NEW! REVISED AND EXPANDED EDITION OF THURESSON'S BELOVED MEMOIR
What happens when a young American unexpectedly finds himself thrust into the demanding world of a Tokyo "salaryman"? After author Michael Thuresson leaves his 9-to-5 California job for Japan, he becomes one of the few foreign employees in a large company that epitomizes the overworked salaryman lifestyle.
In this candid and entertaining memoir, complete with manga-style illustrations, Thuresson offers a humorous and revealing glimpse into Japan's ultra-traditional workplace culture. Follow his journey as he tackles endless meetings, late-night drinking and karaoke sessions, mandatory health checks, and the surreal experience of commuting-and occasionally napping-in a packed train.
Whether you've dreamed of working abroad or are simply curious about life in Japan, Thuresson's engaging narrative provides an insightful and entertaining look at immersing oneself in a new culture. Prepare to laugh, reflect, and be inspired as you join him on this unforgettable adventure.
