Day in the Life of a Japanese Panko Factory Owner
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 тра 2021
- A day in the life of Panko Factory Owner in Tokyo Japan and insight in the typical Japan working hours for someone who runs a panko factory. Also, you'll see the working hours of Japan factory workers. We follow the factor owner, Sho, from morning until evening to see what his Japan work day and work life in tokyo is like as well as how he spends his time before and after work. He has a 10 minute commute to his Japanese office, which is in the factory itself. I hope you enjoy his day and the Japanese work culture in this video.
150 years ago, from the Meiji Period Japanese used sliced bread to make panko, a Japanese word PAN meaning bread, and KO meaning powder. Japanese chefs started using sliced bread as a cheaper ingredient than overseas bread crumbs commonly made from crushed biscuits or crackers.
Sho is a 3rd generation owner of the NAKAYA PANKO FACTORY a family-run business started in 1948 by his grandfather. It’s the only truly Made-in-Tokyo Panko factory, as they are the only ones who bake their own bread in factory to create their panko, a flaky bread crumb commonly used as the crunchy coating in fried Japanese food. Their panko is so highly appreciated amongst Japanese chefs, that it’s used by 60% of the Tonkatsu restaurants listed in the 2021 Japan Michelin Guide as well as small mom & pop stores and even chain restaurants like Gyutan Negishi. In his industry, it’s widely believed that if you use Nakaya’s Panko, the restaurant will likely become popular.

Hi Paolo! Please do a day in the life of a JSDF(Japanese self defense force) soldier XD
Nice job on this video it’s very informative of where our Pablo comes from
How about one about a anime voice actor
Paolo quick question, what was the name of the company that sponsored your videos it sells Japanese treats and sacks around the world?
great videos. I don't care what a day in the life it is, but they are all interesting and I enjoy them.
The owner cleans de bathroom, goes out delivering, answers, receives and visits customers, that's a really boss!
That’s not a boss. That’s a leader.
Leader bro
Respect!
yeah and now i have a crush on a guy i've only seen once in a video
sure he's hard working af, but he doesn't seem like one of those entrepreneur-linkedin-listeningtoaudiobooksat5xspeed-chodes
he actually seems loveable
A great young entrepreneur
"A Day in the life of..." is the best series I've ever seen on UA-cam. No doubt.
Same!! I enjoy them so much ❤️❤️
W love this comment
facultar
Si
How much did he pay to to write comments?
I’m a small business owner in the US. I keep coming back to this video. As my wife and I prepare to have our first child in July, it’s inspirational to see a man manage a company, take care of his customers, and still make time for his family.
Thank you for creating this content.
Hope your child born safe and healty man
But he sleeping 4.5 hours a night!
He's not making time for his children. I hope you prioritize your family instead of cleaning the toilet
Congratulation on your first baby🤗🤗🤗
He might be a workaholic
"Did you sleep?"
"Yes, I slept a lot."
Sho: Sleeps at 11:30PM, wakes up at 4 AM.
If 4hr 30mins is a lot, I wonder how much sleep is too short for him.
5 hours* is still very little.
I usually sleep about 3-5 hours and weekends I try to sleep in till noon but I always get woken up a bunch of times because of my kids lol I don't work anymore and still have trouble sleeping
what is sleep
Clearly, he is working for the future of his family. Not for himself though, he'll probably die young if this is his "regular" sleep schedule.
Its Japanese and discipline. Nothing come close in beating them.. Not even Chinese.
He practically owns a factory but he doing deliveries, cleaning the bathroom and having meetings/marketing with clients but on top off all of that, he comes home and shares the choirs with his wives and spends time with his kids. My respect for the guy 📈
typical Asian dad lol
Ultra respect you mean
@@justicewarrior9187 regular amount respect lets not overdo it
@@RandomUserX99 not my dad
who else got ptsd when they were listening to the alarm clock
These Day in the Life videos always cheer me up so much. They are therapeutic, it is so wonderful and inspiring to follow the daily life of highly talented workers. Makes me want to do my best in my own job.
Qué lindo encontrarte por acá Kiki, te quiero
So true
Same
same, they give me the best vibe, just laying in my bed watching how many different lives people are leading out there
Yuuup same, Paolo has great energy ! :D
His giggle as he admitted he loved ramen was absolutely adorable lol
Goes to sleep at 11:30 pm and wakes up at 4 am every morning, oh man that's brutal. I really respect his dedication and love for his work. Can't imagine a factory owner in my country cleaning the toilets or doing delivery.
