Thankful I Wasn't Born in Japan

I am honestly thankful I was never born in japan. Just reading about the work culture over there holy fuck >glasses have to be a certain height cant be higher than superiors >bosses will yell at you for taking a shit >being forced to work 14 hours with unpaid overtime >being forced to stay at work all night and take mandatory trips to the bar with other employees >it is considered disrespect to use vacation days or leave the office before midnight >everyone has to pack into a train like rats every morning

A sad-looking Pepe reads about Japan’s extreme work culture and feels relieved he was not born there. The joke exaggerates or lists harsh stereotypes about overwork, strict workplace hierarchy, unpaid overtime, mandatory drinking with colleagues, and crowded trains as reasons to be grateful. It is used as a reaction to disturbing or exhausting information about work and society. EN: A sad-looking Pepe reads about Japan’s extreme work culture and feels relieved he was not born there.
