Private School in Hawaii

I recently saw a post about preschool and was surprised to learn that many of you are considering private schooling after Kinder.
I am amazed at the high tuition fees for a well-known private school ($ 20,000 ~ /year) and feel that it is not easy even if you are working together.
What are your reasons ( for wanting a private school even with such high tuition ) and why do you prefer to avoid papric schools ?
and is your family working together ?
? We have a preschooler who is still at a pre-school age, but I would like to hear from both private and public people for future reference.

?
I feel that the tip in restaurants goes up and down based on 20%
Starbucks is $1-$3
for talking and teaching me
but nowadays I feel uncomfortable when I have to choose between 15% and 25% for a single rice ball. I feel uncomfortable when I have to make a choice.
I'm not saying it should be up to the vending machine, but should I be tipped even if I just click without saying a word
or not ?
I think it's unnecessary, but I'd be happy to hear your thoughts on this!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)

Japan Rail Pass voucher

From what I saw, I thought IACE Travel was the cheapest, but the website seems to suggest buying online. But I would like to buy in person at the office to confirm some things, but I don't know the number of the office. One of the numbers on the web says that this service is no longer available, and the other one gives me guidance and says to call there if I want to speak to a representative directly.
Is it possible to go directly to the office and make a purchase ?
or do you have a travel agent you would recommend?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)

Nice to meet you.
I used to be in Hawaii as a J1 and
currently live in Japan.
I came to the US as a J1 in retail and worked in sales.
I am currently working in an office and am familiar with all aspects of PC work.
I cannot forget my life in Hawaii and
I would like to work and live in Hawaii.
I am looking for a company that can support my
E VISA because I want to work long term on my next trip.
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)

There are times when property taxes double for homeowners ?.

It's a bit long.
●My sister and her husband live in a house in my mother's name ( Hawaii ) and claim they paid their own property taxes every month
●For some reason, payment letters come to Japan where my mother lives through 2021 ~ 2022.
●I send one of about 3 letters back from the sender ( maybe the IRS ) I'll return it. ( Maybe last year )
●Yesterday, my sister sent me a bill for double the amount of taxes I had paid, and she blames me for something I said, but I honestly don't remember
I tell her I think they probably just sent it to Hawaii.
●My friend who lives in a detached house says that she has never heard of taxes going up whether the parents or the children live there
●My sister talked to a lawyer and he said that the taxes will go up unless my mother lives there because it is in her name. She blames me like who told her that.
●I think it's not reasonable to be angry because my mother doesn't actually live there because she was found out ? I should rather consider myself lucky to have paid less until now. ( This is not as straightforward as it sounds. )
The point is that he has been filing false tax returns and is worried about whether this could be construed as tax evasion.
●My sister is upset that we are family and she treats people like crimes ?.
●I was just stating the main points of my concern, but it's better for a layman not to say easy things. Please settle the matter with a lawyer. When I told him that I had nothing to do with it and that I had nothing to blame him for, he turned the tables on me.
The exchange on that line is below
09:44 A What did you write when you sent the tax paper back to the city and county in Hawaii, sister ?
09:45 A Our taxes are about to double to $6548. The price went up
09:46 A I asked the office and they said it was because I got a letter from Japan saying my mom doesn't live here
09:46 A They said it was a third party price because she doesn't live here.
09:47 A I can't pay this amount of money ?
13:10 Y sorry. I'm at a conference.
13:11 Y I don't remember anymore. But I think it only said to send it to the Hawaii address.
13:13 Y I don't think I wrote anything about your mother not living in Hawaii or any such details. I think I wrote "please send to Hawaii.
14:03 A Got it. I'll ask the tax office for details. It's kind of weird that it suddenly doubled 🙂
14:03 A It's so expensive, it's ridiculous.
16:33 YYou know, I just talked to HI, and he said he doesn't think the taxes will double because of who lives there. Because there are many people like that in the world.
I was told to ask my accountant for more information, but my friend ( who has a property in Hawaii and lives there now ) told me ? that asking an accountant might not be enough. Maki-san said he will ask his friend.
16:33 Y I've never heard of taxes going up because people don't live there. Also, it's strange that I suddenly got a form to come to Japan for a few months. Anyway, I will let you know when I hear from my friend.
16:34 A I already talked to Mr. Hi. I'm talking to my lawyer now. It seems that taxes are different depending on who owns and lives in the house.
16:35 Y Let me know if you find out what the lawyer said.
16:35 A It's okay. We'll do it ourselves.
16:35 YOK
16:36 A I asked my lawyer and he said. The amount of taxes will change
16:37 Ay if we find out that mom doesn't live there
16:37 Y There is no proof that she doesn't live there, so if we say she comes and goes ?
16:37 A They already know something
16:37 Y If you checked legal immigration,
16:38 Y you would know, but other than that, you have no evidence.
16:38 A You don't look into one individual, so if they would know, someone would have said ?
16:40 A I would talk to a lawyer about what to do.
16:42 Y Just because someone said it doesn't prove it. But the fact is that they are lying, so you have to ask your lawyer to handle that. I hope the lawyer is a good one.
16:42 A It's not a lie. If it was a family member, they wouldn't think so. ?
16:43 A It's not like you're committing a crime.
16:45 A She said there's no way we're committing a crime for what we've done. We've paid for it, so what do you think
objectively about your mom's belongings ?
I think what my sister is saying is wrong.
In reality, the fact is that my mother does not live in that building, and I think she deserves it because she found out about it. I wonder if the taxes really double for those who live in Hawaii ?.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation.

As the title says, I am writing to find out the monthly membership fee for Anytime in Waikiki.
I heard that Hawaii is a popular place to work out, and besides Anytime, there are gyms used by Army and UFC
gyms for mixed martial arts.
Please let me know about their admission fees, monthly membership fees, reputation, and if you are actually a member.
Of course, you can tell me about other gyms than the above.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 am planning to go to Japan and have enough yen and dollars, but which is more economical, using the yen I have or exchanging dollars for yen ?
I think it is better to use dollars because of the weak yen, but there are fees involved.
If it is better to exchange money, I would also like to know the recommended exchange offices.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)

Recruiting at a higher hourly rate and actually paying less

- 2023/05/04 10:38
In my recent job search, I see a lot of postings for hourly wages $ 17 to 20, etc.
In fact, when I go to interviews, the hourly rate is $ 11 or 12, and including Tip, it is usually $ 17 to more.
and so on, when you go to the interview.
but when you actually work there, the hourly rate is $ 15 or so including tips.
Is this different from what is stated in the job description? ?
Is there a problem if a higher hourly wage is indicated with tips, and the actual wage is lower than that? ?
Is there any problem like this in the restaurant industry where you work ??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)
