Commuting in japan honestly sounds like a breeze too, considering commuting in canada is usually a nightmare. |

Oh, for sure. Commuting in Japan is way easier. I'd prefer it to living in Kyoto. Those people are (mostly) judgemental dicks. I have friends there so I could handle it short term if I had to but...I just really dig Osaka. |

hey work crew, i don't mean to brag but... this morning i awoke to 7 people barking at me about 'urgent' deliverables that had nothing to do with my job. with a little skill and luck, i've managed to pawn them all off on one another, effectively weaving a daisy chain of panicky indecisive people with ill-defined needs, then slipping out of that daisy chain. now imma take a long lunch and maybe even hit the gym as they hurl accusations and recriminations at one another over email. today i am am the farter, and not the fartee

Without giving any context to why and without being any kind of computer toucher or marketing person in any way, let me state that SEO sucks as a field of marketing, makes texts bad and unreadable and is an insult to linguistics at large. Screw google for making this a thing.

I, for one, am looking forward to the downfall of capitalism, although I wouldn't survive long in a bartering system as I can't offer, or do, anything if value Maybe I can ghost write posts for 20 year old comedy forums, if anyone is interested in that as a skillset I'm off work next week, so look forward to some posting boys and girls!

Okay. I don't know what's happening. I guess we didn't get our brewing license, but there was finally progress? I don't know. I'm going to try and drop by tomorrow, see what's up, and if I can't get answers from anyone at the restaurant I'll see if they can tell me who to bug. Jesus. Even if we get it I have a lot of work ahead of me if I'm going to get everything ready. The brewery section has been being used as a storage area for the bar and kitchen so that has to be cleaned out, I don't know if they got a mill yet, if they did I have no idea where that's going to be set up, we don't have an adequate cold room for finished beer, and we don't have any 10 or 15 liter kegs (delivery companies won't cold ship 20 liter kegs here and most places don't order kegs that big) or our bottler yet, so we can't really do outside sales which would have been viable before, but not in the current environment I don't think. This is why non brewers shouldn't set up breweries! |

What the actual gently caress? Wait is this a good thing? This is a good thing right? In work related news I just stayed up until 1am trying to work out how to ungroup cells in a table in powerpoint so I can animate then separately and do we really have to keep doing this work thing? Like, until we're old?!!

Chewbecca posted:Wait is this a good thing? This is a good thing right? Possibly. I need to confirm things tomorrow. I think it may just be that progress towards getting it was finally made. If even only that is true it's good news because the time between the final inspection and licensing should take less than a month. |

Okay. The news was kind of cryptic. Basically they just told me that the next step has been reached and that's all that they know. I'm going to try to tease out more info possibly from someone higher up, but, based on what I know, The next step would be confirmation of the final inspection, it should take less than a month for the actual final inspection to take place, then very little time to licensing usually. |

Lock posted:coronavirus + japanese bureaucracy = sloooooooow, I take it? Osaka does not make getting a license easy but the company I work for has also not done a good job. We should have had our license before the pandemic. I've been stuck behind the bar or furloughed for over a year. I sorta wish I'd waited a while longer for the other place that wanted to hire me but I was burnt out by the last place and wanted to get away from that psycho boss. This guy nearby wants to hire me but he hasn't even started construction. I also think he wants to go real small scale which is better than nothing but I want to do more production. |

Boss asked me to hang out with a brewery rep and sample some beers at my second to last stop  The only downside of this work is that the last thing I want after work is to have a drink/go out drinking. It's buck wild to me how bartenders can enjoy coming in to hang out when they're off the clock! |

As I was pulling in to work, I remembered the time I had the c3p0 Waze voice, and pulling up to the gate, he said "you have arrived at your destination. Oh, what a desolate place this is" and I was like, oh 3p0, you have no idea how right you are. |

Most of the time I'm just flitting like a beer fairy from bar to bar cleaning their stuff and chatting with bartenders and patrons. Its extremely chill and my bosses are all great and it pays OK. Sometimes I have special trips, like something's broken and spraying beer everywhere  or like today where I have to deliver a bunch of cases and kegs to a fancy cigar bar that's just reopened  I can also fix neon signs, although our replacement parts supplier in the US just closed shop so we've stopped doing that sadly.

Thinking I should get my poo poo together and start working towards opening my own loving place. It's going to be brutal getting things going but maybe I can do this? Need to work on a business plan first.
