Roger's head 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 That other thread brought up an interesting point - what type of work contract you doing? full time permanent position limited contracts (more than 1 year) annual contract that needs to be renewed self employed part time unemployed ski bum I have to keep on doing annual renewals which is getting to be annoying. I need to find something either here or back in my home country that is a bit more settled at least for a few years Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 I just agreed a further 3 years recently. I think it might be time up after that and I will want to pack up and leave Japan. A lot can happen before then though. Link to post Share on other sites

HeatherLocklearRocks 1 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 So are you a porn actor as well as tsondaboy Sir Jib? I have just resigned for another year. Always a but uneasy not planning further than that. Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 I don't know about that SirJib, I would assume you would contract all sorts of nasties in that industry. Not "limited" at all. Link to post Share on other sites

slimeypete 0 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Signed on for another year last week. While I have to do that, I basically have the option to be here for another 2 years after that (any maybe more on top of that), it just has to be formally renewed each year.

daver 0 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 yearly renewed contracts. but this year complications have arose. i can renew my contract with the company, but not at my current school as they have lost their contract. it's either a new job, move, or move on...

nagoid 4 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 I renew every year (until now) but there is an understanding that I'm here for 5 years so I haven't felt uneasy about it. After that, not sure what will be happening. A friend of mine was renwe every year and only found out if it was on or not 2 weeks or so before the date. That caused him a lot of headaches and I thought was very unfair. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Full time contract. But I can't see myself here in 5 years, I hope to be headhunted good and proper by a place I want to go to in the next two. I don't think I'll ever be living in Japan, however appealing it may seem to me in many respects. Link to post Share on other sites
