Traveling on a J1 visa for people in their 30s

I am a man in my early 30s currently working in Japan.
I have always wanted to work in the U.S. and am considering taking a trainee job on a J1 visa to gain experience.

This program is called the American version of the work-holiday, but what is it really like?
Actually, I had planned to travel to the U.S. in the past but had to give it up because of corona. Since I am in my 30s, I wonder if it would be worth it to go if I could gain some experience, but I am wondering if it would be too subtle as I am a trainee and would not be appreciated much upon my return.

Agents have a strong business component, so they give good advice, but what is the actual situation?
By the way, my current job is IT-related, but it is not a technical job like a programmer.

If any of you have experience with this, I would like to know more about it. Best regards.

I would like to put a uv cut film on my
window glass because of the strong sunlight coming in through the window.
I live in an apartment and the windows are large, but
is it OK if I apply it personally ?
Also, since the windows are a bit large, it is difficult to apply it by myself, so I would like to ask a contractor if I can, but I would like to know who has done it in the past and who you would recommend. I would like to know who has done it in the past and who they recommend.
Also, do you think it will peel off cleanly when I leave the apartment ??

Please tell me. I have a dog. My current pet clinic has a nice staff, but I don't trust them very much. They make mistakes on my bill, don't present me with the information I need, and don't really know what I'm asking.
Do you have any recommendations for a reliable pet clinic somewhere ?
From Kahala area to Kakaako area would be helpful.
It would be best if you have someone who can speak Japanese, but even if you don't, please let me know if you know of any great places ! ! to go.
Thank you very much.

How to choose a used car ?

I bought a 10 year old used car last year and it broke down right away and I was out of $5000.

I think it is better to buy a newer car, but how old do you think it should be ?

Also, what make of car is better ?

The color must be white or black, thinking about selling it next.

I work in the tour industry. Compared to people from other countries, Japanese people tip extremely little. Perhaps it is because you don't know, but I have lived in the U.S. for a long time and sometimes I don't like the fact that Japanese people don't have a good reputation. I will write this in reference to the tips I myself pay in Hawaii or when I go abroad. By the way, I am not particularly rich and have a normal income & When I act with my foreign friends, the other party is also like this.

restaurant ( sit down meal ) = 20%, at least 15% if service is slow or something
pick up of hoardings or drinks at a take-out store = $ 0 to lowest option ( 10, 1 5% or $1, etc., depending on terminal )
Valet car rental, etc. at hotel ( Tipping staff for valet services = $5 to
Tipping tour guides and others who have helped you = $10 or more, $20 or more for group participation. More if there is a high level of satisfaction or if the service is above normal expectations.

I understand very much that the yen is weak, but I am very disappointed when I see people tipping less than $5 on tours. If you would like to know more, please let me know...

I have completed my OPT and received my nursing license. So even if I find a job, I cannot work immediately because I do not have a work permit. I expect it will probably take at least 6 months for it to take effect. For this reason, I am considering transferring to another language school to maintain my visa until I find a job, but as an alternative plan, I am wondering if I can return to Japan once I find a job and stay in Japan until my work permit is issued. Is this plan really difficult?

I would like to know ? what is the communication situation in Japan today other than phones.

Email
Line
Face time = IPhone only
Google What about Androd ?
Skype

There are probably other ways, but the average person uses the most ?

I think there is a way to use a very cheap sim card in Japan,
please tell me how to use that number in the US ? and so on.
