You know you're new job is going to be interesting when you only start work at 3am on Saturday night and you're onto your third shot of Jager 20 minutes after you clock in. Been enjoying the English teaching gig but got offered a job bartending at a small kareoke bar in downtown Osaka. Now like any full blooded young man I've had those dreams of opening up a bar when I retire and just having a blast.
Having a good time aside, it's pretty long (and weird) hours, lots of not so attractive women hitting on you and countless shots with people who are happy to see you. That said it's a bucket load of fun and being a bartender opens you up to a whole new side of entertainment. The place I work attracts a lot of foreigners and a lot of Japanese people (of all ages) so have had some interesting chats with guys who cut fish (seriously that's how they described their job) and another elder gentleman who successfully managed to lose about $10million somewhere along the way.
Anyway just got home, it's after 7am - time to put myself to bed...
