Day in the Life of a Japanese Car Repair Worker in Toyota
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 มิ.ย. 2019
- Living in Japan and working in a traditional Japanese office environment. This is a Toyota day in the life of a Japanese Auto Repair Shop worker, 30 year old, Erina. This is also a Japanese office tour inside of a Japanese auto repair shop in Toyota. We start this very typical day in her Japanese home, commute via Toyota car to her Toyota car repair shop. This is a day in the life of Erina and we get to see her with co-workers and Japanese mechanics in how they work in Japan. This is a peak into Japanese work culture as well as the work culture in Japan. We see her typical working hours in Japan and how it is working in Japan as a female in her position also known as a Japanese office lady, Japanese OL or Japanese salary woman. Her day in the life in Japan may be a bit different than some Japanese salarymen, but her experiences in the office and auto repair shop is quite common for Japanese employees in her position. The Japanese auto repair shop is also pretty common in terms of work-life. If anythings, the car repair shop is a very traditional office in Japan with Rajio Taiso, cleaning and work ethic. So all in all, this is an example of Japan life as well as Japan countryside life if you were to work in a traditional Japanese company. You should always be aware of Japanese culture when working in a Japanese office.

Day in a life of a Idol 🙌
WowI am so surprised that you saw my comment and gave a 'Heart" of my posting. Thank you so much. I would love to see more of your videos. I am currently _Benge' watching your Vids. You have a great personality, and you know how to keep the viewer interested in the video subject k all the best Shaun
A train driver, spefically a shinkansen driver if possible. Hopefully talk about shisa kanko. Japan trains facinate me.
Paolo fromTOKYO how about a movie theater attendant or the person that makes the bento boxes
0:50 voice of japanese warlord
hahaha, spot on! made me laugh 🤣🤣🤣🤣
guttural voice is best voice
no stop you made me laugh so hard 💀

Lol I was drinking water when I read this damn you
i laugh too hard man
I don't get it

NOICE !!
As a mechanic I start my day with hatred, caffeine and practicing every swear word I'm gonna say throughout any repair I do
I can identify.
You need a new job then
As a causal home mechanic I save up my swear words for when an integral bolt/nuts strips on what was supposed to be an otherwise simple fix. Then I resort to the good old phrase; it can’t ‘x’ if it’s a liquid
@@Moss_piglets No.
@@Moss_piglets No what mechnanics need are customers that aren't retarded know it alls. All too often people put off inspections, do macgyver fixes that fuck things up, or think they know better than a mechanic. Then weeks or months later they're wondering why the repair bill is so much higher than if they had things taken care of the issue properly ages ago.
paulo asking toyota mechanic: "what's your favorite car?"
toyota mechanic: "nissan silvia s15"
toyota: ur fired
But he works for Denso, not Toyota.
Most likely 2J swapped... lmao
@@brianng9765 that makes sense since they're independent from toyota now
Not a Supra?🤔 Cud it be it's BMW built?

Yes please do this Paolo
*We in the USA can only dream of a competent, well run, honest auto repair shop*
watershed44 haha thats funny. I live in japan going on 15years , your only seeing one side of the coin trust me.
@Mbusybuu
Honestly there is NO way possible that the Japanese are worse when it comes to the auto repair business, it is NOT possible. Sure they probably have their bad apples, but in the USA it is ALL bad apples, the good ones are as rare as hens teeth, and I worked in the industry here in the USA for 25 years! So I KNOW the reality here in this country.
@@watershed44 "ALL bad apples"
So You've worked at every Auto repair shop in the United States?? I'm not going to lie there are bad ones, but there are a lot of good ones at least where I live in California. The bad ones just get more attention.
Just wait until you see the cost of the repair.
You left out CLEAN!! Every garage around here just accumulates a new layer of black dust every year!
She's the backbone of that office
Basically a slave of stuff everybody doesn't want to do
@@k.baller5140 it's called a job for a reason you have to do the work thats assigned to you and you get paid, some jobs really really suck but hey you get some paper
@@stratejic1020 it's not a real job a "car repair worker" does. That's like a "chef" having to do nothing but dishes and never being to go near food.
@@k.baller5140 they really depends on you and what you think about the work that's being assigned to you whether you think it's out of left field or if you just really don't have a problem with it, what really matters the most though is working conditions and that you're getting money to keep yourself and your family afloat
@@k.baller5140 thank you

