Also most corpos in Japan will fire you if you have a side hustle. Even if it just a small YouTube channel. They see a side hustle as not being dedicated to the corporate mission.

As much as I love Japan (lived there for 3+ years), their corporate culture and neoliberal political establishment are fucking awful.

I blame post-war US occupation for introducing capitalism.
