Arc questions/visa run

I presently have an ARC.
It expires April 28th and I have not found a new job yet to renew it.
Hopefully I will find another job in time and this will alleviate this troubling situation…but if not…
Here is the problem…

If I don’t find a job in time,what do I do…
A visa run for another visa…30 or 60 day or even try for a mutiple entry?
Where is the best place to go?HONG KONG IS NOT AN OPTION…
I have heard Osaka is good with decent people working in the visa offices there…
I have been here for 2 years on visitor and student visas and am wondering how the visa office will respond to this info…

Another problem…the reason my ARC expires soon…
An emergency came up and it was requiring me to leave the country for a few months,and after giving my 2 month notice to my ARC school they let me know my ARC would expire April 28th,2005.
As well,my ARC was only 2 months old and was instated as of January 2005.
NOW,I no longer have to leave the country as I have dealt with the emergency,but my ARC will still expire and the school said there is nothing they can do to stop the process-(perhaps they just don’t want to)
They will still employ me on a part-time basis but with no ARC.

Please let me know what is required if my ARC should expire…

Detailed info is required and appreciated…Thank you

I was in Osaka a while ago, and they gave me only a 30-day visa with no extensions stamped on it - unnecessarily harsh. Okinawa was good while I was there.

this issue has been resolved…thanks

will you then care to share the process of resolution?
