My Short Introduction and Working Experience in Japanese Firm

Have a blessed day to all in the steemit community especially in Steem Japan Community. Today I want first to introduce myself to the community. I'm @liamnov from the Philippines. I working for about 22 years in one Japanese manufacturing firm here in Mactan Economic Zone in Lapu Lapu City Cebu Philippines.

The company where I work was own by a Japanese who is now presently residing in Japan. The company was managed by a Filipino Japanese Manager. He give a good relationship with his employees. Sometimes he will play Volleyball together with some employees at the company ground of the factory.

I was assigned as Quality Controller in the company where I check the finished garments product before it was shipped to Japan. We make sure that we meet the quality standards of the garments as specified by the buyers. Mostly I was checking samples for approval in order we get orders from buyers. I was also checking the production output sample for buyers' approval before it was shipped to our respective buyer. I meet my Japanese mentor and sometimes we go out together and spending time in some places in Philippines

Before the pandemic, the company gets many orders from our Japanese buyers. We always rendered overtime to meet the deadline or the shipment date of the delivery of the finished product. But now we are affected by the pandemic. We have only a few orders, sometimes we don't have work because of the delay of material from Japan. We know that it hard to ship material from other countries, because of the strict protocol of our government here in the Philippines and some flights are lessen because of the pandemic. But still, we need to accept the reality of what happened because of Covid 19. We need to survive.

Now I still hope that we will back to normal life. But I ask myself " When? ". We don't know the specific time where Covid disappear in the world. Sometimes I ask myself if I can survive in our situation now. I know our income is not enough to support our needs and also our family needs. That why I'm very thankful for @steemit because it can help us financially. Also, it helps us to strengthen our knowledge about many things in life.
