@@chloeeng6811 Everyone assumes bosses seem to only exist to be cruel and condescending, but they have to remember, as much as Tetsuya loves this job, if his boss is mean or bad, his boss will lose all those workers. A good boss keeps everyone motivated while also improving them with tips so they can take thier place one day. It's like that manager said in the other restaurant themed video with the guy who drives around town, "Japan needs to give more opportunities for the youth. We need to stop that reputation of older people looking down on the younger and instead help build them up. That's the only way we'll move forward." Sides the boss seems like a chill guy. Wearing that cap. Not doing the whole "Suit and too good for you" look we usually imagine.

I know these extremely long work days are the norm in Japan but they just shouldn't be, guy wakes up at 6.30am to begin his work day which ends at 11/11.30pm, when you consider the time it takes for him to get home and such there's virtually no time left in that 24 hour span for yourself at all. I work a "9-5" Job, though most days I run over and at least 2 days in the week I'm working until about 8pm, my jobs stressful but I know that at least I have at least a couple hours each night where I can relax or do something to enjoy my time, I'm also compensated for my overtime which doesn't really happen in Japan. Credit to anyone working in countries where this is the norm, made of much stronger stuff than myself.

@amthatwas

Жыл бұрын

That time and effort isn't even the most expensive part. The cost for the buildings, all of that equipment, and for all of the ingredients used in the food is much higher than people tend to think. And then when you've got a walk-in fridge and a bunch of burners running all the time and such, utility costs are insane. And then even things like napkins, paper, and cleaning supplies really add up in cost. It's so expensive to run a restaurant (or any type of business).

thats exaclty how a boss should be, he tried what i assume is a very hard thing to do and make a squid ramen and the boss complemented the good things but informed him of the things he needs to improve in a constructive matter!
