@kiriup8188 Kiri up, that is nice that you are trying to understand Gordon and stand up for what he says. However, I've had comment exchanges with him 2 or 3 times over the last 3 years or so, and know that his experience is very different from normal Japanese society, or else he is just gaslighting.
.
For example, you write: "His own experience there has showed him that most parents leave work at 6 and often go to be with their families instead of being "work slaves" with no life."
That is just totally untrue of the vast majority of Japanese male office workers.
Please come to Japan. Ride on the trains out of the big cities to the suburbs. There is a big crush around 5pm when many of the part-timers get off, and also for many mothers rushing to day-care to pick up their kids. Then there is another big crush pretty late, around 9 or 10pm, when male office workers (a few females too), finally can go home. Many fathers I know don't eat dinner until after 10pm. I've talked with many kids who told me they didn't know much about their fathers, as they almost never see them except on Sundays, and then they are usually taking naps on the sofa and watching TV all day, or else going out to play golf etc.
.
To try and judge Japanese society by Western standards often does not reveal relevant results.
.
The company must be number one in the lives of all those who want a full-time job with a company. I consider it to be soul-crushing.
