That sounds great and all, it's just weird that everyone else that I've ever heard talk about working in Japan mentions the low job satisfaction, the hidden unspoken rules, the sexism, the unpaid long overtime hours, the "death from overwork" concept, and the difficulty of finding a job especially as a foreigner.

[@MartinHerchel]

I'd say there problems with the USA's systems too like: struggling to find work, mass lay-offs. So I think her idea applies: "We need to find a way.", because both systems are flawed and could likely be improved by learning from each other; finding the right balance for them and (ideally) for everyone.

[@DrJustininJapan]

@@MartinHerchel Yes, interestingly enough, being a foreigner working in Japan was a unique role for me. My hours were limited to 35/hours a week with salary. They wanted to protect foreigners from burnout and save face regarding these sometimes harsh conditions. So I got to enjoy the benefits of the Japanese system without a typical burnout work schedule and intense atmosphere that is certainly present there

[@Blessindisguise]

That's so true. It made me concerned about working in Japan.

Just want to say that the owners of the company I work for complain that people want to be paid more. 1 of the owners just bought his 3rd house. The other just bought a cabin in the mountains.

[@Prettymapleleaf]

Yuck.

Quit and start your own company. That's what your company's owners did.

It is so true!! 2007 is when Smart Phones started being sold. That was LESS THAN 15 years ago! Where will we be in 15 years from now??? I guess this is why building PATTERNS of success in your life is more suited for success than becoming comfortable with knowing just one or two skills.

Networking is life

[@DrJustininJapan]

@@raystyles6338 Yes, networking is incredibly important. With COVID, I feel like how we network now has changed forever. People are paying more attention to digital avenues than ever before

Such an important message! 👏

[@celestialcircledance]

I'm jalousie of the security and stability that young Japanese workers are afforded though I would argue those same benefits also need to apply the older workers if they don't already . Here in the United States it just seems like its every man for himself and maybe if it were otherwise there wouldn't be such need for a supplementary universal income .

[@DrJustininJapan]

I really enjoyed the group work culture in Japan where people were quick to help each other. Being a teacher in a school was cool when cleaning time happened. Japanese schools don't have janitors. So everybody from little kid to School Principal clean the school together in silence for 15-30 minutes every day. I liked this time

I don’t disagree with her message but that’s not American corporate culture, where corporations are constantly looking to scale the workforce or export jobs to developing counties because they’ll work cheaper. Even low/minimum wage jobs such as the fast food industry are being scaled back by expanding automation where possible. Even drive-throughs are being tested for automated voice ordering, there are self delivering food delivery vehicles, places are even automating food preparation. “Robo-Fryolator 9000” But I have hope the kids growing up right now will reverse this trend.
