Wait, where? If you say anything other than Japan, that's odd.

>> No.3372661

They have Japanese bookstores in the US, you know.
Kinokuniya, for example.

>> No.3372666

kinokuniya is probably where he's applying to.

Also, Good luck if you arnt Asian. They also tend to hate hiring weeaboos, atleast guy weeaboos.

Never knew they'd get enough business oversees. I guess massive cities like New York and LA are different, though.

I called Kinokuniya asking if they had a Japanese book, some old hag picked up talking in thickening english.

yeh mostly located in major cities with a high weeaboo population. i know the one in San Fransisco is a cesspool. People cosplay there on weekends for no reason... i want to punch them all in the face.

Haha nah-- I have a few Jap friends although their parents are always surprised when I can understand grorious nippongo and comment on how unexpected it is for a chink to have interest in japanese related language.

>>3372734

why am i a bit hesitant to tell!

>>3372740

Dude it's alright. They wouldn't have called you in for an interview to begin with if they weren't even considering hiring you. They might have just put you on a waitlist or something, it's happened to me a few times last year.

Don't worry about it~

If you hide your cultural-isms, there's only a few mostly unnoticeable physical differences between a chink and a nip. Just pretend you fit in.

Holy shit, they're hiring? For what?

I applied to a fig store a week ago and didn't get a reply yet or ever. Probably wanted retail experience. Faggot, who needs retail experience when I have product knowledge.

>> No.3372830

>>3372781

No idea to be honest. The one at the Palisades Center branch had some now hiring fliers hanging around and I inquired there.

Then they directed me to the Manhattan branch, which I emailed and then they called me earlier today asking if I could come in tomorrow.

Kinda impromptu and out of nowhere since I sent the email like a month ago but whatever.

>>3372769

Sorry man!

>>3372772

This is pretty true, but some people have some retarded uncanny ability to just point out the differences in Asian races, it's pretty nuts.

>>3372796

Fig store where?

>> No.3372831

>>3372796
Silly weeaboo you'd probably just hide all the figs you wanted

I applied to an anime store that was moving into town, Went there several times before it opened to try to get to know the owner. Went to interview showed him my vast knowlege of anime, and programing. ( I program in the language his Point of sales system uses).

2 Weeks later i go in for the grand opening to find out a hot chick was hired instead of me and she knows shit about anime...

Was this to pick out Japs living here to send to camps, since people were having trouble distinguishing them? The whole issued boots and officer thing is pretty paranoid.

America really throws any sense of reason out the window during war, or even a conflict.

the one close to ours make some pretty penny off of Japanese major/minor college student, since a few of the professors order textbook from there.

Good luck anon.

I have an interview with what may or may not be some sort of viral marketing pyramid scheme tomorrow. The friend who recommended me to the people who run it is a nice person though so I'm hoping it might actually pan out and I can work from anywhere with an internet connection.