Ifs why japan is successful
@@gorillachilla Its why Japan has a rapidly shrinking population.
@@nightelflevel5062 thats not why stop assuming nonesense you ignorant person. japanese people just arent having as many kids as they use to. cost of living is high and because they care about the life of the baby they rather not bring one into the world if they cant afford to take care of one properly.
I had a schedule like that for a year and a half. Idk how i survived honestly, NOT FUN.
I respect his dedication and his love for his work, too but he also sounds like a workaholic and like he doesn't have a good work/ life balance. But I guess that it's just a different culture in Japan.
It always gets me how many shots you get of a person waking up! Are you literally there at 4am capturing their morning routine from every angle!?!
same thoughts 😂
I think the morning shots are taken by Maiko
He might ask them to do it at another time of day? Make em reenact them? Not sure
I think he films the beginning of the day the night before or something then meets them in the morning
There's one Day in the Life video where you can see the person's phone and it is much later in the day.
I'm so happy to hear that they give the crust to animals instead of throwing it away
10/10
It's my favorite part of bread. I was really waiting to see what they did with it. Glad it didn't go to waste.
My parents have a chinese restaurant, and for takeout, we give 2 slices of bread from the entire loaf. However, the last slice(the butt haha), we give it to people who will use it to bake pudding.
😯😯
I was happy to hear that everything doesn't go to waste (well... considering how the bread is digested hahahaha). It's good that they don't throw it out.
Kinda surprised they just give it away, seems like they could package and sell it. Lots of people, me included, love the crust and would gladly buy a bag of it especially if it was cheap.
So much to learn from Japanese People. What an amazing culture. A factory owner cleaning toilet, organizing things, working along with other employees, driving delivery truck, etc. Wow! Truly humble, down to earth and hard working people.
And there is Indians why their caste system
But the poor man works 12 hours and only sleeps for 4.5 hours. Not only does he work that much, but his wife still has to work full time as well. Not only should he not have to work that hard, but if he does have to work that many hours he should be earning enough for his wife to stay at home and take care of all the chores so he has more time to sleep and play with his kids. Very sad.
@@purelysmetalnightcore or they wanted to live their lives like that. Not every woman wants to be a house wife and not every man has a problem with helping his wife with chores and the kids even after working all day 🙄🙄🙄
@@mel9823 I can't imagine wanting to live a life where you have such minimal time to play with your own children. That was my main point.
@@purelysmetalnightcore well guess what, it’s not your life to imagine. And you clearly didn’t hear Paolo say that he was gonna play with his kids after dinner. They make it work. It’s not for you to figure out.
I worked for a Japanese company in TX. In the beginning there were about 200 Japanese personnel there to train and support us. During my time with them I picked up Japanese customs, formalities our Japanese plant managers would clean the cafeteria and main hall. I absolutely love Japanese formalities.
I can't imagine a building or business owner even picking up a brush to do anything with it and there he is scrubbing the toilet. Really respect this guy and many business owners in Japan.
instead of merely "respecting" it, we can also imbibe such values in our culture. Such practices have a lot of personal benefits, especially ego-wise. So beautiful and humble a practice!
welcome to japan
Japanese are just built differently man

There's a reason behind the word karoshi. I don't really think this is a healthy type of living at all.
He's doing more in one day than what I did in 24 years of living.
AHAHAHAHAHA😭😭😭😭
big man 24
That's the difference between asian, in particular japanese people and the west. All i do at 22 years old is studying and going out with friends
What you did in 24 years, he did it in one day. LOL !!!
🤣🤣🤣
Bro is the owner and works organizing, cleaning and effectively working. That's nice, much respect
Owner is doing sales as well as delivery.. grt passion for his work
These "A Day in the Life" are so therapeutic from the pandemic depression. Thank you, Paolo.
no other way to describe it :)))))
Agreed!
They definitely are!
Not unless it's really meant. Have you seen anyone with zero enthusiasm in their voice but a huge smile? It's forced and bad acting.
@@painkiller256256 The day in the of a Japanese butcher guy comes to mind. He seemed very genuine
His day looks more productive than my entire life....
