I process a lot of shit that tends to explode because of upper-
management incompetence, yielding a cancerous inefficiency that is
buried under dense denails and obfuscation. Does that count?

I would give just about anything for the right job in Kansai. Can't
teach any more; need more money and not sure I can go back to that
lifestyle. Of course, my wife and son have zero desire to return, so
I'd have to add to the 'dream job' thing a need for enough money to
send my son to an international school, because he has forgotten most
of his Japanese. There are a hundred other obstacles, of course,
starting with the lack of job.
