In our office we have coolbiz all year round so im happy as I've never liked ties. We can also crank down the AC to about 20 degrees which is just right for me.. It makes sense that if employees are happy then productivity goes up! I'm very happy!

Nessie, a perfect example of why eikaiwa is in the dumps right now. A minimum of TESOL or some receognized TEFL course should be required. None of these weird people masquerading as teachers.

Reading all the comments I can summarize that people think that English teaching is an easy ticket to Japan (for desperate and dateless men) and thus access to all the women that they cannot get back home. I agree with the comment that there should be more strict guidelines to filter out the unqualified people. A person with a masters degree in English will get the same pay as an unqualified (degree-less) person with a spouse visa.

Loser knucklehead "entertainers" who act like charisma man superstars have ruined the reputation for most quality teachers. English teaching in Japan has always been likened to junkfood fast food chain restaurants - they're cheap, ubiquitous and very bad for you. The so called teachers or entertainers that I've met have been total knuckleheads.

Does anyone know which is the closest train station to this site? Sagami or Odakyu line? Good photo.

I feel extremely bad for all those involved in this massive disaster. I thought that BP would've had the solid backup plans and preparations in case of events like this. I pray that Superman will fly in and clean this mess up....

I don't think he knows what he is doing on all other issues, not only the Futenma one. Bring back Koizumi.

It'll be embarrassing for him to comeback, noone gonna take him seriously anymore. The thing that stuck in my mind was that he lied to many many people. It'd be a miracle for his clean image to be repaired.

I feel sorry for all those foreigners who had to backpay and get on the system before this good news came into effect. How cheated they must have felt while others got off scotch free.

I felt sorry for Mao but she should be happy with silver. She knew she screwed up a little in her performance and I was shocked to see her sour sore loser attitude at the end and during her crying speech.
