  1. There’s a small tap in the toilet room for washing hands; recently the flow has got kind of sluggish. My wife suggested cleaning it but I can’t see how or where; there’s a little grille where the water comes out so I could try and scrub at that as is, but it feels like there should be a way to open it up or something. Anyone done this before?

  2. As a non-PR holder, has anyone been fired or laid off? If you could find a job within 3 months, what did you do?

  3. Who opens up the crow boxes on trash day? They’re closed when I go to bed, and open (and full) when I get up and take out the trash.

    Threw me off ‘cause it wasn’t open this morning and all the trash bags were piled behind the closed-up nets.

  4. Anybody know of cold storage options I can use?
    We’re moving houses soon so we need to turn off our fridge.
    Unfortunately, we have tons of meat still in the freezer and it would be a waste and costly to throw them away.
    We already offerred to our friends but they either don’t want it or their fridge is full/too small.

    We have a cooler than we plan to use but we’re worried that this will still spoil our meat.

  5. Where is a good place to find a baito? I don’t want my email spammed with scouts and opportunities like 500x a day :/ .

  6. After I see a local clinic or doctor, I often need to sit in the waiting room for 5-10 minutes before they call me up and give me my bill. Why does this process take so long and what are they doing?

    I don’t.. blame them, but I’m wondering if the nurses/clerks have to manually calculate my insurance burden? For each patient? Can someone give me a detailed breakdown of what they’re doing?

  7. So I ordered something off Amazon. It shipped then literally 5 minutes later it said “undeliverable” and canceled.

    Jw what would make an order undeliverable so quickly? I’d understand if there was a natural disaster or something.

    I just ordered the same thing but from a different seller on Amazon and it seems to have shipped no problem.

  8. i have never brought anything in on yodobashi camera warranty before but I’m bringing in my Panasonic iron today.

    do I have to do to the same YC that I bought it from? what happens there? do I just leave it with them? can I ask for a refund?

  9. As a non-American living in Japan, I wonder how difficult it is to get a full-time full-remote position with an American company (game industry).

    My current company gave me a short notice about a meeting on Monday where I need to defend all my work done during the trial period, with the possibility of ending the contract by the end of July.

    I just want to know what my possibilities are, in case they decide not to convert me to full-time.

  10. I reread my lease contract for my apartment. It doesn’t say anything specific about not painting the walls. Could I simply paint and repaint before I leave? (I’ll be staying in this apartment for at least 5 years, so cost of paint/primer isn’t something I’m concerned about.)

  11. JLPT instructions say bring an analogue watch. But there is a clock in the room isn’t there?

  12. Taco Bell in Odaiba has a super-minimal “Weekend Only” menu

    一体何?

    Is that true for all locations?

  13. What’s the deal with older western folks here calling everything ‘Jsomething’?

    Jwife, Jhusband, Jphone, Jboss, Japartment. It’s so frickin weird! I just can’t figure out where it comes from.
