Thank you for this post, Hive account@morimoritanbo - being a Japanese major myself with, at the time of graduation, a strong desire to work and live in Japan, it really echoes the thought process I went through as time went by and working for a Japanese company seemed less and less attractive.

This very Asian thing of 'marrying your company' and conscientiously putting in long hours at no pay is really not something I think anyone should put up with, but apparently many Japanese and South Koreans still seem willing to trade in the long hours for the safety that lifetime employment provides.

頑張って！
