Slope Construction Work Begins for Technical Intern Trainees | Examples of Hiring Foreign Workers

Hello, everyone

This is Enta.

Technical Intern: Slope Worker

This is the first time the technical interns have worked on a slope.

For now, let's do a slope training session? (I probably don't understand it yet.) This is my first time dealing with a slope.

It’s faster to teach them on the job than in a classroom. And they pick it up quickly, too.

In a training session, I can't understand the text in the manual or the language used at all.

It just means I did it. (I feel like I'll get in trouble for writing it this way, though.)

Teaching hands-on and showing students the textbook helps them gain a deeper understanding.

 

The most important thing is not to fall. How can we make sure we don't fall?

What should you do in situations like this on a slope?

And so on—this kind of hands-on experience is really effective for foreign technical interns who aren't yet fluent in the language.

Technical Interns: First Time on a Slope

Eventually, we plan to have them learn how to tie a clove hitch and a bowline knot, among others.

Since you’ve come all the way from Vietnam, I hope you’ll soak up as much as you can before heading back.

 

Currently, they are at zero.

If you teach them the ropes and provide thorough training, they’re sure to become skilled craftsmen in three years!

They might leave, but that’s just the way it is.

Even so, I can't just teach it half-heartedly.

People often ask me, “You’re going to come back in three years, right?”

That's right. Those are the rules for now.

But, to put it another way, I'll definitely be here for three years. (Even if I run away, lol.)

I believe that if we approach this with sincerity, they’ll respond in kind! (At least for now, lol)

I have really high hopes for their growth!

 

Regarding what I mentioned the other day about Poketalk, a problem has come to light.

I understand that dialects are a no-go, but other than that, I can't translate technical terms or words that aren't commonly used!

I mean, that goes without saying, though... lol

When I say, “Drive the anchor into a spot where the anchor pin will hold,”

Apparently, the saying goes, “Drive the anchor where the anchor pin points,” and they’re just like ( ゚д゚) totally dumbfounded lol

When you say something like this, it’s a good idea to categorize them as “places to set anchors” or “areas that seem solid.”

 

In Japanese, the meaning can change depending on the phrasing or the way something is said.

Japanese is really hard, lol! People who use Poketalk really need to make an effort to get their point across, lol.

It's hard to know how to choose the right words, isn't it?

 

See you later.

    We’ll be welcoming trainees from Vietnam starting in April, so this is helpful information for us.
