i am so confused. so i shouldn`t wait and hope for a transfer?

is the smartest thing to find housing without a key deposit and move to osaka with him since he does have roomates? i don`t want to move to osaka. leave my company behind, and then not have somewhere to work. are my odds good for finding work there?

i am dizzy with questions and concerns here.

thank you all for you imput.

you are putting the cart before the horse.

Find the job first and then hand in your notice as soon as you get a solid offer. Otherwise you may quit your job and then find it takes you a month to find something. Put the feelers out now, send some emails and see what nibbles. You may have to explain your situation that you are in Nagano and it may be hard for you to attend an interview until you can arrive in Osaka.

The NOVA housing is for NOVA employees only and they usually dont allow couples, even ones who are married and a spouse is not working. My best suggestion for accomodation probably is a gaijin hostel, which is private rooms with shared living facilities. These dont chareg key money and rents are around 50-60,000 yen a month. KFM also has a few places advertised but most places (except Leo Palace and one or two others will demand 3-4 months key money).

okay thank you. i will start looking for jobs in osaka immediately. does anyone have any idea of good schools to research and try in that area that don`t require a university degree?

paul h, the cart before the horse comment: a character flaw that i`m working on.