Same lmao
Basically watched the whole video while on the toilet, thought maybe I should clean my own toilet too after the video.
Conclusion: The toilet was not cleaned
Same
@@dariosanchez7699 You bring great shame upon your family. Go back and clean the toilet
@@micoromico My ancestors will not be pleased
Started the video with no knowledge about what a panko is. Ended with desire to work in a panko factory
I often complain about how tough my 9/10 hour long work day is as a manager here in Canada. But after seeing Paolo's series on Japanese lives, I can't complain anymore.
“Day in the life of a” makes your day go from 0 to 100 real quick.
SUPER TRUE
so true bro
Agreed
Yesss
Mood
Goes to bed at 23:30. Wakes up at 4:00.
"How did you sleep?".
"I slept a lot."
That's a lot of time to sleep for East and SE asia, since most people would start a day at 05.30 or 06.00 am
@@riz.ki10 wtf where are you from? 4.5 hours of sleep is "a lot" in absolutely nowhere in the world. Yes, several East and SE Asian countries get little sleep, but data shows that its about 6+ hours of sleep, significantly more than the 4.5 hours of sleep in this case.
@@riz.ki10 4hrs and 30min is a lot of sleeping time for Asians? Are you sure about it??
@@Msbouncy456 Indonesia, I have a restaurant so yeah i need to prepare everything at 4 am to go to the market, restaurant open at 07.30 am, and closed at 00.00.
And for salary man, most of them go to work early at 5am so it's not to crowded in the commuter or bus.
Even when I'm in middle and high school i used to go to school at 5.45 am, since the school start at 6.30am until 3pm. After school i still need to study at private tutors until 8.30pm.
And it's very common in here 🤷🏻♂️
@@calvinsc5105 yes 🤷🏻♂️
Such a massive difference here in the states vs Japan when comparing business owners. I own my own business here in the states and operate it from my home, and I’ve been exposed to other business owners with larger corporations, who literally sit in their penthouse all day and never get involved with their business. I can never be like that, as my business grows, I’m up to 10 employees and I am involved daily. This is refreshing to see
The level of respect in japan....just insane. This is what the entire world needs. I have always been in love with japanese culture for years.
This man has my respect. He works hard, helps out at home and stays humble. This is what we mean by sharing responsibility in a relationship when both partners work full time. May God bless him and his family.
I think that even if one of the partners isn't working fulltime it's important to help out with chores. It strengthens your relationship because you're doing things together, including the things you might not like. It also frees up time for the both of you to spend more quality time together, or with the family. Of course, one can expect the parttimer working or unemployed partner do more of the chores, but still.
@@targun6063 I was wondering why does his wife work full time when he is a factory owner with a huge supply chain , not often does this happen especially when they have little kids
@@thecapatalistpropagator_9470 Maybe because she wants to work full-time instead of staying at home all day, just like he wants to work full-time.
@@chiaraippoliti iiresponsible towards the kids , if one partner earns this much its pretty much justified that other leaves her job . This is Japan we are talking about , one of the lowest birth rates , it needs kids !
@@thecapatalistpropagator_9470 How is that irresponsible? You end up with more money for the development of the kids. Besides, kids aren't home alone all day. They're at school and probably have other extracurricular activities. Growing up with my single mom, we never had any issues even though she worked full-time.
Wakes up at 04:00 AM, goes to bed at 11:30 PM, stays super productive during the day. Is he even a human? 🤯
How do you function on so little sleep. Wtf
He gets his energy from doing what he loves and living his life the way he wants to everyday probably, it’s amazing. Plus his daughters are so cute anyone would be re-energised playing with them
I literally have the same sleep cycle It's more forced than by choice when you work 14-16 hour days then still have shit to do at the house. Been keeping this up for 6 days a week for 10 years now and yeah I'm always tired, rich but tired. He's lucky to have a wife to come home to that cooked for him that's a hour out of my day right there cause I love cooking and make everything from scratch.
Productivity gurus : We told you the benefits of waking up at 4 am
Some people enjoy it. My mom did this for years. And I would always be like 👀😳
Whaaaaa..... I always thought panko came from unsold bread from bakeries or simple byproducts from bread making. So they make perfectly shaped bread just to be shredded? Amazing!
