I have been following the recent news releases regarding RBS and bonuses paid in the BBC and it has left me feeling a bit down. It seems like the government has been quite heavy handed when dealing with RBS! Perhaps this is inevitable considering the current state of banks in general.
I mentioned in an e-mail to Yukiko that I will most likely not be able to get a Visa by 2nd March, because of the processing time. I really hope this isn't too much of a bother for everyone else :(
...Am I the only graduate trainee who isn't in Japan at this time?
I really look forwards to seeing all of you soon!
Hey Julian!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear from you. I'm sorry to hear about your visa troubles. I had to wait ages for my visa for my previous job in Japan, so you have my greatest sympathy.
I just got back to Japan on Monday, actually. As well as going back to England, I visited my brother in Prague. It's a very cool (and chilly) place.
It's definitely not only RBS that's facing these problems, though I must admit the news lately has been fairly disturbing. I'm feeling positive about the long-term future too, and it'll be nice to know that I'm playing some part in helping to fix a global crisis, no matter how small!
Any idea when you're likely to arrive? I guess it can be hard to predict, with visa applications.
Anyway, see you soon!
