Street Presence At Smith’s Kotoen スミス英会話 甲東園

Hello everyone!

I wanted to point out the good kharma that comes from getting known in the local community where you have your Smith’s School of English franchise スミス英会話.  At the Smith’s School of English in Kotoen スミス英会話 甲東園, there is a Family Mart convenience store on the corner at the main street, Nakatsuhamasen.  The peculiar habit of this store is allowing local produce vendors to set up a temporary food stall at the corner of the parking lot right alongside the sidewalk.  Those stalls are set up right next to my Smith’s tank and flag on the corner.

Every few weeks in the spring and summer the town officials send out hedge cutters to trim the hedges along the street, and in a good effort to avoid damaging my flag, the workers neatly moved the tank out onto the sidewalk, well away from their saws.  This was a pleasantly unexpected gesture.

However, when the workmen left, they accidently left my tank and flag standing out in the middle of the sidewalk.  What happened next is the real surprise …… one of the part-time workers from the food stall went over and put the tank and flag back into the correct position, properly visible and also out of the way of pedestrians.  This was much appreciated and I didn’t even have to lift a finger myself.

The school’s long-term establishment in the area is the main reason for this good fortune.
