Other countries, other customs. So they say. But ...!
I had in Germany many times before are welcome to do the "fun" an official response. And I must emphasize that a transition is to an office in Bremen very agreeable, in Berlin, the whole thing but even once can be a pain ...
as far as introduction.
went on Friday it was that I went to my first course in a public authority in a foreign country. In Germany, we have heard that Japan is a very bureaucratised country and they could definitely compete with Germany, but I do something "could" I would not have even dreamed of! Actually I wanted to write this, but I have it now on several occasions given to the best and think that humanity has a right to know it! Here we go: To
To make an internship with the money you earn, you have its "status of RESIDE" from "student" to anything other changeable. So far so good, I thought, I do it again and went with Michael, who also had to do it, but by his employer had already done everything necessary to go to Shinagawa 品 川 in Tokyo for there to the Immigration Office.
In the entrance hall was an information booth, this one should not hesitate to get the necessary forms. Ok, so go there! The conversation was in Japanese, so I give here only about (and somewhat exaggerated) as you did it again:
"Good day, I would like my" status of Residens. "changeable" I said.
"Good day, what status you hold for the moment," said the nice lady at the counter.
"Right now I am an exchange student and I would like to do an internship." I replied. (Fatal error)
"Aja, you have the 2nd Stock (in Japanese, so a floor in Deuzschland) daundda gone! "
" Thank you very much! "
On 2nd Stock: I see Michael, he just speaks to someone at a counter, the switch is not where I was sent out! But I will exactly the same as it !?!?!
The nearest information desk ". Change?" Good day, what status you currently hold because "
" Good day, I would like my "status of Residens
said the nice lady at the counter.
"Right now I am an exchange student and I would like to do an internship." I replied. (Perhaps familiar?)
"Aso, then they must be on the 1st floor (EC), the form for changing the" Get status of RESIDE "! Since in the Info Desk!
? Aso (disbelief) Then I do that, will you? "
In a floor Info Desk:
" Hello, (I am again) I [form for changing the "status of RESIDE"] need.
"You are a student at the moment, you said it?"
"Yes." (Fehler!!)
"If you earn money in the internship?"
"Yes." (Bad mistake)
"So, the moment you are on the state the same footing a Japanese student, if you now want to change the status, then you go on the 2nd floor contact point dortunddort, since it can help them. "
" Hmm, thanks. "I said a little skeptical.
the 2nd floor, dortunddort
I stand around 5 min without changing anyone feels responsible or I could pull ne number or something happened ... So I decide
back to the nice woman on the 2nd floor to go at the information desk.
"Hi, (I again), the wife wants down there do not give me the form, it has me sent there dortunddort."
"Funny, But you need this form!"
"Hmm, could you write me, maybe?" (Fatal error: for now it is not so friendly)
"I have nothing to write here! Go to the wife and tell her you need the [form for changing the "status of RESIDE"] but your Japanese is good or not, You will be able to make it quite clear the woman! "
" Aja, thanks, I'll try it again. "I say, already at the end of my patience! Did I mention that prevailed in the building felt 30 degrees?
In a floor Info Desk:
"Well, I [form needed for changing the" status of Residens "]!!!"
"Oh, you again? I think then the issue here is not, you must return to your country and from there can change from the status, "she says, looking at the next in the series!
"Sorry! I will not return determined in my country! A friend of mine does here the same thing, what I need and he is not returned to "his country"! "
" What country do you come? "
" Germany. "
" Well, I see no other alternative, you have in your country, this Germany, back and apply for there! "
(Of course, now I fly sometimes just returned to my country! If you are still very close?)
the 2nd floor, talking to Miach :
I say: "And how is" hoping that he has any problems.
"Ah, you are, as far as I am, no problems and you? Can we go? "
"Ahhh, no, I have to stay a little here ..."
"Oh? Why not? "
" AAAAAAAAA because hate me here or something! Have you ever NEN pen and what to write? "
" clear here, for what? "
" I write to now as the form in Japanese means "
" Ok, then I'll go before. "
" Sure! " (! Leave me alone here yet)
In a floor Info Desk:
I'm lucky, the "nice" lady NEN other customers. So
to a slightly younger, "Can you speak English?"
"Of course. What would you like? "
(thank God!)" I would like the [form for changing the "status of RESIDE"]! "
" No problem "(no, she actually said that now? Or is that just wishful thinking)
"Aja, thanks!"
you to the "nice" lady?
"I need time, the [form for changing the" status of RESIDE "] for this nice gentleman."
Nice lady: "For? The first time is to return to his country! I have already told him! "(And if looks could kill, I could report that not deliver) I
in English: "But I only need the form to have me and the other said and my buddy has done just that here, too, exactly!"
the disciples: "Now we give him support the form if this is wrong, he can still return to his country ... "(or very hospitable? When the fuck off the entlich back to his country and leave us alone?)
has good Well, here he form it! "says the" nice "finally!
Conclusion: my Japanese is already good enough to tell people what I want! (! Very good) problem: whether people are understanding and give me what I will, is in any other country!