You know what I would like to see?
What a japanese citizen does on a day off.
Alcohol
@@metalheadblues And tobacco.
I dont think that exists
A Japanese citizen: Wait, you guys can have a day off? O.o
Endless sleeping
samurai voice from out of nowhere: "OHAIYO"
sleepy japanese girl voice: "ohaiyo"
this cracked me up xD
@@yaseendenath5209 I see you are a man of culture.
@SENO The Knight yh bro
Sarcastic Doughnut Broken streak already lol, what a shame
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH BRO U ARE THE BEST HAHAH
Sees Dad in the morning: "morning..."
Sees Dog in the morning: "Good Morning Doggiiiiie! Nice to see you! Oh, my sweetie!!!"
I noticed that too.
I do the same! a simple "Morning..." to my parents and for dog is basically "helooo baby, you sleep well?"
Biased
Cuteness drives people around
Both are more comfortable that way. Japanese family relationships are most definitely NOT effusive. No hugging, for example.
Just watched Paolo's New Years 2023 video and this "day-in-the-life" video came back around on my queue, which is perfect because Paolo mentioned some happy news for Eri-chan. Congratulations to Erina on her upcoming nuptials! (It's funny watching this 3 years later, especially now knowing who Erina and her parents are in relation to Paolo.)
Same
I did the same thing
Same just found out she's his sister in law
Laughing here...snap! Just done exactly the same!!
Lmao I just did the same
The "ohayo" from her father sounds like something a final boss would say, that voice is so deep 0:50
It reminds me of the anime/meme "Omae wa mou shindeiru" lmfao 😂😂😂
for some reason that voice reminded me of Heihachi Mishima
So much!!! thank you kind sir, I had missed it. Completely worth it
Akuma 😂
*NANI!?!?*
This job seems much more chill and good for your quality of life than the salaryman one.
It's no wonder why Toyota's are so damn dependable 🤔
Totally agree!
And, for sure, more efficient even if she's doing some things that in terms of efficiency shouldn't be done or the system relying on paper and manual count of money is really old.
yeah man i agree. salaryman, should be called slaveryman.
I agree
As an eastern-european I wanna say I`m so in love with the japanese culture. Hope to visit Japan one day. Love all of your videos!
This! Exactly this! Everything looks normal to proficient! We miss normal out here :(
as eastern-european I agree!
I love japan but goddam their work culture is so bad. I would never wanna work there.
How is this bad this is like a day care. They literally don't do anything and theyre getting paid.@@Ms-xq6jx
Japanese culture : misogynic, xenophobic, patriarchal.
I work at a Honda dealer as Lube Tech and the way they begin their work day with radio exercises is awesome. The kindness and respect in the Japanese culture is so amazing. Much love to the Japanese People. Yall are awesome.
Japan: *Doesn’t hang up before the Costumor*
US: *hangs up while the costumer is mid sentence* 👀
*_YOU DESTROYED THE WORD "CUSTOMER"._*
Naruto X Hinata ill hang up just for the hell of it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Indian customer care hands before listening problems
You can't say US because 98% of the tie you're talking to some middle eastern homies.
America is trash
I've never ever in my whole life saw a workshop car repair so clean, organized, neat and polite 😲.
I dont think this is your average fix it all shop....it looks like a dealership shop those are always meticulous even in the u.s. because they are affiliated with the manufacturers, i could be wrong though.
japan as a whole seems rediculously clean
honestly speaking, that's very common in Japan. they have very strong motivation for cleanness and well organized naturally.
Talyer
This is something that has always annoyed me, it's almost like a badge of honor to be excessively messy when working on cars. i think some mess will naturally be made but organisation helps organise the process and keep it clear.
Never seen a garage as clean, even the mechanics hands are spotless!!!
Who else came here after watching the latest video of him visiting his in-laws? :D
Yesss 🙈
Me
i do..
Same lol
Works in Toyota in a Toyota car shop.
"What's your favorite car?"
"Nissan"
the name of the region is toyota, the shop itself is not a toyota shop. Its 3rd party.
O nissaaaan :3
I see denso brand, i mostly see denso brand on a car AC system. Hence most of them is fixing the AC
Febrian Pratama Putra My friend works at Denso here in the Philippines and she is a junior software engineer ☺️
😁

