Day in the Life of a Japanese Waitress
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ก.ย. 2022
- A day in the life of a Japanese waitress in Tokyo working at a Japanese teppanyaki restaurant. This is a typical work day for a waitress in the Japanese food industry and the typical working hours in Japan. This is a look inside of Japanese work culture in Japanese restaurants. Working in Japan is quite unique and depending on the industry may be a bit different from job to job, but many of the jobs also share similar characteristics. The video follows Yuki in her typical japan work day from morning until the evening and everything that happens in between at work. She arrives at the teppanyaki restaurant when it opens and leaves when it closes, very typical for Japanese restaurants. Yuki is a waitress at Pandora, a Teppanyaki restaurant, Japanese style flat grill, which has been a local favorite since 1972 serving Kobe beef steaks and teppanyaki course meals. During her time working as a full-time waitress, she learned the importance of reading and anticipating the customers needs and acting beforehand. It’s a strong part of a Japanese omotenashi culture, a deep and honest form of hospitality, treating customers with respect without asking for anything in return. So for her, even a smile from her customers brings her true joy. One of the main reasons why in Japan tips at the end of the meal are very uncustomary. This among other things shared in this video is what makes working in Japan as a waitress very unique experience.

YEEEEEESSSSSSSSS~~~~~!!!! My favorite series!!! 🤠
Have you did a car dealership when yet cause I'm trying to find it I know you've got the car shot one but that's for like repairing cars until my like the actual car Dealer

Can you do a day In the life of a police officer
She's a waitress, social media in-charge, beverage inventor, cashier, dishwasher, and general manager of this restaurant. Gets up in the morning, returns home late in the evening, I have nothing but respect for her! Working in a Japanese restaurant from day to night is really no small feat.
and an otaku x)
Is a 16 hour shift typical?
@@colors6692 freak.
@@colors6692 I personally find her very attractive. Maybe not the same league as the delivery lady, but her work ethic and positive attitude are very attractive as well.
She's doing the job of a store manager or owner, I just hope she's being paid properly.
She is so impressive. calling her as just a waitress is a total understatement - she does the duties of every role from dishwasher to GM. Edit: I’m in the USA and the roles are usually segmented unless you’re a manager role or owner/family
I agree as well, she can literally start her own restaurant. She needs to learn to cook or hire one.
I am half Japanese and worked at a Japanese restaurant during high school. I was the same - I served tables, made drinks and dessert, dishwasher, and kitchen hand. Maybe it's a part of Japanese restaurant culture. I know that in the US, the roles seem to be a lot more segmented - e.g. a hostess and a server would have very different roles. Quite interesting
exactly, her role is more like an assistant restaurant manager in the hospitality industry rather than just a server.
@@kevinw543 yes i think usually a restaurant manager would partner with a chef to start a restaurant
@R B General Manager.
Hearing that the manager knows of her hobbies and supports incorperating them into the buisness is really incredible! amazing way to show her he cares and keep buisness flowing.
Small correction, its not the manager but I think the Owner is to be credited.
Mad respect for Yuki. She's definitely a hard working and intelligent girl powering through a LONG ASS shift. Hope she reaches her goals in the future
i couldnt have agreed more, that was in the past though
You should respect my anus too
You really have to mention girl powering?
@@ianc643 intelligent girl, powering
Why is it that a woman is referred to as a "girl" while a male of the same age is a "man"? Please grow up, evolve and stop your misogyny.
She is not just a waitress. She could manage her own business with all the tasks she used to do. Amazing!
managing her own business is a tall order,
not only you pigeonhole yourself into a multi million dollar debt to establish your business,
you also somehow have to figure out how to attract customer, and make food that people actually like.
not to mention, owning a restaurant business mean that you no longer have any private time left.
you should work harder than any normal human, or else,
those Rent, Electricity and Payroll gonna haunt you in your sleep.
owning a restaurant is a torture compared to working at the average 9-5 office job
Dyhjr
35K suicides in japan is understood now
what she does is many times more than a GM or Manager does in an American restaurant it really shows just how well they work and how much better they are treated compared to those in America.
She's a slave.
Can you try showing us the life of doctors or teachers in Japan? Great video as usual!
up
how about life of yakuza debt collector.
that might be a bit complicated due to privacy of students and patients
Teacher i agree!
@@sparklesparklesparkle6318 Yakuza I agree! 😂
The fact that she is back home at 11:40PM is insane
She's LITERALLY running the restaurant! From morning to night!!
Yuki is such a beast!
She seems more like a GM than just a server haha, she works so hard!
this is fucking sick, she's a human not a fucking robot and yet works as much as you can expect from robot, japanese culture is antihuman
I feel like that's all just played up for the camera to make foreigners think Japanese workers are extremely dedicated and to not get in trouble with their boss who might see the videos and see them slacking. I don't believe workers care that much about their low-paying jobs that require you to live in a laughably tiny apartment, especially in recent times with the exposure of how toxic the Japanese workplace is.
@@demetter7936 well i wish what you say is true but i've heard it's exactly like in the video. i mean pressure on those young people there is insane
The Hells Angels, the Comanchero motorcycle club and the Aussie Cartel heads are having talks while you are reading this about their growth in Australia and in Asia. Exterminating The Yakusa presence and their activities in the country would be considerably profitable for the Hells Angels, the Comanchero motorcycle club and the Aussie Cartel. The goal is to initiate their expansion over the Yakusa in Australia and to push it as far as in Japan. According to their plans, they are and will be supported by the Sinaloa Cartel for a part of the gains obtained and it would be done by the end of 2023. They told their mens to prioritize the capture, mostly for torture and interrogation before killing and for selling but to kill right away if they can not capture. This is what members having close ties with Hells Angels chapter leaders are talking about. Some members of the Hells Angels and of the Sinaloa Cartel had already start moving to Australia. The mens had been told to get the job done by any means, even by mass killing if needed. If you are directly involved let your comrades know so you can be prepared for what is happening before it is too late to prevent the bloodbath and your fall !
That's insane. I'm surprised she doesn't crash after getting home from a 13 hr day. Real dedication, patience, respect and stamina that she has.
I would definitely crash after that daily shift tbh. I'm not made for working over there lmao

