Letter of Death

Check out the recent e-mail Nova sent me:

Dear Vincent,

I hope this email finds you well and that you are excited about your upcoming departure to Japan!

We know you are eager to find out your accommodation information and location assignment. Due to the large number of new teachers arriving in September, our head office notified us that they are still finalizing arrival plans and that the information will be slightly delayed. We expect to receive the information very soon and forward it to you, as soon as possible. We will contact you by telephone when we send out the information. Your arrival and accommodation information will be sent by email as a pdf attachment.

We sincerely apologize for the delays and we look forward to speaking with you very soon.


Kind Regards,

Lindsay Tateishi
The Nova Recruiting Office
Nova Group Japan


Should I be worried? A little over a week left and I still don't know my roomates, my address, and if anyone is REALLY going to pick me up at Kansai Aiport next Wednesday. Things must be going haywire for this company. Time to do some heavy research on other eikawa schools... Ack!

I'm sure you'll be fine.

Whatever you do, do not go and work for Nova. They are in the process of imploding. Schools are closing, staff haven't been paid and Nova have huge financial problems. I mean Huge. It's a nightmare.

Tito, I certainly hope you are right.

BJ, I certainly hope you're wrong. Though I miss you too. How's work, school, girls, life, and shit? Drop me a line dude.

Anonymous, tell me something I don't know.

Hopefully Nova can survive until December when the METI ban is lifted and they can sign new students. The stock's been incredibly volatile the past few days, hitting back to 80 Yen but now sits at 49.

I remain cautiously optimistic.
