I always wondered what kind of person would take a job as an NHK fee collector.


NHK fee collector arrested for chopping up ex-wife's body
A fee collector for public broadcaster NHK who turned himself in to police, saying he had chopped up his former wife's body, was arrested Thursday along with a female roommate on suspicion of mutilating a corpse, police said.

And, yes, I am indicting the whole lot of NHK fee collectors. One of the few cases where I feel justified in generalizing.

Just thinking of this and the Fukushima-ken story, when the Japanese commit murder, they go ALL-OUT!!!

Not just kill, but multilate the s.o.b.!!

Whew, thank goodness I didn't let the NHK guy into the building last week! We have "autolock" with a camera thing that lets us see who is in the lobby.

If I don't know the person I usually don't even answer but I was expecting a package and the guy was holding something- it turned out to be a kind of electronic notebook.

I pretended not to understand any Japanese and asked him to come back when my husband was home, and gave a time when I knew both of us would be out.

Now I feel even more justified in doing that!

Good job we are in a profession that has no history of psychopathic behaviour, eh?

I say this with complete confidence that no one can post a story to contradict me.

(Which means: post some stories of English teachers doing similar things please.)

Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but I myself have found that student fingers taste pretty good coated with wasabi.