@@zillsburyy1 20k right now, they were able to lower the number from 30k to 20k which at the end of the day is an improvement and impressive though to the fact that many countries like the USA are increasing in those kinds of numbers, so hopefully they can continue to advance
Right after college, I got hired in a corporate office.
I got a job waiting tables on the weekend and frequently worked a double shift on Sat and a split shit on Sun (11-8pm). Also, I’d got out a few nights during the week and sometimes on Sat night.
(And the work commute was 2+ hours for the corporate job.)
yeah, i work 8 hours with around 1:30 hours for breaks, and i feel exhausted after work... although that might also be because my job involves alot of moving and standing, and the fact that i start at 7 AM.
Damn 12+hour shifts and she pretty much does a little bit of everything in the restaurant except for cooking - what a hard worker and efficient as well, no time wasted.
I hope Yuki gets to achieve her dreams of owning a collaboration cafe. Best of luck to her!
how can people work so many hours? Man i'm a tall strong guy, but she can stand to work more hours than me.
The way she is working with no hassle efficiently!! And her uniform looks so sharp!
Right!! honestly i know i wouldn't be able to do this at all mad respect for her
Dear Paulo, my girlfriend works at a nursery home for elderly people who suffer from dementia. Her job is to completely take care of them. This is in The Netherlands and I would love to see how it is in comparison to Japan. Would you consider doing a 'One day in the life of an eldery caretaker'? Something like that. Thank you :)
thats a great idea especially considering the ageing population there!
Nice idea
Great idea but must be really tough since Japanese people are very particular about privacy
Japanese don't have great care homes, especially for handicap people.
Yup that would be a really important side to see of Japan
Her work ethic and dedication is amazing. Nothing but respect for Yuki
Whats more important is whether she get paid well for all the work she does.
No, it's not, it's extremely toxic and she earns a fraction of what she should earn. People are not meat bags meant to make a business owner richer.
yep very inspiring and motivation to me to work hard too
b-b-b-beast of a work ethnic. Bapa?
I will never understand how people can be so impressed by modern slavery, lol.
Mad respect, she is doing a lot as a “waitress”. Hope she enjoys the work: her manager and colleagues look nice as well.
Made respect tonmy anus too for defe. Cating regularly
She sleeps at 2am at night, and wakes up at 8am in the morning. That's extreme. Much respect!
Update: I'm saying "extreme" because 2am is the time where your organs need to relax etc... It's *usually* not recommended to stay up that late.
I don't think 6hours of sleep is that little, most of people I know sleep that much or less
@@himitsu30007 it is not healthy though
Just to remind you that the averge sleep time of Japanese is 7.5 hours. And Japan is already the top 10 least sleep time country in the world. So yeah, 6hours per day is an extreme in long run
I work night shifts. And sometimes my shifts will be 3 nights, a day off and then 2 nights after.
that day off where I can sleep normal makes it hard to sleep for the next night shift. So that next nightshift is usually me without any sleep lol. It is not fun at all!
6 hours is enough thou
I envy how Paolo can talk while smiling. It's almost like someone is whispering a funny joke to him in an earpiece, but he's trying to hold it in and not burst into laughter.
😂😂😂😂😂

