Like having never lived there it's hard to know what's bullshit and what's real, but Japan especially seems like a nightmare place to try to make a living because of that. Pretty sure both those countries, in general, have much better working conditions, expectations, hours, workers protections, livable wages, etc, than the USA has. I think the stereotype of the overworked salary-man in Japan comes from the 80s or something, but has changed/improved significantly since, while in the USA we see a whole lot of folks having to work multiple jobs simply to survive. <cite>Yi_Long posted [p:969002711] in Name 3 Sta...
