Squeezed between two sides.

It is clear to me now that Interac is part of a system meant to funnel foreigners out of japan.

Think about that for a minute.

The company I work for is part of a system that is meant to make sure that people can only temporarily come to japan.

How is that so I may ask?

What kind of job tells you that you are not working during the 10 minute break between class?

What kind of job demands that you voluntarily stay at from 8 to 4?

What part time job has no method of applying for overtime?

What full time job chooses to only to treat foreigners a special in which case, dont deserve the full rights of japanese full time workers?

The system is two walls. A company that wont give your social issurance and a government that only enforces laws against the weakest in their society. Basically if you move every year, you can escape paying health care, but you have to pay 3 months rent to move into a new place. If you stay, you have to duck and dodge the insurance office.

Im not angry writing this, i just think for anyone that is studying japanese, be prepared to come here to do something else besides teaching. It is a scum business. The work is amazingly fullfilling, but the employers are scum. They will use a young cute japanese face and japanese prejudice to superseed your ability and experience.

Very sad, very backwards and very japan.

Health care become more a privelege and less a right each and everyday. Japan, if i cant be covered under your laws, dont ask me to take care of your old people.

You all can do that on your own.