I work the.same cashier manager inventory no to.dishwaschier.almost 6 months.I resign I have to work another planet big salary dollars
Lollll...I agree with your assessment
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 true and yet funny
She comes in to work at 10:30 am, restaurant closes at 11pm, helps with cleaning after then finally comes home by 11:40pm. Wow, that's such a long working hour. I hope she enjoys her restdays and reward herself. Its nice that she finds an anime activity that she enjoys.
Sadly that's the life of a lot of Japanese 😞
Theres a break after lunch hour but yeah i agree its hell of a working hours
this is the comment i 'm looking for ! she works for more than 12 hours everyday .
and she does not only waitress job !
Technically, Japan adopted a 40-hour workweek in the 80s. So either this restaurant is breaking labor laws, or she's getting overtime pay/more time off on other days. I hope it's the latter.
Yeah this seems insane to me. This robotic life is not for everyone that's for sure, mad respect. And I thought I had a tiny apartment!
Wow... waitress, cleaner, hostess, mediamanager, shopper, accountant... what else? I think it's too much... she deserves everything! Success to her
they're enslaved.. what do u expect xd
Capitalism slave conditions only this no time for yourself for Study and hangtime for friends Very sérios conditions for anyone there more Holiday this a type things what Japan need and less hora for Jobs(less hours more Jobs for everyone simples logic).
@@hussainali1340 Her salary is quite high actually. Her retirement is secured
@@hussainali1340 Better than enslaved to your fake god lmao
@@hussainali1340- Dude, sthu.
I'm currently working here in Japan for 4 months with the same job as her, but we are called "company employees (shain)". Not just "waitress". Our workload is very similar and NORMAL here in Japan. It's really hard but I'm glad that we're actually well-compensated here. What I earn here per hour is equivalent to what I earn in PH per day. So yeah, it's worth it, just tiring, very tiring :(

Can't help but respect her for remaining so cheerful and working for such a long shift five times a week
she's not -- trust me
It is typically 40 hours in total, so they come with long shift and short shift, most restaurants work have irregular shifts.
I worked for several restaurants in Japan.
it's on camera bro.....
she said 1 to 2 days off suggesting 6 day work week. She basically dreams of work, and wakes to go work. This is all alright if she is making decent money though but yea, i can't imagine this is great for mental health if she isn't saving money.
Edit: just checked japans minimum wage. It's £6.33. how is it that a number 3 country in terms of gdp has such a low floor of pay for workers whilst working them to the ground like this? No S^%$ the birth rate is in decline. Who has time and money for that??
@@leonardovieirafranco1501 i couldnt agree more. its such bullshit.
Man she's definitely doing more than a waitress. Hope she's compensated well for it (wouldn't be surprised if that's not the case, considering the japanese work culture). Hope to see her opening her own collaboration cafe!
its not but oh well she chose it 🤷♂️🙄

