First Job in Japan
On Sunday I volunteered to work overtime(it was my first shift, but overtime since it was on my day off) at a kids party thrown by my company. It was a halloween party, and the only monster they were lacking was a mummy, so I was charged with cutting up lots of futon covers and wrapping myself.
The party was at a "petting zoo", but there wasonly one horse, a few cats, and a bunch of dogs(come to think of it, I remember seeing a rooster somewhere). The men's bathroom contained pictures of dogs from the park crapping on the ground - go figure. I think the owner was obsessed with dogs, as the pictures(not all of pooping dogs) were everywhere. In fact, the dogs were everywhere. We went to rehearse in the "music space", and the owner came in with a bunch of dogs.
The performance went fine( did a couple of songs including the "hokey pokey"), but I then had to go to a station at the zoo where kids were required to answer the question "do you like cats" in english to get a little stamp on a card. As I was walking down, kids discovered a loose strand on my mummy costume and started trying to tear it off. After being mauled by the 20 or 30 kids deciding to take part, I sat on my knees for two hours and asked about 500-1000 kids "do you like cats?" And that was my first job in japan.
