@@Richardo004 Technically, you're right; However, with the context onhand, countries like Japan with high Motivation towards achievements and success rates (Based on Hofstede cultural dimensions/values), which is 95/100, we can say that they live to work, not work to live. This means they are pretty decisive and they're always stressed, almost brainwashed to be the best at work, life, etc. If they're not, they feel worthless, depressed, they don't enjoy life, because life itself is all about work, success and social status; which isn't a good way to live life from a different point of view.

In fact, there are people who crawl to work, people who fall asleep on the street outside at night because they are so tired, and people who go crazy and scream in the train. This is the daily life of Japanese workers. It's extremely harsh.
Fun fact: Japan is sometimes known to have a bad work culture. Sometimes Japanese workers have been seen sleeping at the workplace, not going home for multiple days. Some others will fall asleep on the ground out of exhaustion on their way home. People sometimes donate water bottles to these sleeping people.

It is so bad that they literally invented a new phrase to talk about working oneself to death. Karoshi.

You don’t want to do this, at some circumtances the junior take over the senior position due to lot of responsibillity he have, it happens, and you shouldn’t be a jerk, Japan office work is hard and you adds more work to your junior in japan is kinda cruel
Or, since Japan has a higher workforce percentage of people of 65, dude is stuck in his job, trying to compete for a role that wont open for 15 years. Aging workforce is a massive global issue, Japan and Korea both see it, high cost of living, low pensions.
@@BlackAngusSirloin Honestly, the reason why juniors have so much work is probably because their seniors dump it all on them. Original comment just tells how the cycle will repeat.
It's because life is easy now in ways, but also stressful and difficult physically in many ways. But we push through all that and get the money because we need it, because the system sucks. I'm glad I'm where I am in the world, but also at times I wish it was harder, or easier. Easier because life is hard, and harder because life can be too easy to the point where if feels difficult . Hope this makes sense, this is a very privileged point of view I just stated, I love what I have and don't, I love life. At points I wish I was more grateful though, but I'll be better with time.

@@Hug0Pronot enough money for the work they want u to do these days. ur the same type of people who judge those who need medication for mental health. who cares !!
@@viktorolsson5927 I was making a comment like other people have done already in this video. I've seen videos on the working world in Japan and people have gotten so exhausted from working so much, they would resort to suicide. It would be the only way to escape the hell they'd be in. So that's why I made my comment because it is something that needs to be recognized.
Working in JP for several years already. The truth is many workers just choose to keep working and spend the rest of their lives at work. This is more ingrained in their culture: do your bestest best for the society and your own circle (company, clan, or what, ans most of the time, never for yourself). But the cases of work gaslighting, harassment and power tripping are sadly widespread as well.
Japanese people say, as if they are educated or propagandists in the company, "Work starts today! The holidays are over! Focus on work!" as if it were a virtue.
@@LuciVsevo For sure, not everything revolves only around money. Sometimes it's better to earn some less and have ordinary life, than for instance get another promotion and so on. And if You work so much that You even don't have time or strenght to enjoy spending the money You earn, it doesn't make sense at all. Or when You are so overworked and stressed every day, that You get serious health, psychological or mental problems, like severe depression or neurosis. Or when You work so much, having no time for Your family and people who care about You, that You end up alone. Or when You get older and You have no memories that matter and have only regrets about the time of Your life wasted only by working. Such situations are just not worth it. And You know, there's another saying - that a coffin has no pockets - meaning that if You die, You cannot take Your money and material things with You. By the way, nowadays even the EU in it's directives on labour issues emphasizes the importance of proper work - life balance.
@@BrandonBusby-u2b But who really has such career? I think it's rare, for most of the ordinary people. And not doing anything useful (not only to yourself, but also to the others) to the rest of your life is also not good for an individual. Actually, I think that it's good to work, to have some proffession - but under proper work conditions and in a good, reasonable, healthy work environment, including the real work hours, the appriopriate number of days of paid leave, the atmosphere at work, especially lack of mobbing, and so on.

Everyone is like this. I mean, this is still better. In fact, there are people who crawl to work, people who fall asleep on the street outside at night because they are so tired, and people who go crazy and scream in the train. This is the daily life of Japanese workers. It's extremely harsh.

I thought no one will open the door at 10years coz hes still on overtime. 😂😂😂
It changed from 1 year to 10 years Because he wasn't home yet at that time😂
Thats exactly supposed to be, no time to go home
Coz he did suicide 😂 common in japan
I thought the same but for a much darker reason….
why buying home 😂
Fun fact: Japan is sometimes known to have a bad work culture. Sometimes Japanese workers have been seen sleeping at the workplace, not going home for multiple days. Some others will fall asleep on the ground out of exhaustion on their way home. People sometimes donate water bottles to these sleeping people.

This comment section is so worth scrolling through! The wittiest viewers ever. Thanks for making me laugh out loud today guys!
It's nice to know that some things transcend language and cultural barriers
You don't get it, people in the west complain about working overtime, Japanese people work Overtime 80% of their working life... and whenever they aren't working overtime they go out to drink with their colleagues and the newer colleagues must behave in a certain fashion, and it's a literal hellhole of a nation when it comes to work. It is so bad that they literally invented a new phrase to talk about working oneself to death. Karoshi.
@@livedandletdiejapan has such a Ba Sing Se energy🗣️ and all indicates it's falling apart. my grandma came to Brazil from Japan during the ww2, so I could go and live there if I wanted (it's already fucked up that they would only accept people who have japanese 'blood' to live there - and if I had a child, the child couldn't because they wouldn't be japanese enough ☠️) when I was younger it looked like a cool place because animes and pokémon- but when you get older and critical about it, it's a horrible place. my dad spent more than a decade there when I was little, and he related that he only worked, even when he was sick. the only period he didn't was when he was hit by a car when he was going to work on his bicycle, luckily he only had his leg broken (one of his brothers also got in an accident but he didn't get lucky and ended up not being able to walk or move anymore). and my dad is so conflicted, he's one of those people that hate brazil, like he has this prejudice with his own people/nation, but he dislikes living in japan since he had that experience himself
Yeah and I’m happy it ain’t as bad here
Out of context but praying for the people living there hopefully everyone will be okay ❤
They are going to suffer a demographic crisis in the future so yeah pray lmao

