this is ofcourse stating the obvious but if they ask you for 30,000 yen to teach tell them to #### off.

I'm getting this deja vu kind of feeling. And before you ask, no, I have never worked for LSJ.

So you do work for lsj whats it like now doesvsekiguchi have an office? or is he still running his business from a coffee shop dutour in chiba?
all I can say is the schools he has contracts with must be really stupid to keep using his company if people quit left right and center as soon as he tries to deduct money from them. But I heard from a guy in the irish piub in Shinjuku he is able to keep the contracts as his overheads are so low, i.e not declaring workers and not having an office and not paying people their salaries for petty things.

Anyone I know he company lost lots of contracts in the past few years so there are probably only 2 or 3 suckers still working there but any of them ever read this forum? I know Guest of Japan used to.\ until he was nearly outed.
