    Embarrassing experience - Mina - Cheating Lady boy in Akasaka Crystal Hotel (Tinder Warning)

    From the image you attached, I'm pretty sure that's not a girl. Her face is weird and unnatural.

    Xmas is here 2018

    I always imagine myself going to church on Christmas, praying and holding my girlfriend's hand, walking under the snow slowly, feeling the Holly Spirit. Still struggled to do that in Japan. But what is the church that you were talking about? At least i'd like to know what it is like on...

    30,000 yen budget for 2 hours course

    I'm just wondering if there are any providers on that budget except for Soapland somewhere in Taito-ku. (of course FS included with Japanese lady) I only know AM which is closest to that range.

    Average salary for IT guys who are under 30?

    My Japanese is not perfect but i think it's good enough for working environment. ~N1 I also hold some international certificates, not CCNA but cloud platform and still try my best to broaden my knowledge. But as you said, 2 years is nothing. I also believe in "nothing beats experience"...

    Average salary for IT guys who are under 30?

    Damn, you're right. I think I was japanized more or less :D Maybe i need to take some courses about negotiation. :p Anyway, each company has their own "salary ranking" or sth like that. I guess there's no chance to ask for 6m while their 事業部長 only earns 7m :rolleyes:

    Average salary for IT guys who are under 30?

    Thanks. Personally i think it's unreliable cause they will decided the number based on skills. Besides, i'd love to hear opinions from you guys here. What would be the "ideal" number for 27 years old guy with 2 years of experiences in Cloud computing/Solution Architect? Thanks Simonka...

    Average salary for IT guys who are under 30?

    Lately i've been asking some of my Japanese friends who are working in IT fields what they think about < 4m yen salary annually for someone who's under 30.
