Day in the Life of a Japanese Factory Worker
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 เม.ย. 2024
- A day in the Life as Japanese Egg Factory Worker in Japan. This is a typical day working in a Japanese factory from morning until night. The average factory worker in Japan works a set amount of hours ever day as you'll see. Also, in Japanese factories, it’s very common to have more part-time shift workers, than full-time workers. In this egg factory, 80% of the workers are part-time and 20% full-time. Kenta works at Yachiyo Poultry, a well-renowned egg factory in Japan with a proud 95 year history running it’s own farms. In Japan, TAMAGO aka eggs have a place in every meal which is why it’s no surprise that the country ranks as the 2nd highest consumer of eggs globally, each person consuming on average 339 eggs per year. Also, there is quite a lot Japanese work culture that can be seen in this video. For example, punctuality, is a deeply ingrained aspect of Japanese work culture, emphasizing the importance of being fully prepared and ready to work before the start time, rather than simply arriving at the start time. I hope you enjoy this day in a Japan factory focused on delivering the freshest eggs in Japan and can see why many Japanese can safely eat raw eggs in Japan.

I love how you Japanese are dedicated to your jobs to the smallest details
Idol Paolo de guzman❤❤❤
Thank you for another beautiful episode paolo, I really enjoy these day in the life videos keep up the good work bro. Someday soon please do a video of how eggs are collected from chickens before being taken to the factory
Hi Paolo you should do a video about what farm the actual eggs come from ? That would be really interesting to see !
Paolo, can you please film a day in the life of a social worker or in the disability care? I really want to know how it works in this field. I want to move there but I don’t know how the social work field is going there.
Finally, an apartment that doesn't look like something out of a fairy tale.
No excuses, just clean your room kid
@@tsukiyama6750you have no idea how small that apartment is.
Your kind can and will clean my room, I have some spare change, chop chop.
@@LoLFilmStudios I know it is easy to skip cleaning. Easier than do the cleaning
So cleaning your house is straight out of a fairly tale, huh. A dirty bastard is what you are for not cleaning.
its disgusting
Now this is the blue-collar video i've been waiting for. Just an average Joe working an honest 9-5 job.
7.30-6 in his case but i agree.
@@Soulhope85 9-5 is actually 9-6 so 7.30-5
@@Soulhope85 haha in Japan a 9-5 job is 7-6
9-5 is just a term that means regular job, he isn’t saying that he specifically works those hours
my name is joe too
Kenta if you’re reading this thank you for sharing your work and day in the life! Wishing the best on all your endeavor!!
I agree, thank you Kenta for sharing your day. Hello from Brisbane Australia 🙇👋
I agree! Thank you Kenta! Mariale, thank you for supporting Kenta. Your a kind person!
@@JapanLingo198Why is everyone thanking kenta one by one?
@@1A_B_C1 because we admire him, and we show respect to him, because obviously he is working hard in work also he isn’t lazy or anything like that.
At the beginning, When I saw his apartment, I really thought Kenta was just a typical otaku Japanese. But after learning about his backstory and his daily routine, I think it's amazing how he can manage to juggle between intense work at the factory and chasing his dreams as a musician. Truly an inspiring video 👏
Let alone,growing up with your parents separated.definitely a juggle
Respect , kenta. Keep working hard!
The broke artist stereotype
IKR, 7AM clock in 6PM out... who will have time for de-cluttering
@@buttert0aztevery working person does that , welcome to the adult life
To everybody commenting on the state of Kenta's apartment, you need to understand that the Tokyo metropolitan area is VERY expensive. Have you ever noticed that most of the people Paolo spotlights have above-average careers, such as owning a factory or working at a major company as a game programmer? Their apartments/houses are outliers. The average Tokyo apartment is closer to the size of Kenta's in my experience
This is the way things are. One doesn't invite friends over....no room!
Nuh the guy is just dirty
Well, not an excuse to live in an unclean environment
It's not the size, it's the clutter, the lack of organize, how he shoves the bedding into a closet instead of neatly folding it, and the fact the lack of cleaniness continues into other rooms. Japanese are taught to be endlessly clean and careful and here a stark opposite. I do realize many clean up and tidy their home before the video, but it's surprising.