"OHAYO"
That voice sounds like he is the yakuza boss.
lmao i didnt noticed it the first
omg true
Lol
Lmao so true .
lol that true 😂😂
Life in Japan seems.. like a breath of fresh air.. people seem to respect each other and care much more than in the United States. Thankyou very much sir.
I wish I could live in Japan instead!
I used to work for a Japanese company.
As an Asian, I thought we are already hardworking by nature and culture but I found that the Japanese are in a whole other level when it comes to work.
I apply the things I’ve learned working for them in my daily life and work.
"you don't take a shower in the morning???"
paolo in every video
Gordon Fremen LMAOOOO IKR
They all shower at the night before sleep
Lol that creep
the casino worker took bath in the morning.. only him
Japan is not a tropical country, so you don't need to bathe too often
Paolo, this "Day in the Life" series is fascinating. Keep it up
What he said. I'm addicted to these
Yeah.. I subscribed mainly for that
Michaelmotorsport 🇪🇪like
👍😎Hide too Michaelmotorsport youtube😂
I watch these in the morning for some reason they make me more motivated? If that makes sense
here because of the new year's video. COULDNT BELIEVE IT. but now i do. HAHA!
This is MAIKOS SISTER!!!
Fun fact: Erina, the main girl in this video, is actually Paolo's sister-in-law, Maiko's sister
Credits?