I wish I could sleep for 4.5 hours a day without becoming a zombie.
its a scientific fact that 8 hours or 7 hours sleep is Maximum you have to get below this may damage your body. Ex Sap company CEO was a indian who worked for his company so hard. Profit was at top. He used to sleep only for 4 hours and focused on Gym and his family in free time. However he died from heart attack when he was 41. doctors said it was cause of his sleep. Sleep is necessary
@@birinderwarraich1179 sleep is very necessary. It’s just as necessary as drinking water
Eating well and exercising regularly help a lot with your energy reserves. You only need 4.5 hrs if you take good care of yourself
@@kutieleeklips no, If you take 4.5 hours of sleep For your life you will die at the age of 45 by heart attack 7 or 8 hours sleep is maximum with exercise etc
@@birinderwarraich1179 not really i get 4-6 hours of sleep at night and i am fine i absolutely wont die early also my dad is the same and he is about to be 50
Paolo has such a positive vibe that we almost forget the dude in the video is working 12 hours a day.
Wakes up and leaves before his family is awake... eats dinner alone. These vids have made me realize I don't want to work in Japan.
@@CHAOS88100 I think is like this in most countries if you are a owner of a small business....
He wakes up at 4am and goes to sleep at 11:30pm. That's 4 hours of sleep! Crazy.
@@BBOYkiingKONG The man is a machine!
Well, in some countries that´s the reality of work. im not a business owner and i was working for 10 hours at day >.
He doesnt look like an owner. He is so simple looking and very humble. In my country, factory owner like him looks so rich and unapproachable..salute to this guy. Well deserved success to his factory.
If you own the whole thing, this guy's mindset is what you must have - leading by example. The people hired by large corporations to manage a factory often act the way you say because they don't know nearly as much and rely heavily on delegations to do their job - over time, they become more bossy and arrogant.
Same like my country. Some small factory owner alrdy driving Mustang GT, Bentley, Ferrari and act like they own the economy.
@@alohasnackbar3544 lmao.. i wanna be a cocky arrogant shitty owner will it go bankcrupt? HAHAHA
He probably gets his frustration out by listening to his records. I could tell right away that he was into hardcore punk and Emo just by seeing the mat on his turntable
Non solo nel tuo paese
The picture he drew still hanging up there..........my hearttttttttt!!!!! T.T
This guy deserves every part of his success! Hard working man! So inspiring
He did more in 2 hours at 4am than I do in 2 days.
😂😂😂
Let alone 2 years
same buddy :(
So you are a lazy bum or your job is just not that demanding? :D Both you vou could change if you really feel that way....
@@ahaha8 /s
Hard working man. Even makes deliveries himself and doesn't just let the other workers do it. Those are the best bosses. and he seems kind.
Yes, I was noticing that
He kinda look dead and tired inside tho
@@raymakbutwithmoustache6413 hahahaha 🤣🤣
Nah. That means his business may not afford an extra driver
@@sbtopjosh4098 i dont think thats the case, they mention 60% of tokyo michelin restaurants used his panko
Ima be honest at first I thought Paolo was a little weird but now I love this dude, the amount of love he puts into his videos and the fact that he doesn’t dub the voices of the people but dubs his voice just shows respect for the person and care for us the viewers
LMFAOO
I really love that detail in which he teaches his clients on how to maximize the potential of his products, that level of care and mutual understanding when it comes to the usage of his product really is just the cherry on top
The Panko factory owner, The Butcher shop owner and the Ramen Chef all look like brothers and they are in the same age range.
Was about to say their all long lost brothers
They should definitely meet up! Haha
Long hair, moustache & beard.
Fr 😂
@A curious Jaggi ……chilllllll.
Why is watching someone working hard and being competent so mesmerizing?
Positive vibe, I guess
From personal experience, not enough competence exist. It was just nice to watch a hands-on leader that's not afraid to get dirty and so personable.
Especially if you live where most of the company are manage from incompetent people.
For example here in Italy,the boss would (and never) clean the bathroom,it's one of the job for trainee.
@@Masterblack1991 The world definitely lacks quality in leadership. You think any of the top countries on the planet would bother to invest in training better men. Be safe out there brother!