Dude, i think people are pointing out how he seems to give no attention to the tidyness or cleanliness of his home, not the size of it. You can have a small apartment yet still be clean & tidy af. I’m a living proof of that. And besides i dont think that someone should need THAT much stuff when in the end you couldn’t even find most of it due to the poor storage management. And to think that he works in a factory that demands its workers to sanitize themselves everyday right before entering the office.
Kenta is a hard worker. He is so responsible. He left his dream because he did the responsible thing to get a job and earn money. I hope you get a good raise and you are able to fulfil your dreams. Hard choices in life need to be made to survive. I wish you well
I love how realistic Kenta's home is, it really takes guts to show it exactly as it is to not just one or two people but to the entire world.
We really need to normalize homes that are not always minimalistic or perfect, Kenta opened up his home so people could see into a day of his life, the least people could do is be respectful towards the guy :/ Thanks for sharing a day in your life with us Kenta! Thanks Paolo for this great informative video!
12:27 For the guy testing the freshness, I was feeling quite sad to see a whole bucket of eggs that were tested, do they just get thrown out even if they were good? 😢
I'm curious how many he tests in a day and how much goes to waste everyday even if they were good eggs huhuhu bur I totally understand this is necessary to ensure the product being sold is in its best condition.
did you watch the video about japanese life in this chanel =))))
Kenta is a phenomenally hard worker, humble and driven. It’s no surprise he’s a smart high-flying facility supervisor at 33. Blue collar work is vastly dismissed but he’s proof that there’s hope for the future of honest, vocational work.
I hope he reads and cherishes all of the positive comments here praising his work! ☺️
Paolo once again is the MAN 🔥 WE NEED MORE DAY IN THE LIFE
Agreed,
@@Denis.-1 ooohhh yyyeeaaa 😆
YES!!! I love watching them!
Paolo needs to meet Lou C. She vlogs her daily life in Japan
day in the life, let's see if you really trap, turn off the auto tune, let's see if you can really rap
I appreciate how kind & respectful Paolo is to everyone in each of his videos. I love learning about the Japanese culture & each vlog is so calming which brightens my day. Thanks Paolo & family 💘
Request: Day in a life of a Japanese Police Officer
Yess!!
Love to see these videos focus on “ordinary” people. I feel like it puts my own ordinary life in perspective and makes me feel like my life is special in its own way
The confidence of this man to show us his home is unmatched 💪 Keep up the hard work Kenta!
We can have comfortable and safe life in Japan thanks to people like him. Thank you.
イノベーションとか、常識破りとか、海外進出とか、そういうモダンな価値観がどうしてもクローズアップされる今日なのでどうしてもメディアや私たちの目もそちらを注目してしまいます。しかし、結局毎日の日本の生活を支えているのはけんたたさんのような方々のおかげだと強く実感しました。たしかにそうした最近の価値観とは遠い職業なのかもしれませんが、この動画のような方々がいなければ私たちは安心して卵を食べることもできないということですよね。本当にありがとうございます。
if this is how your factory work is, sign me up.
I've worked factory and the managers that huff down your neck to go faster and hound you, even while you go to the bathroom, are INSANE.
I think given the amount of work and responsibilities he had in the factory, it's normal that his house looked like that. His work looks like it needs a lot of concentration and he needs to be attentive all the time.
It's so brave to put out your life to the audience here, I hope you'll have a good life, Kenta-san.
Notice how he spent his night reading manga until 2am instead of cleaning? Hes using his time wrong and is just a gross lazy dude....he self admitting he isnt using his time well 🤣🤣 man apologists for EVERYTHING nowadays
@@stoniefalcon7735that’s a very rude comment to make about someone you don’t know and who doesn’t even care for your opinion.
Please reflect and develop some maturity and empathy, if you’re capable.
@@the-chipette huh? Take your own advice before commenting why do you think I care what you have to say?
@@stoniefalcon7735 you’re full of 💩. Accept that and stop being so judgmental.
Literally almost every day in the life of this channel I have seen, I always see a very clean and immaculate house or apartments but Kenta is the only who shows that his apartment is actually lived in. There is some things that do need to be cleaned up a little but I see nothing wrong with it. Honestly it's a clean clutter.
right?? as long as its healthy and he is happy who are we to judge?
Totally agree!
