    they're enthusiastic as well as optimistic now but would they feel the same toward their jobs 10-20 yrs. down the line? i wonder...

    amazing how enthusiastically people can thrown themselves into a lifetime of servitude

    nisegaijin -- of course not. You don't go to business school in Japan to actually learn business. Just to get a job at the right company, so they can teach you how to do business, they're way. Read somewhere that one of the major Japanese companies (forget which) does not expect a new employee to have any real decison-making authority for like 14 years after being hired. Given that, I don't know what these guys are so excited about. 14 years of near servitude does not seem exciting to me. But, then again, maybe they don't want any responsibility.

    spend 20+ years teaching people not to have any imagination and i suppose you shouldn't be surprised if they just follow the herd to the slaughter

    Business degrees? They're going to loose that morale very quickly. Also where are the girls?

    I know a nice park bench they can sleep on.

    I guess they mean it when they say "a bunch of grey suits." But what good is a rally going to do anyway?

    The girls are all out looking for work, of course!

    Guy near the top of the photo, in the middle is the only one with the right attitude.

    Enthusiasm is no substitute for actual ability and skills!
