hi Steve,

I should totally add that skill to my resume. I should have. :-) So I'd be a very good person to work in fitting rooms :-) You have a fantabulous week!

Hi Lifebook,

Well, I don't have long legs or pretty skin tone so I cannot be one of those people. Though I will appreciate the corporate discount :-) Thanks! You have a fantabulous week!

Hi Ian,

Thank you very much! Yeah, it has been awhile but I didn't feel it was long at all though. I see you have a lot of exciting new life as well! You have a fantabulous week!

Hi Maggie,

Well, I wasn't really looking for a job but I wanted to see if I was still a "hire-able". ;-) Besides, I needed a temp work to see if I really want to keep working in the field. Anyway, thanks very much and you have a fantabulous week!

HI Gayboydiary,

Thanks very much! You have a fantabulous week!

HI again, SGX,

Yup. it's a halloween edition color :-) Well, nothing exciting had happened actually. It's just usual :-) Tata!

Slightly late, but congratulations from me :-) I'm glad you've found something that you actually want to do, rather than take a job just because you need one.