"Erina-sama UwU"
Wait that's actually kind of cool how he kept in character in his In-laws house lol
I work as a mechanic in a peugeot/chevrolet garage in Italy and i have to say is very rare to see a garage this well organized and clean , wow.
True that, I work for Toyota here in Chicago. Our shop is old as fuck. Shitty management too.
same in malaysia not clean
Yeah but you work in Italy, everything is chaotic down there. Things are more like this in Northern Europe.
Like the cars are all super clean too. Is that the Japanese way or is it because its all on camera that day?
all japan is that clean
Who went back and watched this after watching Paolo's 2023 New Years video?
Me
I feel like Japan is the only country where i wont get scammed if i go to the mechanic because they are such honest hard working people
There are scammers everywhere
@@Immigrantlovesamerica But the Japanese bow and are very polite when they scam you.
So she is the Accountant, Procurement Officer, Inventory/ Storage Clerk , Janitor etc.
That’s a lot of work
its really not, if you do chores growing up
SHE TOOK A FUCKING NAP!!!!!!!
@@fineguy2696 I unterstand!!!! From a companys' perspective what she's doing here is laid out in no form of contract.
@keith cunningham lmfao school secretaries doing anything productive haah, good joke mate
@keith cunningham Her Job description is as wide as an "OPEN GENERAL" Drivers License. Secretaries suppose to do Administrative Tasks. Anyway ist a lukrative way to keep the Company flourishing while slaving the workers at minimum wage....
Damn, her role in the company is more akin to be their Mom than an accountant.
Well if she wants to be a mechanic then she needs to go to school for it
That's accurate :D
@ken shamrock a very sensible analysis. tell me, how will capitalism solve food shortages, climate change, over population, and further class division? will love to here how capitalism "works" for these.
@@yugom488mmmauser2 - Capitalism solves food shortages because a reasonable profit motivates people to produce and distribute food to people. The higher the profit the more people are motivated to provide the service.
@@americancitizen748 40 million Americans have food insecurity. Almost every state below the Mason-Dixon line has a food insecurity rate equivalent or higher than the national average. The main causes include stagnant wages and the lack of a cohesive public policy. Simply put, the market based economy and late stage capitalism of the US has not been able to address this issue. While the top 1% enjoy increasing bonuses and tax cuts, people are noticing little changes in their income and quality of life.
I am so loving the day in the life series and so falling in love with Japan
Here from the New Years video!
I love how everyone is open to Paolo without feeling 'what is this dude doing here'.
he lives there.
They legitimately look like they don't know he's there. Pretty cool!
I always have this question. To whom does he ask for permission
He probly just came by and socialize with people a few times before shooting session. He seems a very affable guy.
That last scene was kind of weird, like David Attenborough talking about some family of birds behind him.
Thank you Erina for letting Paolo share your everyday story :)
Well she is her in-laws. Maiko's sister to be in fact
@@exia0616 I know, but still a thank you, not everyone wants to share their daily life.
Awww! Such a wholesome family! I love that cocoa Chan was sitting on the moms lap during dinner!
Phenomenal video! I'm a BIG fan of your channel. Really love seeing what different cultures are like and quite refreshing to see people being kind to one another. Thank You!
Love these "day in the life" videos. Something about seeing a person from another country and how they work/live is just incredibly fascinating. Please keep doing these!
Thanks Ethan! More of these videos to come.
@@PaolofromTOKYO which is the best place for living and working in japan as a foreigner ? What is the climate in japan ?
ya it really is and his camera and editing skills make it so much better!!
I agree, and it's nice to see Paolo interview different types of workers in different industries, instead of the same old office worker in Japan. Many different possibilities, I'd like to see train/train station workers, gas station workers, even custodial type jobs, all those jobs that are not 'glamorous' I still enjoy seeing.
Ethan I agree! Watching here in California
she is easily the most valuable person in this company lol keep going you legend
She is replaceable. We are all.

This was great! I loved Erina's tiny car! I also love her dad just chilling on the floor watching TV. Nice!
Thats an old toyota yaris. They don't look like that anymore tho
I love the production quality on these, and it is always interesting to learn more about how Japanese people live :D
I wonder if the Japanese think it’s interesting on how Americans live 🤔
Come learn about how indian people live 😂😂
Divakar De no thanks, I’d rather not see scammers at work.

True man of culture

@@alexlooby5576 It's played back through the Head Unit..You need an Alarm that is tied to it.
Paolo, I really enjoy this series. The little nuggets of information you drop are very interesting (counting Japanese paper money, the waiting for the customer to hang up the phone). These are gems that the average visitor to Japan will not encounter.
She is like the garage mom. It's great. I hope she gets the appreciation she deserves
Paolo asks Toyota Mechanic what's your favorite car
Mechanic: NISSAN SILVIA
damn, my man knows whats up
He isnt Toyota Mechanics. City is named Toyota, not that shop. This shop is third-party.
Lol
Me : Subaru WRX Sti