Have you ever thought about doing videos on rice farming? I used to work in wheat fields, so I'm curious about not only their methods but what life in the Japanese countryside is like. You can even break it into different episodes. Crop selection, planting, fertilizing, weeding, watering, harvesting, crop rotation, etc.
That probably won't be very interesting for most of his viewers, especially if there will multiple videos of it.
@@touma-san91 Anything can be interesting, it's about the narrative, perspective and down to stuff like editing. Did anyone even want to know about the day in the life of an office worker in Japan? Nobody asked for it and we've already had many interesting office worker videos.
I’m also interested in the type of jobs available in the country side.
I think rice farming would be very interesting! When I was driving my bike next to huge rice fields in Japan, I always wondered about how it's exactly done
As an Indonesian, I'm semi-familiar with rice farming, but would be interesting to see how Japan does it
Another day in the life routine videos that you did for now just made my day, Paolo dude. Same usual routine with the same background music, just the way I like it. Keep it up as always, dude.
Glad you liked it!!
One of the best episodes in the "day in the life" series. Loved almost all the episodes, but it is super refreshing to see a regular blue-collar worker who isn't a nepo baby or owns their business.
bro runs the factory AND chasing his dream. got nothing but MAD Respect for this man!
I was having kind of a bad day, but Paolo's egg puns are making me giggle and smile so big I can't help but feel better!
So, you cracked a smile😁 glad your day got bit better.
@@mamanoneyall51 Indeed I did! 🤣
Yea it was an eggcelent episode
The puns had me snorting. 😂
@@LXBalla4414 I was waiting for that!!
I will always find it amazing of how so many Japanese Companies, Brands and whatnot are so open for vidoes like this
thats on paolo hard work, I do not think it is that easy if you don't have contacts and good reputation
advertisement lol
@@SDT493considering that most of this channel's viewers is not Japanese, advertising is not the motivation.
@@roku_nine I disagree and there is certainly a contingent of Japanese viewers who watch his videos... These company's likely converse with Paolo and do their best to show themselves well. They are likely to be comfortable showcasing how things are done properly which then serves to bolster their public perception inside AND out of Japan. This would be appealing to both investors, viewers and potential customers. Can you not fathom the amount of people exposed to these videos who are then going down to the rabbits hole with said products and features? You would be silly to think otherwise.
@@user-by6eb6zo7g I think what he is trying to say is that the company isn't going to get a bump in egg sales because of this video.
kenta's such an authentic, cheerful guy.. loved him! another great one, paolo, thanks!
Regardless of how his house is, lets all just be nice to each other and respect one another. No one knows anything about whats going on in other peoples lives. We see what they lets us see only. Be kind 😊
I cannot even say how much these episodes make my day!!! Love these so much Paolo!
All my respect to the gentleman showcased in this episode because people hide behind facades, and we need so much more transparency. This was honest and touching and I absolutely loved it.
The one common thread of all these day in the life videos is the dedication and thoroughness the people put into their jobs. In Japan it's no slackers allowed. 😄
Military precision and discipline in everyday life!
There's no exact word for "lazy" in Japanese. Laziness doesn't exist here.
Hence the high amounts of depression, decreasing marriage/kid rates, and suicide lol
Plenty of hikikamori.
@@BuffPomsky What a dumbasss lol 🤣
The work ethic and positive attitude of these workers is inspiring. I really enjoyed this day in the life.
I wish people in America had the same work ethics
@@Gacy137 Maybe if companies paid more, they would.
@@MrxxVENUSxx it’s not the companies job for facrtory jobs especially to pay what is standard. Your prime example, work up and earn your way up instead of expecting it. This why you will stay at the bottom 🥱
@@MrxxVENUSxxamerica pays more than japan lol and u dont have to deal with all the traditions or cultural bs. All these ppl in japan put a respectable front but are working overtime. Even in other vids, ppl dont do video calls, taxis, young serving old, and whatnot all cuz tradition.
@@Gacy137 nothing wrong with standing up for yourself and asking for more.
This was a lot of fun to watch - thank you Paolo!
These are my favorite videos.
It is always nice to watch different people doing different jobs.
As always Paolo giving us interesting day in the life videos 😊😊
Glad you like them!
I love these day in the life videos, keep them coming 🫡
People who work in factories are so important! I'm not a very detailed person so I really appreciate when people are able to be meticulous and look at the details.
