What do you do when you are away from home for a long period of time due to a return or business trip? ？ Houses need to be ventilated, cleaned, and maintained from time to time. It seems that it is not good to leave your car unattended too much. Please let us know if you know of any useful services for such situations.

I used the management services of a real estate company. As you can imagine, it is difficult to clean up, but it gives me peace of mind.

It is not ventilation or cleaning, but it is recommended to have a security alarm.

I would like to make a purchase on behalf of the store.

I am looking for someone to purchase a vintage fan from an antique store in Dallas and ship it to Japan on my behalf.
I asked the store to ship the fan to Japan, but they said they could not do so.
I really want to buy this fan, so I am waiting to hear from someone who can handle it.

We are thinking of paying around $ 100 for the person who responds.
The size of the fan would be about 58" tall and 30lb in weight.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Takeout Tipping Rates

How much do you tip when you get takeout ？
Some people say it's not necessary, but in some places it's already included.

When you go to pick up a pizza or something that is essentially a delivery place, I feel like you should tip less because it's not delivery, what do you do ？?

Is there anything different from Japan in terms of house maintenance ？?

I heard that they don't eat raw eggs in America.
Don't they eat rice with eggs?
I have also heard that pasteurized eggs are fine, but what is the actual situation?
Please let me know if you know anything about this.

I have an irresistible craving for egg rice.
And I am afraid of eggs here, so I don't eat them raw either.

Mitsuwa sells pasteurized raw eggs, so we use them for TKG, sukiyaki, etc. ♩
I heard that the English word is "pasteurized egg", but I couldn't find it in other supermarkets.

I've never had a stomach ache from the raw eggs sold at Mitsuwa, so they are safe.
I believe they were about $4, so they are a bit pricey, but I recommend them as a small luxury.

I eat raw eggs.
But it depends on the egg.
In the suburbs of LA, there are famous eggs with Japanese names on them that are sold for $6 a pack.
They are not sold in supermarkets. They are not sold in supermarkets, and they can only be bought twice a month on a subscription basis.
I also buy them from a friend who is a chicken farmer.

I just moved to TX and bought a local chicken egg at Mitsuwa the other day. It wasn't pasteurized but I think it was ＄ 5+. I ate it raw, but at my own risk.
I do eat them but at my own risk.

I have lived in the US for 45 years and I eat raw eggs often. I eat them almost every day.
I once watched a TV program about eggs on Gatten, and they explained that the bacteria in eggs are very unlikely to be bacteria.

新型コロナウイルス追加経済支援策が採決

まだ定かではないですが、ニュースで新たなコロナの追加支援が採決されたという記事をみたので、私の理解した範囲だけでも共有できればと思い、投稿しました。間違っているかもなのでその点ご理解ください。また、採決されたけれどもまだトランプ大統領が署名していないのと内容は変更になる可能性があるみたいなので、その点もご注意ください

・追加のStimulus Checkの給付（前回より額が減って大人1人$600.00みたいです。）
・追加の失業保険上乗せ（こちも前回より額が減って週$300.00の上乗せみたいです。）
・追加のPaycheck Protection Program（PPP）（詳細以下に書きます。）
・その他、家賃が支払えない人の立ち退きの延長や家賃援助も組み込まれてるみたいです。

追加のPaycheck Protection Program（PPP）については、1回目のPPPを申請できなかった企業や1回目にPPPを受取って使い果たし、さらなるPPPが必要な企業などが申請できるようです。基本的なルールや返済免除のルールは1回目のPPPと変わらないようですが、一部ホテル業などのホスピタリティ業については申請できる額が増えたり、一部変わっているところもありそうです。また、2度目の申請ができる条件として、従業員が300人以下でかつ売上が前年比25%以上減っている企業に限定されてるみたいです。

その他、EIDL Grantで1万ドルを受取りかつPPPローンも受け取った企業はもともとのルールだと1万ドルをPPPの返済免除手続きの際に返済しないといけなかったですが、どうもこのルールも変更になるみたいです。

あとはPPPローンを使い支払った経費をTax Returnの際に経費として計上できるようになったということも書いてありました。

恐らく来年1月頭には最終的なルールが決定されて、SBAのサイトなどでも情報が公開されると思いますが、先着順は変わらないと思うので、PPPローンが必要な方、ぜひ早めに準備してください。あとはCPAや弁護士の方が詳しい情報を持っていると思うので、正確な情報は各自ご確認ください。
