๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต Frequently Used Expressions and Kanji Analysis in Japanese Part-Time Jobs

This list is based on my experience as an exchange student working part-time in Japan. It includes commonly used expressions in customer service and daily work communication. I’ve also analyzed the related kanji and vocabulary to help learners better understand and memorize them. I hope this will be helpful for anyone aiming to improve their practical Japanese skills.
