こんにちは。昨日の分の日記から英語で日記を書き始めたのでゆるく見てくれるとありがたいです!
今日は1日働いて日本円に計算したら28000円以上1日で稼いでいたので記事にしてみました、、
My Experience and Insights
I worked at sushi restaurant with japanese staffs for 9.5 hours.
Most of Japanese staff is so kind for me, they taught me how to make sushi, but I couldn’t memorize all of them, because there are so many sort of menu.
Long Hours and Rest Time at the Sushi Restaurant
I had to work in this restaurant 10AM to 9PM, but I had to take a rest for 1 and half hours.
I think the time to take a rest for 1 and half hours is so long(I’d like to work more).
Australian Coworkers and Work Culture
There are coworkers who are from Australia in sushi restaurant.
While rest time, I tried to talk with her.
She work in this restaurant for 6 years, in spite of she is 19 years old.
I was surprised people living in Australia can work from junior high school student.
Making money by themselves is so good experience for children, and I think the reason that most of customers are kind is included.
Different Perspectives on Post-High School Life
She graduated from high school 1 month ago, and she keep working this restaurant.
I was surprised that because when I lived in Japan, I thought that I had to work or to go to university after graduated high school.
However I realized that it’s important for someone to think about their lives.
Life is only once, so I think there are people who need to stop and think their life.
The Importance of Taking a Break and Reflecting
It’s not difficult things for everyone, but I didn’t think that things, because I hesitated to stop my life.
Of course, there are people who don’t need thinking time of their lives like not taking a rest.
However there are people who need to take a rest and think about my life like me;)
I think what I need is to know the options to take a rest like working holiday.
Most of Japanese people walk a predetermined path, after graduating university most of them start working, and then, they start raising their children.
I don’t wanna deny their life, but I think we should know we can choose our life.
Our life is for ours, not for our parents, friends, Japanese government and children.
We can be happiness after finding what I really wanna do.
Aspirations and Respect for Coworkers
She have already known about these things, that’s why I respect her.
Her plan is to become a flight attendant After this year.
This is not easy way, but I would cheer her.
And then, we talked about her family and how to spend time while her day off.
One of my purpose to come to Australia is to become a friends who is from Australia and know about their lifestyle and their mind, so I’d like to talk with her more.
Finishing the Workday and Future Plans
I finished working at 9PM, if I work until last time, we can get sushi on the lane.
That is so good for me, because I don’t have to make dinner.
To cook something is great time for me, but If I can get meal, I can reduce the cost of one meal.
In the way, I finished working today, but I have also work tomorrow morning.
I’d like to save a lot of money to go travel around Australia!
