Cute Party Time in Japan
// October 11th, 2005 // Uncategorized
Recently, I was looking for traineeship opportunities through AIESEC’s Work Abroad Program. Apart from some excellent professional positions that I’m considering I was forwarded this interesting opportunity.
"I' m interested in you!Our position is in kind of cute cafe, but teaching English to their customers.Customers enjoy speaking with taking some sips with tea or sweets!Sometimes they have cute party.We needs Native Speakersteaching English, with serving some foods for their customers.Ms. Yamamoto,the owner of this Cafe is great people, and enthusiastic for English education.You can learn a lot from her."
Now, as you well know I’m not one to turn down cute party, especially one that involves the sipping of tea or sweets at cute cafe. However, there is a more profitable business chatting to customers in Japan- and their cute party involves whiskey and many, many thousands of Yen.
And in these modern times of change, can’t we all learn a lot from
Ms. Yamamoto?


I hope someone with really bad English and a massive cultural superiority complex over the Japanese get this traineeship.
Think some overbearing 6 foot 4 guy, yelling at the cute little customers drinking from their hello kitty mugs – “ME YOU UNDERSTAND? THIS NO YOU BE SPEAKING RIGHT YES SIR!”
So, ah, Tom, you thinking about applying?
tom you were collecting those traineeships huh?
hey what LC is offering this traineeship?
It could either be a really good experience- if u wanted to converse with a lot of japanese- OR- it could be the living hell of having the same basic English conversation repeated ad nauseam, “I am from Australia. I like sake. I am 24. Those electronic dancing games make me feel uncomfortable”, etc.
