Yep, my friend works in a Japanese company and his CEO only makes 3x his salary.

It’s unfortunate that it also requires you to live within shooting range of North Korea and China. Because Japan is a nice vacation spot.

Don't forget appallingly long working hours.

That also, I’ve never received so many stares. Like I was a vampire from Twilight, sparkling in the sun, or had a huge booger in my nose.

I'm 6'-4, imagine the stares.

The rest of us live in shooting range of Russia or the US. It's not a question of if we will die, it's a question of when.