OMG... I got tired just by watching this video... We have to just respect the work culture of the Japanese... Absolutely mesmerizing and surreal... Hats off these young people
The wife and I are staying Kadoya Hotel, coincidentally next to this grill. We will be going tomorrow. I've been following your channel for over 5 years now, and our entire trip to Japan has been heavily influenced by all your great guides. Thank you Paolo to you and your wife for making so much of our trip to Japan memorable.
how was the restaurant ? updates?
@ctcarino It was fantastic. Went there for lunch. My wife and I got the set, and it was filling. There were only two workers (we may have been the first customers of the day). Beef was premium, and nothing was overly complicated that could take away from the Wagyu center piece. It was the most expensive meal we had in our Japan trip (less than what we'd pay in the States) but well worth the experience.
@@chon2096 How was the language barrier?? we will be in the area soon and considering eating there. Thanks
@@chon2096 Did you have to make a reservation? Or did you just show up right when they opened since your hotel was so close?
@@thelifeofbatteries2603 For the most part, the language barrier didn't hinder the experience. It's best to just be polite and point at the item on the menu. Saying thank you or hello is quite universal and appreciated when communication is difficult. :)
I used to work in the food and beverage industry before Covid hit us.
She could be a Restaurant supervisor from my opinion. Stock control, beverage making, hostess, server, ... every tasks in the front of house that she can perfectly handle them.
Respect to the Japanese working spirit !
And Thank you Paolo for this video !!!

These behind the counter videos are sure to make everyone’s day. Japan has notoriously long working hours, and it’s quite admirable to see people who are always willing to do what it takes to go beyond and overcome challenges along their way.

Well being? Yes job security but she’s working from 9am to 11pm 5-6 days a week. She’s fine with that because she’s Japanese and has that amazing work ethic. Westerners are lazy and wouldn’t last a week in her shoes.

Love this vid man and huge respect for hardworking people like her working in the food industry.
everyone work so hard there, thank you for the video, it really inspire me!
She sounds like a creative go-getter. Good for her! Thanks, Paolo. We never would have seen stuff like this without you doing it. I really like these 'day in the life' vids.
A big thank you to her and everyone at the restaurant for allowing us a glimpse into their daily routine. I know it wouldn’t be easy to go about normally with a guy and his camera following them around.
And a big thank you to you Paolo for making this series so that we can see what daily lives in Japan are like.
She is adorable! And such a hard worker. Great video!

Wow her work day is so long and Yuki does so much more than just waitressing duties. I hope the restaurant pays her well because she also does administrative and manage social media account.
yeah it seems her work is taking up all her time, how would she even find time or someone to date?? I mean would love to meet her, sadly distance :/
nahh -- they pay her shit -- she can barely afford her apartment and daily living -- I own a bar and its typical -- hourly to pay about 1000 yen and hour -- if you do salary expect much less
Japanese restaurants typically have very irregular shifts, total working hours for employee is 40 at most(unless doing overtime which is rare), so not different from other jobs.
@@user-jy3rx2bk9e Yuki gets to work at 10am, leaves at 11:30pm, 5 days a week so that's more than 40 hours.
@@Mwoods2272
It is very much standard that people work 4 hours in some days and 12hours in other days.
99% chances are she is working 40hours of irregular shifts rather than doing 2 hours of overtime everytime. I worked several restaurants in Japan and never seen single cheff/waiters/wairess over 40hours unless manager.
It is pretty rare that restaurants have 30minutes+ of overtime as they most certainly have closing hours.
I like how neat and orderly everything is
what a wonderful experience to be on the restaurant checking all the very details of Japanese working ethics and values, thanks for showing it . thanks Paolo your are great!
This is insane, the workload is beyond what I could take. I truly hope she achieve her dreams.
It is admirable but it is not a way to live.
@opzz xsin How was your daily routine at work? Was it as heavy as hers?
@@cesarebachelli Maybe, but I don't think it is completely out of the question that someone may enjoy this lifestyle. There are all kinds of people out there. Improbable, but not impossible!