When I lived in Japan, I noticed the eggs being extremely orange and tasty. The chickens are fed a highly nutritious feed which include things like flower petals or carrot powder.
There is also a dish you can have only in Japan. I forgot the name but you literally mix raw eggs into a steaming hot bowl of rice and is such a tasty snack. I heard we can’t do that with eggs here over in North America tho lol
Also a Japanese screamo band?! AWESOME! Great video!
Search TKG - Tamago Kake Gohan
I've been raising chickens for over 10 years and the rich orange color is from the chickens having access to wild greens, bugs, and flowers. The better their diet the darker the orange coloring. This is why the commercial eggs here in the US are a pathetic pale yellow and taste so bland. Their chickens are raised in chicken houses with only commercial feed to eat.
If you want to eat raw eggs it doesn't matter what continent you're living on. Find a local farmer like me that doesn't wash their eggs. The natural bloom from the chicken is far more effective at protecting and preserving the egg then washing them. Washing the eggs speeds up the expiration date by months. So only wash them when you're ready to eat them. Otherwise just keep them refrigerated.
bro's saying only japan has eggs and rice frfr 💀💀
If you start your own husbandry, you will soon learn the amazing world of howw good food actually tastes a lot better when it is grown and taken care by you. Surely, I would love to have those technology for checking and testing the eggs for better efficiency. one daayy. ❤❤❤✨✨✨
Yeah unlike in my country where they are mostly fed soy, even their pork is fed good stuff unlike corn and soy
Easily one of the best series on TH-cam. Keep up the great work!
Paolo, your videos are some of the best on TH-cam. Please, please never stop doing what you're doing and sharing insight into this amazing country.
Probably some of the best, most well produced Japan video series I've seen on TH-cam.
It was like watching a movie. Paolo makes it so compelling ... You can't help but root for him. 👍👍👍
👍
Another episode of Day in the Life! I love your channel! I appreciate the hard work.
Love these videos that you do! Thank you, Paolo.❤
Always enjoy and find your "Day In The Life" videos interesting. Keep them coming!
i really love watching these day in a life videos they're so entertaining!
Thank You Paolo ! I love a day in the life series ❤
Utterly fascinating to me. Thank you as always, Paolo!
I love watching a day in the life videos. Seeing how people from different backgrounds and jobs work is amazing to me. I used to work with kids and I always knew I could show them this channel. They loved the videos and enjoyed your content so much
Horray for a new Day in the Life episode! So excited!
So informative and relaxing to watch. Glad he still gets to jam out afterwork with his buddies.
Definitely one of my favorite videos!! It's so cool to see how factory workers help with everyday life in Japan!
So cool to see Kenta’s life! Amazing job Kenta💥
Love this "Day in a Life" Videos of yours. Greetings from Germany
Videos like this are such a treat. Thank you Paolo & team.
I love these videos I know I probably will never see Japan in person but I feel I get a glimpse from all the workers videos thanks Paolo
I love seeing lived in spaces. It's more realistic and relatable. Thank you for sharing your day with us, Kenta! And thank you Paolo for another great video!
I just realized that this channel is basically "soft power" for Japan. Really highlights the quality of how Japanese firms are run.
Amusingly, I was initially an international business major and took Japanese, but I was terrible at languages. I switched to finance. Was much easier since it was just numbers.
When I wake up every saturday , I first watch your video only. it has very positive vibes and smiles all around. it is like a therapy for me after a week of chaotic and stressful work
I will always be impressed by these videos. Keep up the good work Paolo Sir!
Thanks Paolo for another great video. It's refreshing to see the japanese culture at work.. and im happy that Kenta is still playing after his shift.. I was just surprised that his started at 7am but came out already dark.. but glad to see he was able to unwind..
Rock on Kenta! thank you Paolo for another one!
Paolo hatching another Day in the Life. Thanks for the video.
Love this series of videos. Watched many of them more than once. Only been to Japan once so far, but every time I watch another one of these videos I can't wait to go back for another visit. Please continue with the excellent videos.
Japan is really on another level in so many aspects. also, thank you forsharing a portion of your life with us Kenta! 🎉🎉
Love these videos, Paolo! My dad and I watch these together and we find them so interesting. My dad especially loves the one with the auto mechanic, as he loves cars. Thank you for making these videos and thank you to all the individuals sharing their lives in them.