@@eee_eeehe’s talking about a lot Japanese people unalive themselves to high expectations. Even when they have vacation, it is frowned upon to even take off. So they end up still working and never taking off. They named a forest in Japan sui cide forest, due to all the people unaliving themselves
He went from speaking English to straight Japanese too by the end 😅
Edit: OMDays Thank you all for the likes lol ❤️
Nice note, didn't even notice
Of course, he worked 10 years in Japan
That's HILARIOUS 😂

Not to talk of the drinking after with colleagues

Wait for season 3OPM they will work even harder
Chill, it's the cafeteria
I like how he switched from english to Japanese. 😂
Also reminds me of this ritual where people will place bottles of water in a circle around passed out business men/office workers.
But yeah...
Nobody seems to like how working for 40+ years, only to still somehow end up poor and dying within like 2 months into their retirement, is all that life holds ready for you.
Strange, isn't it?
His 10 years of frustration is equal to mappa's 1 anime production
Edit: i never received this many likes in my life thanks ❤
Thanks for telling the world you’re a little child…
10 years working in Japan 🇯🇵 for Bleach anime
Can confirm work in Japan is hard. My grandfather used to tell me stories of working there in there coal mines. Who would have thought as a US Marine his work portfolio would've been so diverse

And then bam isekaied😂😂😂
This should've been an eerie thought, until my brain made me imagine a working Japanese man doing a backflip due to stress and exhaustion.
I know I shouldn't laugh.
Doing the leap of faith without the hay.💀
Lmaooooo
He didn't even look any older, impressive! I need that man's skin care routine
A whole lot of office light and not being allowed to frown should do the trick

At 10 years, he's now senior and can have juniors stay late/do additional work for project on his behalf (common practice)
But still...he WILL go to work...
You don’t want to do this, at some circumtances the junior take over the senior position due to lot of responsibillity he have, it happens, and you shouldn’t be a jerk, Japan office work is hard and you adds more work to your junior in japan is kinda cruel
Or, since Japan has a higher workforce percentage of people of 65, dude is stuck in his job, trying to compete for a role that wont open for 15 years.
Aging workforce is a massive global issue, Japan and Korea both see it, high cost of living, low pensions.
@@BlackAngusSirloin Honestly, the reason why juniors have so much work is probably because their seniors dump it all on them.
Original comment just tells how the cycle will repeat.

They’re joking
Man literally showed us the premise of zom 100: bucket list of the dead.
I think he's trying to warn us about something.
I can go through all those feelings about a new job on day one, before lunch.
It's because life is easy now in ways, but also stressful and difficult physically in many ways. But we push through all that and get the money because we need it, because the system sucks.
I'm glad I'm where I am in the world, but also at times I wish it was harder, or easier. Easier because life is hard, and harder because life can be too easy to the point where if feels difficult . Hope this makes sense, this is a very privileged point of view I just stated, I love what I have and don't, I love life. At points I wish I was more grateful though, but I'll be better with time. Still young

@@viktorolsson5927what does that have to do with the people born today?
@@viktorolsson5927 I was making a comment like other people have done already in this video. I've seen videos on the working world in Japan and people have gotten so exhausted from working so much, they would resort to suicide. It would be the only way to escape the hell they'd be in. So that's why I made my comment because it is something that needs to be recognized.
Working in JP for several years already. The truth is many workers just choose to keep working and spend the rest of their lives at work.
This is more ingrained in their culture: do your bestest best for the society and your own circle (company, clan, or what, ans most of the time, never for yourself).
But the cases of work gaslighting, harassment and power tripping are sadly widespread as well.

Is it true? You should do a lot of research.

There's a saying that we work to live, not live to work. So the right, healthy work - life balance is sth really essential.
That’s right 🙌
Also make sure you pick a career you enjoy, everything does revolve around money, so take that into account 🥲
@@LuciVsevo For sure, not everything revolves only around money. Sometimes it's better to earn some less and have ordinary life, than for instance get another promotion and so on. And if You work so much that You even don't have time or strenght to enjoy spending the money You earn, it doesn't make sense at all. Or when You are so overworked and stressed every day, that You get serious health, psychological or mental problems, like severe depression or neurosis. Or when You work so much, having no time for Your family and people who care about You, that You end up alone. Or when You get older and You have no memories that matter and have only regrets about the time of Your life wasted only by working. Such situations are just not worth it. And You know, there's another saying - that a coffin has no pockets - meaning that if You die, You cannot take Your money and material things with You. By the way, nowadays even the EU in it's directives on labour issues emphasizes the importance of proper work - life balance.
It is possible to retire in your 30s and 40s if you choose the right career. Then you'll have so much life left after your working years.
@@BrandonBusby-u2b But who really has such career? I think it's rare, for most of the ordinary people. And not doing anything useful (not only to yourself, but also to the others) to the rest of your life is also not good for an individual. Actually, I think that it's good to work, to have some proffession - but under proper work conditions and in a good, reasonable, healthy work environment, including the real work hours, the appriopriate number of days of paid leave, the atmosphere at work, especially lack of mobbing, and so on.
