The Japanese Office

August 6th, 2008 | by Masa |

I have to say they did such a great job. It’s even funnier, if you understand Japanese. Too bad, they didn’t put captions. Also, I wanted them to show more real weird things in Japanese office.  For example, in summer, people at company office in Japan set the room temperature at exactly 28 celsius degree, which is 82.4 degree in farenhight because the temperature is considered “healthy.”  Of course, in Japanese humid and hot weather, 28 degree is simply “warm” rather than comfortable.  I think everybody knows it, but nobody complain saying “Shikataganai” meaning “Nothing we can do about it.” So, sometimes in Japan, convenience stores like 7Eleven can be more comfortable environment than company office…

I think I’m gonna start watching the show again.
