I grew up and raised in Osaka, so I speak Osaka dialect. I have a pretty thick Osaka accent. When I had worked in Tokyo, I was struggling to speak standard Japanese. People have a prejudice against Osaka dialect speakers. They think Osaka people is more friendly than Tokyo people, but They are less polite than people in Tokyo. Osaka dialect come across like that. So, my boss lectured me not to use Osaka dialect in case our client do not irritate because of my accent. I paid attention to speak standard Japanese. But, it did not roll off my tongue.  My boss said that I got used to speak standard Japanese. I could not sink in yet, but when I touched base with my parent, she told me not to talk in standard Japanese. I realized that I became standard Japanese speaker.

Beseball Game I went to a stadium to watch baseball game for the first time in ages. My mother said I do not to need to go out of my way to watch in place in case the coronavirus contracts me. But, this game is geared toward donating to medical facilities. The revenue of this game will be sent to medical associations. I wish my money will come in handy to help doctors care the cases. This game is ORIX Buffaloes vs Nippomham Fighters. My favorite team is Nippomham Fighters. Fighters was on the load in Osaka. Fighters was not fire because it was overwhelmed by the ORIX fan’s enthusiastic cheerings. Everyone might thought that ORIX won a runaway victory. However, Nippomham made hits in a row in the 9th inning. The bases are loaded with two outs. Then, one young player stepped to the plate as a pinch hitter. To tell the truth, we got discouraged a little bit by this manager’s choice because this player often chokes and is not killing recently. But, he drove in all the runners by smacking the ball into left for a base hit and the game was tied up. Finally, Fighters scored two in extra innings and won. This game was wake-up call for me not to be able to imagine what is ahead until last innings in baseball game. I had a blast weekend.

이번 4월에 저는 실업자가 됐습니다. 코로나 19가 가져온 영향은 상상보다 심각해서 회시는 인건비를 줄여야 겨우 유지할 수 있는 처지가 됐습니다. 저도 끝내 해고당했습니다. 5월에 고향에 내려와 지금 부모님과 본가에서 같이 살고 있습니다. 부모님은 상황이 이러니까 서둘러 구직준비를 안해도 된다고 하셨지만 부모님이 허락해주셔도 사회가 저를 허락해 주지 않겠습니다. 한창 일할 나이인 20대 남자가 일도 안하고 부모님에게 얹혀사는 것은 좋지는 않습니다. 새로 아르바이트를 시작했습니다. 에어컨을 수리하거나 검사하는 일입니다. 급료가 괜찮고 남과 이야기할 필요는 없고 코로나 감염의 위험성도 거의 없기 때문에 아르바이트를 하게 됐습니다. 월급은 계좌에 납입되지 않습니다. 그 대신에 현금을 넣은 봉투를 받습니다. 월말에는 그 봉투를 가지고 시청에 가고 세금과 연금과 국민보험을 지불합니다. 납세하면 월급의 절반 이상이 없어집니다.

I am a big on baseball games. My favorite team is Hokkaido Nipponham Fighters. Its games keep me on the edge of my seat. Today I’d like to introduce this team. Its he stomping ground is Hokkaido. But, originally it had played mainly in Tokyo. food giant ‘Nippomham’ bought up this team in 2003, and then this team moved to Hokkaido. But, because out of the left field, this firm decided to purchase this team and decided to move to Hokkaido, Hokkaido could not prepare to accept that new team moved there. This team did not have their own team. It shares the use of Sapporo dome with soccer team. New stadium has been under construction.

Ｂｏｎｕｓ My wishful thinking is getting a bonus in the end of this month and purchasing new laptop. But, I do not back on this year’s bonus. I have a hunch bonus will not be paid. Coronavirus did not hit our company very hard, but according to a statement of accounts, the sales are going down, so it will be a bit of stretch to get a bonus.