dad's a champ... doing yoga after dinner in front of the tv. just netflix and chill vibe all on...
And he's talking something about "double cheese burger" at the table.
Netflix and chill vibe means to watch Netflix with the eventual expectation of sexual activity. Not sure if it's their case lol
Dat flexibility tho
@@himtortons9526 exactly... thus the reason why he was stretching first...
I will try this
What a brilliant systematic life, they are high-tech manufacturers but when it comes to behavior, customs, and mannerisms they are purely traditional, Japan as a nation always generates positive vibes.
Thank you. This was a fascinating look into a different culture.
Can you do a day in a Japanese florist. I work as a florist and i would love to see how it is in Japan. Btw i love your video and i learn so much about Japan because of you💕
Yesssss!!!!
Yeah that would be awesome. In Japan flowers are sooo expensive!
One thing about Japanese florist and not saying bad about other countries is that they are SUPER meticulous. Not sure why but they usually cut all the leaves off unlike in the US; personally I like it but they seem very particular how they are cut. Would love to see it as well though in either way!
would also LOVE to see this!!
good idea
Erina is 30 years old huh?
She looks barely 20 but acts like she's 40.
😂
bruhh lmao
So your point is?
@@Niko_Soldo his point is a curious observation about Erina's lifestyle. Thats it.
Dont watch hentai. It will get you be old fast
I am so happy for Eri-Chan, it’s been a while now but a huge congratulations to her and her now-husband ❤❤❤
another great video. thanks paolo for all your hard work filming and editing these vids
Its impressive how taking care of other employees is part of the culture.
I agree, in my workplace people are constantly backstabbing, snitching and kissing the bosses arse.
@@zanmato0 same for me at my old work. It wasn't team work, and now when I visited my old work, I was not surprised that the whole staff got replaced because of that. 😎 They created drama that they all got fired except for the one who actually trained me well. She told me all the deets lol plus from my own view, my ex co workers were rude to customers 😒 and to me.
I know right! I actually laughed out loud when Paolo was like "She's making tea for everyone! How NICE of her!" I got a small sense of sarcasm from that comment since that would pretty much NEVER happen in an American company... and if it did people would suspect asskissing/brown nosing LoL
if an employer in america requested a woman wear makeup, clean, and go get lunch for the shop guys it would spiral in to a viral story about discrimination, sexism, and probably sexual harassment- just for good measure. pleasantness and submissiveness go hand in hand; Asian countries typically have much more submissive women and children.

I watched every video in this series and I understood that every Japanese person is extremely organized, whether it's a housewife or a master chef or a software engineer. Thank you Paolo for these valuable life lessons. Do keep the videos coming. I also have a request for "A day in the life of a Japanese PhD student or researcher".
@Leen B i guess to be snappy or be productive at work?
Why do I get the feeling that you are doing your PhD from a central government university?
It's taught the moment they start school, just like how our Kindergarten in Canada starts teaching us how to read. I kind of like our system more because it just lets a kid be a kid without having to worry about organization but that's just me.
@@assassinaria I liked the way you disagreed bro. If only more people could do like you.
@@abhishekpariyar7895 I did not disagree with you, man. I just added to what you said.
When she was petting her dog I noticed she's got three little stars tatooed on her foot. She's a rebel!
Very well made video! Cool to see what it is like in a repair shop in a different country.
I hope she gets paid well, she is the mom of that shop.
M Pa unfortunately they usually get underpaid.
I wouldn’t say she’s the mom because other people have the same job as her and some have more important jobs. She look like she work a lot but it’s because we see it from her perspective. The pay is probably decent
she aint doing shit though
I know the average salary in Tokyo is around $37,000. I am not sure that living with her parents is a consequence of her salary?
@@TH-camSpareTime in asian culture its normal to live with parents well into adulthood. it's also normal to raise your own family in your parents house.

The culture difference in the work force is amazing. Being from the United States I think I work relatively hard but compared to everyone you have done a day in the life of what i do is almost nothing in comparison... Its so inspiring seeing such awesome work ethic!
The japanese are known to be proficient but you have to consider that they know they are being filmed, you would act more proffesionnal and proficient too knowing a camera is following your every moves :)
Not work ethic. It's exploitation ingrained in the culture
For an office administrator, she sure does a lot of the smaller tasks around the office that you usually expect people in lower positions to do.
Working in a Japanese company really is different from other countries!
Job security for sure
she is in lower place than an espresso coffee machine in west .

