- I recently changed jobs and my new role requires me to interact with Japanese people on a daily basis, as well as visiting Japan a few times a year.
The first time I visited, I knew no Japanese whatsoever and I felt fairly useless as well as rude. So, I decided I needed to learn some Japanese to help me get around and to ingratiate me with the people I meet. I recently returned to Japan for a business trip and I was much better able to communicate with everyone I met, and my contacts greatly appreciated my efforts to speak their language!
