I don't think there are any municipal construction projects that use the Construction Career Advancement System!

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Hey, everyone! Are you using the Career Advancement System? We’ve been subscribed for a few years now, but we’ve never used it even once, lol. We work as first- and second-tier subcontractors for the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and other municipalities, but we’ve never used it at all. &n…

The Battle Within
2025/04/13

I thought about the importance of one’s environment as seen through crime rates, and who I’m up against every day!

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Do you know how many technical interns and foreign workers are currently working in Japan? I did a quick search on the Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare’s website. The total number is 2,300,000. Nationality/Region | Number of Foreign Workers (people) | Percentage (%)…

I don't think there are any work uniforms specifically designed for construction management—what do you think?

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. What kind of work clothes do construction supervisors want? Generally speaking, work clothes for tradespeople tend to look cooler, right? Even at big companies, there’s a range—from the cool ones to the ones that make you go, “Ugh, so lame!” lol (Not really…

Going on an Overseas Business Trip as a Slope Engineer: Part 19

Hey everyone! It’s Enta here. It’s been a while since I posted Part 18, lol. I figured if I didn’t write this while it was still fresh in my mind, I’d forget it or lose my enthusiasm, so I went ahead and wrote Part 19, lol. In this post, I’m going to talk about why, even though the design is Japanese, the construction isn’t done in Japan…

What can we do to meet the scheduled completion date?

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. What can we do to meet the construction deadline? While it depends on the situation at the job site, I’d like to consider what basic steps we can take. First and foremost, in the original construction plan, what…

Motivation Switch
2025/04/08

With a calm mind, working silently, solemnly, and matter-of-factly

Hello, everyone. It’s Enta. There are times when you just can’t get motivated or stick with something, right? It happens to me all the time! lol Especially after being sick—I feel so sluggish, everything seems like a hassle, and I just feel so down! lol But there’s a way to boost your motivation and…

Application for a Construction Business License
2025/04/02

We have renewed our construction business license to a ministerial license!

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. We’ve just renewed our construction business license. We’ve been preparing for this since around October, and finally completed the registration at the end of February lol. The reason for the delay was our sales office. Or rather, as I think I mentioned before, we opened a sales office in Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture last year…

Organization for Foreign Technical Intern Training
2025/04/01

Following the incident involving the Technical Intern Training Organization, an audit was conducted on the Foreign Technical Intern Training Organization.

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Well, the end of the fiscal year is behind us, and April 2025 (the new fiscal year) has begun! How’s your year off to a start? We’ve got quite a few projects carried over from last year, so we’re managing to get by. That said, we’re still swamped with work and short-staffed. I’m really grateful…

Sexual Harassment

Here's the Ranking of the Worst Cases of Sexual Harassment!

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The other day, I went out for drinks with a friend in Nagoya’s Nishiki district (Nagoya’s entertainment district). After we finished eating, we usually head to a bar with hostesses, and during our conversation there, we talked about what kinds of things customers do that really annoy or irritate the hostesses…
