  • Also really depends on the frequency and reason. Did something go horribly wrong once and does this one-time effort fix it or gives enough time for a decent solution down the road? Sure, I'll put in some extra work. Don't look for me though when it's resolved, I'm on holiday with all the overtime I should've gotten. If it's a structural problem because management wants to squeeze as much money out of their employees and refuses to hire enough people... Fuck that. And yeah, corporate uses the first thing as an excuse, luring you into staying longer "one more time, we really can't do it without you".

  • Not OP, not from the US and never been in Japan but I travel a lot in general: always assume local currency, at the very least it's going to be cheaper and quite probably only very touristy places or airport only might accept $$. Here you can pre-order cash at your local bank and return any excess notes after. Exchange booths are usually a rip-off, and withdrawal abroad might cost extra, check with your bank.

    Also don't assume people speak English. They might, but treat that as a bonus.

  • Maybe for short times, but I've heard about dogs getting paralyzed at the groomers' from being put in a harness for too long. Veins get pinched. And that's with a harness meant for dogs, not something improvised like this.

  • Oh we definitely have racism. It's just less "black lives matter" and more "only my skin colour matters". And yeah, this definitely extends to the police too. But given they're very, very scrutinised every time they dare pull their gun in public, at least we don't have the "police raids wrong unit and shoots owner" happenings.

    What is happening is still far from OK, any instance of racism is one too many, but the problems here are a bit more nuanced than what is in general shared on a public, overly-Americanized forum.

    And in case you are American/Canadian/Australian, can I please point back to whatever is still happening to your native population? Not a single country is free from blame from what they did to other or their own nations. Call me butthurt, but I'm getting quite a bit tired of getting called out on the Congo on every single thread mentioning Belgium while that was mostly, originally one man's doing. Again, nuance, I know more stuff happened afterwards, but it's not relevant to this thread.

  • Well if actual crochet is used, you will have to pay good money. Crochet can't be properly replicated by machines so it's allll handmade (unlike knitting, which is quite easy on machines).
