If you have worked for a black company, are currently working for a black company, have been in a company where the black situation has been improved, or have filed a black situation 》(illegal ・ violation 》) with the DOL, please contact me to share your experience with black workplaces.
By the way, I am in a black company in California where PSL and split premium are not provided. I suspect that my co-workers are probably getting the same treatment. I don't see any sign of the situation improving …

I am currently a sophomore undergraduate majoring in Information Technology.
The main purpose of the training is to learn about entrepreneurship, and we are planning to visit Intel and Google headquarters, Stanford University and Computer History Museum.
So, I would like to visit some interesting places during my free time on 3/13
(from morning till noon)
to do some sightseeing as well,I would like to know any places you recommend!
Personally, I like NBA, so I would like to go to Warriors shop
but
if I go from San Jose, is it realistic considering round trip time ?
I also want to talk about NBA and welcome anyone who wants to go with me. I would also welcome anyone who would like to talk about the NBA or go with me, so please contact me.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

I'm Nooy, I love fashion, beauty, dogs, cooking, supplements, sweets, fruits 🍎 and music.
I created this topic to exchange information with various people here. I had such a nice meal in San Francisco. ! I love this brand now
Please write your opinions without denying them.
Let me start with you.
I recently got a job and wanted uniform-like casual wear, so I bought a blouse and pants from Karl Lagerfeld at Macy's. → It looks like the uniform of the current CHANEL boutique.
I like Hinodeya for ramen.
For makeup, I like MAC, DIOR, and Guerlain. Especially, Guerlain base makeup is expensive, but it's very long-lasting, so it's more cost-effective than petit-price makeup.
Recently, I feel that my eyesight has decreased due to the dark lighting in the U.S., so I take Preser Vision, a supplement to restore my eyesight. The amount of zinc is too much for my weak stomach, so I take one tablet a day, but I feel that my eyesight is improved.
As for cooking, I make use of Japanese, Chinese, Trejo, and H mart to cook cheap and delicious food.
I recently bought mushroom flavor powder from Trejo. I recommend it as it gives a depth of flavor like a taste enhancer.
Eating out. MASTRO'S, which has very good meat and seafood. The lobster potage is also very good, but it comes in about a bowlful, so one bowl is enough for two or three people. The accompanying bread is also delicious in many varieties, so be careful not to ask for too much.
So, please tell us all about it.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

For lobster, I recommend the New England Lobster Market&Eatery in Burlingame.

I am moving from the Bay Area to New York next month, and I am thinking of hiring a transportation company to move my private car. However, most of the companies I've checked on the internet charge more than the initial quote, and I'm wondering which company to choose. If you guys know of any good car transport companies in the Bay Area, I would appreciate it if you could let me know.

I used it about 4 years ago.
https://www.roadrunnerautotransport.com/
I had no problems then.
If I had to hazard a guess, I would say
1, you can't set a specific date and time for pickup and drop off, and I remember having to be flexible for a week or two for both.
2, I chose to meet them at a large location because they would come to pick me up in a large truck that carried my car. It seems like you can't move within a small residential community that is gated or something.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

Keeping Tropical Fish Differences from Japan

Are you a tropical fish breeder in the U.S.A.?
If you have the following information, please advise me.
・ Please tell us what kind of conditioner you use to remove calcium from the water.
In Japan, we used tap water with Eheim 4 in 1.
I often hear that the water in the U.S. is hard water and the water in Silicon Valley is not undrinkable, but I hear that it is hard water in Kanto and I can't quite grasp the image.
・ I think I will install a heater for the aquarium tank in winter, but is it OK to use a Japanese one as it is?
Would it be better to procure one locally?
・ I found Petsmart as an aqua store, but is there any other aqua stores?This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Thanks to the cooperation of many people, we have safely brought Corydoras from Japan.
I just wanted to share some information as I am getting settled into life in Palo Alto.
・ Tap water tastes the same as in Japan. ( I used to drink tap water as it is in Japan. )
I still have some 4 in 1 that I brought from Japan, so I use it to remove chlorine.
As for bactericide, I use TOPFIN biological clearner which I bought here.
・ The filtering system, Eheim 2213, was shipped separately by air, discarding the filter media.
・ The filter media, hoses, and water tank were purchased from Amazon.
The tank was purchased as a starter set, so the filtration system could be used as a connection until the Eheim arrived.
( Corydoras pandas finally started to survive after switching to Eheim, so Eheim was a must-have product. I don't know how I held on to it until it arrived )
・ The bucket was purchased at Dollar Tree. I feel like I can't really find the bucket.
In Japan, I fed Kyorin's Vitacrin Red Beetle, but they do not eat the Red Beetle I bought here at all and I am looking for something else.I thought all akamushi were the same, but I guess they taste different.
Now I feed them corribits that I brought from Japan.
If you have any information on recommended food for corydoras, please let me know.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

My first choice is to work for a semiconductor company in the U.S. ( I have experience working in both Japan and the U.S. ),
Can you recommend a recruitment agency for engineers living in the U.S. ?
? I've heard that there are various companies that are strong in engineering and those that are not.

Personal Customs Clearance at Airports in the U.S.

I would like to know if anyone has cleared customs privately at San Francisco airport or other airports in the U.S., and if so, I would appreciate your wisdom.
I was able to arrange for the export, but I was told to take care of the import and subsequent procedures on my own.
Could you please tell us what the procedure was like?
If the procedure is difficult, I would like to find a company that can handle customs clearance on my behalf, but if you have any information on how to find one, please let me know.
The package contains tropical fish, 2 boxes of styrofoam, and we are in the process of checking with the CDC and United States Fish and Wildlife Service regarding entry requirements for tropical fish.
I will take an Uber to pick up the package and bring it back.

Safe neighborhoods around Berkeley

I will be staying at UC Berkeley for a year and am looking for a place to live alone.
I'm thinking of not only the Berkeley area, but also commuting by BART, so I'm considering places around El Cerrito del Norte, Lafayette, Walnut Creek, etc.
I'd love to know which areas are safe and recommended.I would appreciate it if you could tell me which areas are safe and which you would recommend. If you know of any unsafe streets, please let us know. This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation.

College Avenue near Campus is popular among students with many apartments.
The area along College Ave. to Rockridge is relatively safe.
Rockridge is a popular area with many restaurants. The address is Oakland, though.
Basically, the closer you are to Oakland and Richmond, the more careful you should be.
Roughly speaking, South Berkeley is the area following Oakland, and North Berkeley (Berkeley Hills) is a safe residential area.
UC Berkeley is positioned as Central Berkeley.
The area near San Pablo Boulevard, especially on its west side, is not recommended.
Telegraph is the main street from Central Berkeley to Oakland.
Orinda, Lafayette, and Walnut Creek are safe, upscale neighborhoods, but may be inconvenient to get to BART without a car.
If you are thinking of the El Cerrito side, the El Cerrito Plaza station is safer and more convenient.
In that case, Albany is also safe and a popular area for Japanese.
El Cerrito Del Norte is relatively safe on the El Cerrito Hills side, but you should keep in mind that it is next to Richmond.
However, I think the rent is cheaper because of that.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Thank you for the details !
Since I don't know if I can buy a car right away, I will try to look in the Berkeley area up to around Rockridge and around North Berkeley, Albany and El Cerrito Plaza. I will also try to avoid the west side of San Pablo.

I have to go to the Japanese Embassy in SF to pick up my passport during the day this weekday. I'm looking for parking near the Japanese Embassy and there are a lot of options, do you have any recommendations ? I would appreciate any information you could give me. I am a little depressed because I am coming from the South Bay.
