I am working at the same place as before with almost the same team. There are two new team members but one will start in directly in Nagoya.
I also received my beloved Uniform that I had to wear to go in the laboratories with Tamura for some project explanations...
Finally I received a brief introduction about my working conditions, salary etc... This month I am still considered as a Trainee because of late VISA (Thanks Nagoya people!)
As a foreigner in the company you expect the papers to be written in English as you have a special status of Global Staff as they call me but no, everything is in Japanese and not easy Japanese and not 1-2 pages, more than 20! This is meaningless! Actually in JTEKT Coproration (12'000 employees) there are only two foreigners with the same status including me! That's crazy!
I came back home very tired and with the only wish to take a shower as it is very wet these days!
Saturday was a chill out day at home with some shopping in the Geek street's of Nipponbashi. But sunday was intensive! 20km hiking and running in the mountains of Nara with a group of 7 people! It was fun and good for our bodies! The track is pretty difficult with lot of slopes! That's good for the hips... Yeah do I need it?
Next time I hope I can go there by car and do some biking! The road is nice and you get a crazy view on Osaka!
Until next time, Sayonara! Aris
