Interesting video on strange, unwritten work rules of Japanese companies.

Here’s the list:

1. You must hand-write your resume
2. You cannot take your suit off – even when it’s hot (but the boss can)
3. You must attend after-work drinking parties if invited
4. You should be at work 1 hour (to 30 minutes) before the start of work
5. You must attend and participate in the cho rei morning greeting.
6. You cannot fire someone because they can’t do the job. (see the window tribe)
7. Unpaid overtime is common and you’re expected to do it (though becoming less common)
8. You do not leave on time (also becoming less common).
