I had a scary experience right after waking up.
I was sleeping soundly when I was suddenly hit on the head and woke up at a good time. Since I live alone, I hadn't expected to be woken up like that, so I opened my eyes wondering what was going on, only to find a head lying right next to me as if it were sleeping beside me. I was doubly surprised, and realizing this wasn't good, I jumped up.

When I first joined the company, I didn't know what to do, so I kept asking everyone around me for help. One of them told me, 'Could you please not talk to me while I'm working?' which scared me, but I didn't know what to do, so I continued looking for work, and I've come to appreciate that 𓆟's good point is that they offer suggestions one step ahead.

The incident began with a post on X (formerly Twitter) confirmed on March 8th. An account suspected of having ties to the Russian government posted information in English to the effect that 'major Japanese oil companies have resumed importing oil from Russia.' Of course, since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Japan has, in principle, suspended imports of Russian crude oil. The companies mentioned in the post have all denied its contents.
