Wow what a heart touching story. She is such a tower of strength and courage.
> “I always make sure I am home by dinner. Whenever I get some free time, I love to drink wine with my friends who are also moms, or go to the gym.”
Not only a great humanitarian but a wonderful mother as well. She should get the best momist award.

Japanese are taught not to refuse overtime work, it will get them on this bosses bad list and bullied by fellow workers. Thats why I love being a foreigner, at 6pm all you see is my back going out the door. My boss asked me about it, I said pay me overtime and I'll stay, if not I'm gone at 6pm. Let the sheep pretend to work until the boss decides to leave. My boss has said to me before, some nights he stays until 10pm because he knows he can and also to see who leaves before him.
Posted in: Due to long working hours, I can't pay much attention to my children. I'm worried whether continuing this lifestyle is wise. However, I can't just quit, as I have to earn a living.

Right on Badsey! As my dearly sainted dad advised me "Wear a wet suit before taking the dive in". I only wish more dads would advise their sons and daughters of this. Condoms save many lives and prevent the spread of disease, they are not 100% effective, but it is better than nothing.

He will be forced to bow several times, apologize tearfully and beg not to be tossed aside. To which a major will ask him to show an open hand and smack it lightly with a ruler. Then he will be ordered to take his thumb from his mouth and get back to duty.

Not just the stench, but the fact nobody reported it or looked for the cause of it. I just have to shake my head some times.

Of course they are, many here drink away their sorrows on a daily basis. The number of passed out oyagi has incresed 2 fold in my home train station since September and increases in numbers on daily basis. I use they "drunken oyaji meter" to measure how things are. All of them have their Lawson bag in their lap.