Thank you Kenta for sharing a day in your life with us ❤. Another awesome video Paulo ❤
Always love your videos. Such a fun insight while also being as wholesome as possible.
Love these day in life series!
Paolo From Tokyo, your “A day in the life of a/an” series is my favorite series to watch on TH-cam! I have learned so much about Japan from you and your channel then from textbooks and other books! Please continue on making more fun videos!
Really appreciate how raw and insightful these videos are. No excessive glamour.
That’s so cool! I’m so impressed with this quick turnaround 🙌
Thank you for bringing back these videos. Love them.
Cordial
Kompila, Ghana.
Really awesome. I enjoyed myself so much! Thank you!
Was just wondering when a new episode would come out and here it is 🔥
I love all the day Ina life videos. Loved the video. Please make more such videos more often. ❤✨️✨️
I love how informative this is. I never knew how much went into the japanese egg market. Thanks for another amazing Day in the life video,Paolo!
kentaが大人気！Paoloさんありがとう！
One of the best vids I've seen! Enjoyed it
These are GREAT videos. Thank you! Please keep them coming.
最後のバンド練習までフォローしているのがイイな！
I admire everyone that has been covered. Such amazing, hardworking individuals. I love them all! ❤
DAY IN THE LIFE is my favorite segment from your channel Paolo ! it gives me lots of information and also entertaining. Keep this segment forever !
配信ありがとうございます 八千代ポートリーの巡業員です。
I haven't watch Paolo in a while but looking back at the videos I missed I don't regret turning on my notifications for Paolo's channel. Best wishes for Paolo and his family ❤❤
Thanks for this very informative video Paolo ☺️
I've watched a couple of these now, and it's always more interesting than I expect.
These videos are really good Paolo!
Hey Paolo, been watching and loving your videos. Thank you for sharing!
My pleasure!
A++++++ video. Thank you for showing different trades, consultants, and workers in Japan!!! Best wishes yo your channel and your family.
Thanks Paolo, love the "Day in a life" content!
You know the funny thing is I just said earlier this morning that I feel like a new “Day in a life video “was going to come out. I’ve been waiting for another video like this. Keep up the good work Paolo ❤️❤️
Nice work, I hope one day we can get follow-up videos, "Where are they now" type episodes, checking up on some previous people featured on the show.
i second this! how about a revisit to wrap up each season or year! thank you Paolo!
Good luck on your music career, Kenta 😊 Another great Day in the life video
Kenta, thank you for sharing your life with us. And Paolo, the series is absolutely awesome. I admire Japanese work organisation, their being so considerate of others and their giving it all.
これだけの工程があるから生卵が安心して食べられるのですね！🥚
I'm so glad there's another day in the life video. your videos have taught me so much about what life is like in Japan and what there day is like. I always make sure to have my notifications on. thank you for teaching people.😊
These are the best videos on TH-cam! They always puts a smile on my face 🥰
I love these videos they’re such a treat!✨
I was reading through all these comments about Kenta's apartment but no one has pointed that nobody sat with him when he ate his lunch. 😢 Paolo, please tell Kenta he's an awesome guy and hope he has a nice day... ALWAYS!
nah that'd common, and he probably had a chat to the guys on the other table.
@@jj-if6it no bro, look at how most of them are eating together but not him
@@lazypanda9066 there's a girl and a guy behind him eating alone. Also it's possible that they didn't want to talk on camera so Paolo filmed him alone
Some people also like eating alone, if Kenta falls into this category, there is no need to feel sad for him.
That egg packing factory looked cleaner than most clinics lol
Awesome video as always Paolo. I have a huge respect for Kenta he’s a hard working and dedicated to his career. I have worked in liquid egg production for 7 years it’s always full of headaches so I have a lot of respect for this company and all its employees.
Thank you for another beautiful episode Paolo, I really enjoy these day in the life videos. Someday soon please do a video of how eggs are collected from chickens before being taken to the factory
Yay my favorite thing to watch here on youtube thank u paolo 💗
That's neat that they use べツドタウン. I thought "Bedroom Community" was specifically an American English term. That's why Japanese is such a cool language.
And the dude likes Jimi Hendrix, so he's cool in my book.
we need to share more light on people with people working on their hobbies
I love this day in the life series.