The fact that a factory owner did a delivery, organizing and even cleaning the toilet is awesome. Rarely to see an owner of a factory did that in my country
Same in the USA a factory owner would never clean the toilet
Yeah and then they wonder why they cant relate to their employees
@@Fubuuuuu I don't even think a Japanese workaholic would want to clean US toilets lol
The most exciting part of this video is reading the comment explaining how amazing it is!!
ngl, when I am watching this series, its like a TV show. great work
Was nobody else shocked to hear that this super hard working guy wakes up at 4 a.m. while Paolo says he goes to sleep at 11.30 p.m.? This guy does 12 hour shifts each day on only 4h30 of sleep time :o
my thoughts exactly
I think it's for the video, did you notice how his wife didn't appear? maybe she didn't want to, so he was like ''he wakes up at 4 in a separate bedroom'' and ''he doesn't make it home for dinner with his family'' and ''he probably goes to sleep 11:30''
@EpsilonGoods lame b8 m8. i r8 1/8.
@EpsilonGoods That's frankly the most pathetic effort way to put on a bait that I've ever seen.
It's normal in East and SE asia 🤷🏻♂️
12:16 I was very shocked at how he would consult with his customers on how to make their food come out better with his panko. Most food suppliers just drop it off but this man sits with them to develop their cooking methods. Seriously impressive.
If the customer knows how to use your product, then that raises the demand for your product (which is what you want if you're a business owner). Pretty logical to me.
Well, most food suppliers don´t have the owner delivering the goods themselves. And most regular workers are neither interested in their workplace´s development as long as they got their paycheck (unless they got a pay raise or reward) nor as knowledgeable as the owner.
Hey thanks for sharing this is awesome I’m from Australia I love watching anything to do with Japanese culture very interesting and thank you
I love learning new things and this series never fails me. Thank you for that! I was always under the impression that panko was made by spraying dough against very hot steel plates and seeing loaves of bread being shredded, took me by surprise. Thank you again, especially for highlighting the daily routine and cultural practices of other countries. 🙏
The traditional method shown in the video, originated during the mid-1800s (The Meiji Period). That method utilizes Shokupan bread which is baked and processed into Panko flakes.
The electrode method that you're referencing, was popularized after WWII. It is primarily used by industrial factories to produce mass quantities.
@@restaurantman Thank you for clearing that up for me! 🙏🙏🙏
I always know it's going to be a good day when I see a day in the life video in my sub box
same here XD i enjoy the video making , hope to visit you in tokyo

Except when ur employer pays u minimum wage but expects maximum effort.
@@samuraimecha1070 what?
Same
He is the owner of a highly successful factory yet instead of pulling up a Ferrari or labmorghini at work, he cleans the toilets.
I know right? Really shows humility of someone, not just for show and tell.
Even surprised he doesn't have his own private office.
Shows why he's successfull
Definitely not American…
I imagine it helps to motivate the employees. If the freaking boss cleans the toilets, you should also help out
Oh we love a hard-working and dedicated husband and father.
And as someone who LOVES baked goods and fried foods, I thoroughly enjoyed this video!
Does anyone else just really want to take a bite out of one of those loaves of bread? They look so friggin' fluffy!
I’m always just wondering how he meets these people and gets their permission to film their daily life 😂
I was wondering the same. I’m guessing some may even contact him because this series is so well known.
Friends and families。Japanese being conservative it’s hard to get permission to film their lives. Kudos to Paolo
yeah i mean its kinda mad how he gets to film all this, super intersting though
Having 2 million subs helps, its basically free advertising
his wife has many contacts i think
One thing I love about Japanese culture is the boss isn’t high and mighty. He’ll wash the toilets. Do deliveries. Whatever it takes. There’s that humility which other cultures lack
Small businessmen are all like that. You gotta learn the ropes yourself before you even think of teaching to your employees. It's not a racial or national thing.
That's not true. The bosses in many Japanese corporations and companies are treated like gods and if you disrespect them (even just a little bit) you can get fired. Furthermore, with your logic the Japanese emperor or prime minister clean their own toilets. Small business owners in every country are mostly humble, it's not a Japanese thing.
