Well, I've work for a temp job as a stocktaker in a Japanese
store before just for a few days.
But, Japs are really damn demanding workaholics, they demand the
best from you, or else you're fired.
They really "squeeze you dry". Their regimentation is worst than
NS.
I remember having to KNEEL stocktaking off some shelves' stuff for
bloody hours. I'll be reprimanded if I ever squat down. I can
understand their work culture but all the stocktaking is done
behind close doors! No customers is inside the store.
But if you done a good job, they'll definitely praise you lah.
