Other than having a parking lot, no.
The owner’s wife scheduled an interview but did not inform me that she would be delayed by another matter that day. When I arrived, I called her and only then did she tell me that the interview had been changed to one conducted by the owner himself. I then waited idly for nearly 45 minutes in a seat behind the counter. When the owner arrived for the interview, he was arrogant and spoke in a very impolite and impatient manner. I applied for the “Wedding Planner” position, but the owner told me that “the position had already been filled” and even mocked me, saying I shouldn’t let myself be constrained by that position. Aside from finding this completely baffling, I was told that the staff he needed would have to (although he never clarified what position was actually available) help at his newly opened seafood restaurant (丸勝水產) with cashiering, front-of-house duties, and various miscellaneous tasks involved in opening the business, while still being responsible for the duties normally expected of a wedding planner. It was a very confusing position—it seemed like they wanted an all-purpose odd-job worker while only offering basic pay.
I subsequently came up with an excuse to end the interview. I really felt that my time had been wasted.
