Life of an average sarariman-Part 1 'Before he even started'


Today is officially babycito's first day at work. Omedetooooo!!!

But before he started, he went drinking with his work-buddies and this is the result (see the picture).

He fell asleep on the sofa, at 10 pm, not knowing much about his own state. Then he woke up at 3 am, asking for water and somebody to talk to...yup he woke me up....he couldn't eat his breakfast and left with a headache and a terrible hangover.

I hope he's having a great first day, but I doubt it is so.

Congratulation darling, for becoming one of those sarariman, who smell on sake at 9pm train, get home and crush into the bed. No wonder everybody in this country sleeps all day, in the trains and at work.

It's sake magic.

well Natasa, you are right when you said " wonder everybody in this country sleeps all day, in the trains and at work." cause hopefully Japan is one of the only places in the world you will not be stolen when you are sleeping at the train. Cheers for that!!

Hey guys, thanks for the comments!
I really need some tips on how not to become a futsu sarari man Masa! Please help!
About sleeping... considering I have been getting up at 5 AM or before for the last 3 days, it's no wonder some people feel sleepy at 6 PM... I need some serious rest!

Vive la difference!

Toward no crimes have men shown themselves so cold-bloodedly cruel as in punishing differences of belief.
James Russell Lowell

Diversity is not about how we differ.
Diversity is about embracing one another's uniqueness.

True observation begins when one is devoid of set patterns.

If man is to survive, he will have learned to take a delight in the essential differences between men and between cultures. He will learn that differences in ideas and attitudes are a delight, part of life's exciting variety, not something to fear.

We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same.

The wave of the future is not the conquest of the world by a single dogmatic creed but the liberation of the diverse energies of free nations and free men.
