I have a question for those who have had orthodontic treatment in Hawaii. I would like to get braces, but I feel that the price at the first dentist I went to was a little higher than I expected. I would appreciate it if you could tell me how much it cost and which dentist you used.

Plans to enter the U.S. via non-rev, travel to Germany via Chicago

Hello.
I am not married, but due to his work, I will be entering the US as a non-rev. The last time I stayed for a month and a half, I was sent to a separate room for 2 hours at immigration.
I heard that the examiner can see the seating order and whether you are non-rev or not, so that's why he put me in a different room.
(I didn't tell them he was there. )
Next time I am going to Germany with him as a non-rev, will it be ok ?
because it would not be funny if I am rejected to enter the US ….
If you know anything about non-rev and Japanese nationals only, please let me know.
Thank you very much.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)

I would like to put a uv cut film on my
window glass because of the strong sunlight coming in through the window.
I live in an apartment and the windows are large, but
is it OK if I apply it personally ?
Also, since the windows are a bit large, it is difficult to apply it by myself, so I would like to ask a contractor if I can, but I would like to know who has done it in the past and who you would recommend. I would like to know who has done it in the past and who they recommend.
Also, do you think it will peel off cleanly when I leave the apartment ??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)

Reliable pet clinic

Please tell me.
I have a dog. My current pet clinic has a nice staff, but I don't trust them very much. They make mistakes on my bill, don't present me with the information I need, and don't really know what I'm asking.
Do you have any recommendations for a reliable pet clinic somewhere ?
From Kahala area to Kakaako area would be helpful.
It would be best if you have someone who can speak Japanese, but even if you don't, please let me know if you know of any great places ! ! to go.

I bought a 10 year old used car last year and it broke down right away and I was out of $5000.
I think it is better to buy a newer car, but how old do you think it should be ?
Also, what make of car is better ?
The color must be white or black, thinking about selling it next.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)

Tipping on Tours

I work in the tour industry.
Compared to people from other countries, Japanese people tip extremely little. Perhaps it is because you don't know, but I have lived in the U.S. for a long time and sometimes I don't like the fact that Japanese people don't have a good reputation. I will write this in reference to the tips I myself pay in Hawaii or when I go abroad. By the way, I am not particularly rich and have a normal income & When I act with my foreign friends, the other party is also like this.
restaurant ( sit down meal ) = 20%, at least 15% if service is slow or something
pick up of hoardings or drinks at a take-out store = $ 0 to lowest option ( 10, 1 5% or $1, etc., depending on terminal )
Valet car rental, etc. at hotel ( Tipping staff for valet services = $5 to
Tipping tour guides and others who have helped you = $10 or more, $20 or more for group participation. More if there is a high level of satisfaction or if the service is above normal expectations.
I understand very much that the yen is weak, but I am very disappointed when I see people tipping less than $5 on tours.If you would like to know more, please let me know...

If you get a better position in the travel business, you don't have to count on tips.

As a fellow Japanese, I am really embarrassed.
The other day, a server was chasing a Japanese man coming out of one of the restaurants and telling him that he didn't have a tip. The one who was probably his father told his family in Japanese that he did not want to pay for the meal because it was too expensive.
I always wish they would play a video or something on the plane on the way there to explain.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)

When I used to work in the wedding industry, I was an attendant, but I had a parent who gave $ 1 as a tip to the hair and makeup artist.
This was for accompanying the couple from the preparation at the hotel, to the make-over right before the wedding, and then to the photo shoot at the park. I was surprised.
I felt really sorry for the make-up artist and told my parents, but she said, "It's just a gratuity ? We paid a lot of money, so we will decide how much it costs.
The make-up artist laughed at me.
I was also asked to have a cup of coffee, $ which I did.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)

I understand ! Japanese tourists have no concept of tipping, and I worry if they are embarrassed in the US.
Foreigners always order one plate per person and leave a tip of 18-25%, but Japanese people, even if they come with 4 people, order 2 plates to share and ask for a plate and a photo, and even if I respond pleasantly, they just leave a coin with a clink. Even if we responded pleasantly, they would just leave the coins with a clink.
Toilet ? Check ! It is a little embarrassing to use Japanese and not be aware that you are in a foreign country.
The world will make fun of you. I think it would be better to inform tour companies thoroughly at the time of application.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)

I began to feel that tips are gratuitous or encouraging only after working on the receiving end of them.
I also began to feel that it is a lubricant that keeps society running, and when I give it out, I feel a sense of "thank you".
In this respect, I think that since there is no tipping culture in Japan, there is no sense of both giving and receiving tips, and
the decision is based on numbers only.
I have also heard that major Japanese agencies ask you not to announce the tip at the end of the tour.
Maybe it is because they announce to Japanese tourists that tipping is included in the tour price, but
it seems a bit like they are imposing their own culture.
On the other hand, I have read articles that the entire US is getting tired of tipping because of Corona.
I think the conversation about how much is a proper tip ? will continue in the future.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)

About Work Visas

I have completed my OPT and received my nursing license. So even if I find a job, I cannot work immediately because I do not have a work permit. I expect it will probably take at least 6 months for it to take effect. For this reason, I am considering transferring to another language school to maintain my visa until I find a job, but as an alternative plan, I am wondering if I can return to Japan once I find a job and stay in Japan until my work permit is issued. Is this plan really difficult?

I got some coffee beans, do you know where I can grind them ? I've seen them at Costco, but I can't use them unless I buy the beans there ? I'll probably only use them this once, so I'm not sure if I should bother buying meal.
