At Narita the Airline has 20 counters but only 2 highschool grads checking in everyone. Also in the background of the 2 checking everyone in is 10 idiots milling around uselessly.

ANA sucks when you are in CATTLE class. The seats make you feel like you booty is in a vice and then there is the lack of leg room for anyone over 4 feet tall.

I can tell you that if you quit a job or sign any paper that says that you are resigning for any reason, that you have to wait 3 months before you can get unemployment benefits.
Some companies will try to trick you into signing something like that because it gets them off the hook for paying your unemployment.
On the other hand if you are "fired", you can get unemployment benefits within a few days or a week. Here is some tips that you should know.
If your job is going south, keep your mouth shut and make them fire you. If you have been at a job longer than 6 months, it's nearly impossible for a company to fire you. (unless you do something against the law.)
If your company is going to let you go DON'T SIGN ANYTHING! You are not required by law to sign any document. They can not hold your salary. They have to pay it. If they threaten you that they will hold your pay. Walk out and head down to the Ministry of Labor and register a complaint. They will jump through hoops to pay you off to settle that.
Tell the HR person that you want your Rishoku-hyo immediately. This is the paper you will have to turn in to the Hello Works office to get your unemployment.
After that go immediately to your local Hello Work office. This is the Japanese unemployment office. They have 1000's of jobs, and the companies that hire people introduced by Hello Work do not have to pay any recruiter fees. That will make your resume that much more appealing to the companies that they introduce you to.
Don't let your ability to speak Japanese bother you about going to Hello Work. They have a special on in Shinjuku just for us foreigners. The people that work there are very nice and very willing to go the extra mile to help you.

Stressed out at work... That seems to be an excuse for every j-creep out there. How about we let him get stressed out in prison?

“Even with a part-time job at an izakaya (pub), Chinese manage to send money back home,” a Japanese journalist based in China warns. “So the Chinese who come to Japan to study bring their families over. Anyone can find work as waiters or in convenience stores, or as a janitor, so if a Chinatown can be established, they’ll wind up bringing in their whole family one at a time, including by illegal means.”
Ahhhh... the stentch of Xenophobia....

Why is it that everyone want Japan to stop, but no one bats an eyelash about Iceland and Norway. They probably do twice a much.

Apply for an Amex. They approve everyone. I get Credit cards without even applying these days. I end up cutting them up and sticking to one card for purchases and one for automatic billing for keitai, electric, cable.. etc.

Japan doesn't officially have an army. They have a Self Defense force. Plus Japan doesn't abide by the UN rules against racial discrimination. THey have no place applying for the security counsil. Internationally Japan is a freaking joke.
