So an English example sentence of differentiation might help people to see exactly what you want to say.
Sorry if it's not clear
What I want to say is "My job is (located) in Japan." I'm trying to describe the location of the job itself, not the fact that I work at said job. This is different from "I work in Japan."

Another example could be, "My apartment is in Japan." This is different from "I live in Japan," because I'm describing the location of my apartment, not the fact that I live there.


I'm not a cynic; I just like to play Devil's Advocate once in a while.