true man, just watching this vid make me feel tired
This young lady has got her “stuff” together and works hard and is very organized doing it. A lot of personal pride in doing her best at it no matter the task. She is AWESOME!
Fantastic as always Paolo. Mad respect for Yuki's work ethic and general wonderfulness
the level of detail and craft is amazing
So much respect.
She's definitely an all-rounder who also represents her business and industry extremely well!
I think hers is one of the few that's more tiring out of all that has been featured so far. Ridiculously long hours and lots of miscellaneous tasks aside from the customer service itself which is no joke on its own. And like only less than a couple hours to enjoy herself at home before getting 6hrs of sleep. No wonder she kinda had a hard time waking fully at the start of the video. Great respect to her and to all the waiters/waitresses out there.
I love these series. I am quite fascinated with the Japanese culture and way of living. I think they are one of the most disciplined people. They work hard and they have high standards and i respect that. Well done!
I totally love these day in life videos from Japan
Thanks a lot paulo
I look forward to the follow up of Yuki running her own restaurant, it's pretty clear she knows every part of the business inside out 😆

According to their plans, they are and will be supported by the Sinaloa Cartel for a part of the gains obtained and it would be done by the end of 2023. They told their mens to prioritize the capture, mostly for torture and interrogation before killing and for selling but to kill right away if they can not capture. This is what members having close ties with Hells Angels chapter leaders are talking about. Some members of the Hells Angels and of the Sinaloa Cartel had already start moving to Australia. The mens had been told to get the job done by any means, even by mass killing if needed. If you are directly involved let your comrades know so you can be prepared for what is happening before it is too late to prevent the bloodbath and your fall !
I am speaking with bias and from my point of view which is very influenced by my society... but working 5 to 6 days at that many hours seems inhumane. I am happy that she has strong interests like anime which give her something to do outside of work though. She seems like such a nice person who'd love to talk about her interests! Paolo, you should keep up with her and check out the collaboration cafes and such. I hope she follows her dreams :)
I think she probably does long shifts and short shifts I don’t think she will be working 12 hourS a day 6 days a week
@@andrewlee9286 I hope so! Even speaking as someone from the Philippines whose work culture sucks, this one is just one to many tasks for a waitress. I hope she gets paid well.
Japan's service industry, including the restaurant industry, is considered inefficient by economic experts. However, Japanese services are of high quality. Increasing efficiency would probably reduce quality. This is a difficult problem.
@@andrewlee9286 im in japan, being japanese. i dont think so. cus long/short shift for a restaurant is uncommon unless u are a part time worker.
@@Ts-fp5sd That's kinda sad to know. She's overworked. It may not be visible on her physical appearance but that's not healthy at all.
Japanese people are hard workers with an attitude and outlook.❤ love your videos, so informative
Very much pleased to meet someone like this
I am amazed how organized Yuki is, while working this long and hard! I hope her pay is good, every restaurant - or company, really - is lucky to have such a dedicated employee
are you kidding -- this is expected -- this is japan --not ______ (insert country name here)
It looks like she’s one of maybe two waiters so I’m sure compensation is good enough with their current economy.
@@nawab256 Nope. She makes significantly less than western waitress if you consider everything: number of hours, responsibility, work performance/responsibilities, and cost of living.
Waitresses earn pretty bad in Japan compared to other non tipping countries. One upside is Japan is super cheap including housing.
@@DanKxxx I thought housing prices are way up?
I love how excited this guy sounds over the clean drain, it really is the little things sometimes 😄
Nice comment, I noticed that too - yes, life is really just little things.
what do u mean? i dont get it
@@Ts-fp5sd I believe the point of the commentator (Lily) and my comment are about how we often overlook the small things in life.
Everyday life is not about saving children and cats from burning buildings.