Noticing a lot of single 30's people living with their parents.... im safe
That’s tough
There isn’t anything wrong with that, especially when they’re helping out the parents pay for rent/mortgage or food. I can see it being tough if you’re dating, but if you’re single and actively contributing to the household, I don’t see a problem.
Im sure the parents really enjoy still having that connection with their children. Too often, kids leave the home and never contact their parents except on Christmas holidays.
Its normal in most of asian country
Save money.
Ah yes the wonders of car repair:
getting lunch
making tea
cleaning the break room
emptying the trash
and doing accounting
That's what they expect of women in Japan. It's pretty common for women to just be basically secretaries despite their qualifications.
@@winter4abunny is it still the same in larger cities? To be honest I think it sucks and is humiliating if you need a cleaning lady just hire one.
@@winter4abunny it looked more like she was higher status than lower
Jennifer Dzieło Japan is still very much traditional when it comes to gender roles in the workforce. But it’s gradually becoming a lot more progressive so women get to do a lot more nowadays
Your programmes are so informative. I am from Melbourne Australia. I love to see a life of a commercial embroidery factory
I love the content man nice to see another side of the world and u do the vids so well covering diffrent layers.
(American kid puts a jdm sticker on his subaru and think it's cool)
Japan: "This sticker let's other drivers know that you drive like shit:)"
Street Taco 😂
Now i get why gran turismo gives me that after failing so much in the license tests...
I have wondered what these stickers were for the longest time!
Well, those "American kids" tend to actually drive like shit, so it fits. Too bad so few even know about the meaning.
We have novice driver stickers too lol they literally say “Novice Driver” depending on where you live you usually get one if you just got your license
I am a mechanic in Texas. Always interested how other mechanics around the world do there job. Props to Japanese mechanics.
I am impressed in how clean the floor of the shop was.
@@raymondharris3200 very usual out here in the west for a non factory shop, but it seems like it's just normal in Japan.
Same for me! Got my own garage in Germany.
He just uploaded a video "Day in the Life of a Japanese Mechanic"
Have you seen the new one that came out on Saturday I can’t imagine working on such large trucks
She is a very hard worker and very motivated. Good job!
Very interesting. Thank you for sharing.
Nap at work thats legendary. Now we need naps at school.
Vanilla Salt I think in many Mediterranean countries it’s quite common, too. Actually, it’d boost productivity if you take a nap, I read.
Dude, here in Indonesia people will take a nap also after lunch at the office... Many Asians do that bro
No mate school not works that way school means to grind better be grind hard if you want to upgrade to work that you can sleep whenever you likee
😂😂😂😂(But that's not gonna happen)
@@deadby15 Atleast in Spain we don't take naps in school. Well he have them after eating lunch, but haha it will be nice having another one too.
move to taiwan bro we have mandatory naps in school, the school guard comes to check if youre sleeping or not LMAO
Dude, I just want to say as an American living in Japan for 18 years now, fluent Japanese and immersed in the culture... even I find you videos great. Somehow, I find these videos rather comforting. It’s like I’m watching another version of me that’s able to view different things from another perspective. Anyways, well done bro. Most of all I can’t help but wish you all the best with your new family. I hope it brings you all the happiness you’ve worked so hard for and deserve.
His english died as his japanese started coming to life
Love these kinda videos... Keep making more of these... Arigato ✌
Thank you for sharing
I really love how they stay together at 12:21 even the dad is laying down peacefully. I wish I had people like that in my family.
Really? You're calling your dad an asshole
Me too
That's the part they get naked and have incest sex. Seems common in Japan
@@jungness you watch too much Japanese porn...i can tell, 'coz i do.
Not everybody has wonderful families that stay together...this lady in the video does...good for her. That's all that doreiku is saying.
All I'm saying is that working in an American shop is way different. It's like, good luck, don't hurt yourself, please, don't hurt yourself, oh, and you have five minutes to do a 30 minute job. Good luck
also, please don't hurt yourself
Also were charging you $100usd per hour just for labor.
same here in Italy mate
True. the only reason I have insurance is through my wife. Otherwise it's "just be careful and hurry up".
