Like an Album's Filler Song

Hey guys,

I'm moving apartments! Ever since my explode-y shower has been unreliable, starting in January, I have been going to the gym shower and the onsen. Because of this, I am moving to the apartment building across from me. It is exactly the same as the place I'm in now, plus or minus some interesting developments. Plus: The view is nicer. Minus: I haven't found a place I can hook up my washing machine. Plus: I just cleaned it with my friends, so it's probably a lot cleaner than my current apartment. Minus: There's someone next door, who's living room and bedroom are flush against mine. I've got to finish packing up my old stuff and moving it. I have until next Monday. Oy vey. ね。

Not much else to write about. It's getting warmer and warmer. I'm looking forward to Cool Biz soon. Then I can stop wearing these long-sleeved shirts.

I wanted to write something clever for you. It's just not meant to be. I'll let you know when it omes ;).

About Me

Hi, I'm Greg, but you can call me by my Japanese name, Gureggu, if you'd like. I'm writing this blog to explain effective ways to do business with Japan and Japanese companies. Why? Japanese companies are notoriously difficult to understand, and doing business in Japan has a unique set of hurdles.

Why I'm qualified to write about Japan: I have worked in Japan for a total of 8 years. I worked sales at a Japanese import/export company (subsidiary of a much larger corporation) as the only foreigner in the company. Before that, I taught for 2 years at High Schools and 3 years teaching elementary and middle school in Aomori Prefecture. I have lived the life of a salaryman and experienced firsthand the institutions that shape Japanese people in their most formative years.
