Kitamura Takuya san 04 Apr 2008
I lost contact with Kitamura Kyodai shortly after I returned from my mission. He was living in Nara at the time of his baptism (Sept 81) and was baptized while I was serving near the Saiin eki in Kyoto. If anyone knows of his whereabouts, or has info as to how his life is going, I would love to hear about it. I have thought about him many times over the past 25 years.

Japanese job openings at NetApp 16 Apr 2007
Hello all-
Just wanted to send a quick message in case anyone was still speaking Japanese and has some experience doing technical support or storage administration work.

NetApp is looking for a number of Japanese speaking (and reading and writing) technical support engineers to be based in our support center here in Raleigh, North Carolina. Our job description says "fluent", but we are looking for someone who has strong enough Japanese to work with customers on technical issues, and strong enough technical skills to learn our products and help support customers in English and Japanese (just to clarify, this is not a 100% Japanese support job). I am not in HR or anything- just a guy that enjoys working at NetApp, who happens to also speak some Japanese, so I've been asked to help with our search. I have been with NetApp for about one and a half years, and the company is continuing to steadily grow, especially here in RTP, where we have our 24x7 global support center, along with various engineering, quality assurance, and other departments.

NetApp has received a couple of great honors over the past year:
- #6 in the Fortune Magazines 100 Best Places to Work survey (http://www.netapp.com/news/press/news_rel_20070108)
- #1 large company in the Triangle Business Journal's Best Places to Work rankings (http://www.netapp.com/news/press/news_rel_20060926)

A full job description is shown below. If you are at all interested, or just want some additional information, please feel free to send me an e-mail with an English resume attached, and I'll make sure it gets submitted directly to the hiring managers for these positions.

宜しくお願いいたします。

Looking for an Old Friend 23 Oct 2006
If anyone knows anything regarding Yamamoto Nachiko Shimai please let me know. She was baptized in the Takatsuki branch or Ibaragi ward in 1979. She was like a second mother to me during my mission and I regret losing contact with her shortly after returning home in 1981.
