Regardless of the money you are going to be burnt out doing this in J on a regular basis and completely ****ed in Y as LH have 'nekked' the seats.
It's a ticket to divorce, flying east is easy, flying west is the killer - your family will not like you. After 2 weeks in JPN you will have adjusted to the time zone, so factor 5-7 days of jet-lag every 4 weeks with your young family.Comment

I got offered a role at £1250 (£29k a month I think) a day about three years ago, only a six-weeker though. Trouble is it was in Cairo, and when I asked about sorting the work permit (I checked, Brits needed one) they said just come and work on a visit visa. So I even though I might have got away it, I said no.
Plus the whole thing sounded weird, the guy who interviewed me on the phone was Somali, and never really interviewed me, just waffled about crap.
Just checked my emails - it was with EMC so maybe I should have taken it!Comment

Happy to.
Considering taking young family for a 6-month jolly instead of flying backwards and forth. When else will something like this come up..."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