The chef in the video cleans his drain - such a small gesture - but it reflects his attitude toward cleanliness, his cooking, how his patrons will enjoy his food because he cares about the small details.
The little things in life matter.
I enjoy watching this series! I hope you can make a day in the life of a kaigofukushishi too. Thanks Paolo and kudos to you & Maiko for always giving great content.
Loving this series keep it up! Enjoyed the one about anime figure sculptors!
How can she handle all these tasks as such a young lady? So much respect to her.
she's an adult
she has to.
or else you starve, thats capitalism at his best.
Works more than your boss, destroy your own body while doing it and gets paid only the enough to survive.
This is just a typical asian people does 😁
@@ShaferHart young adult
Isn’t she 30 already?
Awesome! I worked as an Expeditor at a restaurant for 6 years so content like this always fascinates me. Seeing how a restaurant from a different country works and operates is exciting to me, now I'm hoping for a 'Day in the Life of a Japanese Line Cook'.
i love your vids, i have a passion in opening a restaurant very soon, hopefully these videos are helpful
It's incredible the amount of work that this young lady is responsible for carrying out. My sincere respect for her, I hope that she accomplishes her goals in life.
I love this series ,been waiting for a minute . Thank you for delivering and for all your hard work Paolo ❤🙏
I love your channel Paolo. Amazing videos like that! Best regards from Brazil!
Loved this video so much!!
Great episode!! I hope Yuki gets her cafe one day. They're so much fun!
100% sure... what a girl! PS: great idea for this channel to comeback and visit the same people in X-years see what has happened to them!
Thank you. Someday, we will create a place where many people can smile and support each other. I respect people who make things and wish them happiness. (From Yuki)
Another great podcast as usual!! I check every day to see what is new with you. Even though I have lived in Japan for 12 yrs plus, always find it enjoyable!! Thanks!
I like how japan respects all kinds of job. Your " A day in the life" series is just amazing😀
She is highly motivated and has a great heart, she does do a lot of work but we see her without a lot of complaints, learn from her! excellent girl!
I look forward to each and every one of these, they're my favorite series. There is just something great about the rundown of a typical day in the life of and I enjoy my meals as I watch them
In the Philippines, working beyond your usual tasks shows "MALASAKIT". It generally means that you show compassion and care for whatever it is you're doing and who you are doing it for. It's amazing to see how humble service workers have ingrained this virtue despite the taxing workload.
Thank you for this series Paolo!
How's the salary?
@@prypat6601 The salary here is extremely low.
@@prypat6601 Despite the fact that wages in the Philippines are extremely low, the companies here have high qualifications. For example, if you want to work as a cashier, you will ALMOST always see in job postings that they prefer someone with a degree in business-related courses.
@Christian Reyes That's very true! The salary in the Philippines is very low and expenses are very high
The Hells Angels, the Comanchero motorcycle club and the Aussie Cartel heads are having talks while you are reading this about their growth in Australia and in Asia. Exterminating The Yakusa presence and their activities in the country would be considerably profitable for the Hells Angels, the Comanchero motorcycle club and the Aussie Cartel. The goal is to initiate their expansion over the Yakusa in Australia and to push it as far as in Japan.

The Modern and Great Version of Japan Video Topics. Keep it up man! 😊❤🇵🇭
One of the Greatest things about Japanese education is the cleanliness they're taught and the respect for someone else's efforts, like cultivating vegetables and dairy so you don't have to do it. I actually love this about any culture and our country really needs to get on the same boat. It's hard process for overly privileged kids but its possible and we can start with the parents, by making them more assertive and less afraid of their childrens backlashing
Love to see the hustle and seeing so much more being done aside from what you’d typically expect! Great video!
Yuki is extremely amazing! She does so much for the restaurant, it's incredible!! Great job, Yuki!!!
Thank u! Such authentic videos
This was so cool to watch! I love that her boss also encourages her to come up with new menu items like that drink!
I hope Yuki’s dream comes true ❤
I love watching your "Day in the life" series! I always get a blast of joy whenever i get the notifications haha. Keep making amazing videos, Paolo