@@finlandjourney6065 not all lol ive encountered many arrogant small business owners in america
@@calicofishy haha Americans are just a different species
I hate to break it to you, but the hierarchy at workplaces is very important in Japan. Plenty of people in the top of that hierarchy let it go to their heads and act all high and mighty.
i always love how these owners of factories or big business live a very comfy life without luxury doing normal stuff!! they live a humble life
I love the Japanese these guys can be as simple as it can be, no showoff, no bragging, no swagger, no big arrogant talking, no fake deep voice, no unnecessary Bentleys Ferrari's or gated nonsense yet successful,did you see his bed on the floor such a great guy .thank you paulo I love your videos, sometimes I wakeup in the middle of the night to watch them when I suddenly loose my sleep
I need a "day in the life of paolo"

Man absolute respect for this dude!He wakes up works out makes breakfast for his family goes to work for so many hours and cleans toilets organizes shelfs even tho he could tell people to do it and to top it of he looks like 33! Massive respect.
Sounds like typical overwork. He goes to bed at 11:30 and wakes up at 4 am. That's 5 1/2 hours of sleep. That is not enough. Your body doesn't work like that. How many years is he going to run at this level before burnout occurs?

Wow, a business owner that is the first to arrive, last to leave, does the manual work in his factory without complain, regularly communicate with his employees and even does delivery and sales. Much respect!
And he even cleaned toilet
His voice (Sho-san's) is very pleasing to listen to, I personally could fall asleep to it. His voice also reminds me a bit of Kenma from Haikyuu but just a bit higher, I honestly don't know why.
there is something calm about the construction of japanese homes. looks welcoming and cozy
Can't believe this guy is only 43 with a lack of sleep & 12 hours working still manage to look like 30s.Hope his business go well.He seem humble & passionate business owner
He must actually love what he does. That way he's not stressing hard all the time probably. That makes a huge difference I've noticed. Working hard for a job you hate vs working for a job or business you love
@@JohnM0rris when you are motivated working isn't the hard part, but the sleep absolutely is. you can push through the fatigue but damn it is not fun at all and you feel like garbage
Basically you need REM sleep the most (like 3 and a half hours per night). When you have highly precise schedules each day your body can adapt so you still get the needed REM sleep. But anything over healthy levels of daily stress will crumble this.
I'm shocked about it too, but I wonder if computer screens kill our energy and our looks. Noticed that people who get 5 hours of sleep are barely on computers.
there are people with a special genetic condition which makes it unnecessary to sleep for a long time. Prolly he is one of them...
Finally, someone without the typical iPhone alarm
I don't use any iPhone alarms, they are unpleasant! I use Stairway To Heaven as an alarm tone and Whole Lotta Love as a ringtone
I have the Dexter theme tune to wake me up.
Just my thoughts!! Haha
😂😂😂
I was thinking the same
Thank you , Sir, for the lively and informative videos. I really enjoy them. Warm and respectful greetings from Belgium...
I can absolutely feel the smell of that factory. the dough has such a rich smell. I love it
Yoooo, those two little girls coming say hi to dad after a long day of work melted my heart. I love this series!
Am I the only one who watches day in a life series of Paolo just to motivate myself to go work?
Nope your not alone
I do it to calm myself and be happy because japan is calming to me
i am xD , im searching for the answer from my own question , my question is how do they get so much energy?
Where the energy come from?
As someone who is a baker by trade and has worked in Bakeries for my entire working life it's funny to see how familiar their process and bakery equipment is. At least I know now that if I ever move to Japan I can probably find work in a bakery there.
This is one of my favourite series on UA-cam and i almost very in love how Japanese doing their work for full day and only focus that job
I love that he is not too proud to help with the cleaning. This guy has my respect with how dedicated he is to his work. I wish we had more people like this in america
I don't know if am the only one, but I think Japanese workers are really hardworking
Ya it’s part of the culture
Maybe a little too hard working sometimes...
They really are, but some workplaces are more concerned with the image of working hard than working efficiently.
@@Malady yeah - it’s 100% not very efficient. Tradition takes precedent
Not really. Many workers that "work" 12 hours a day are usually just sitting around looking like they are working
I am from japan, but haven't lived there for many years. Its really wonderful that you make these videos as it brings me back Home and see how things are going now!
I love these day in the life videos. Japan is such an intriguing place!
I was the Administrator for a company in America. I cleaned the toilet, washed the floor, the sink in the bathroom, swept, cleaned windows, shoved snow during the winter, etc... I never asked anyone to do something I was not willing to do myself.
When I asked my employees to do the same, and tried to start a rotating scheduled,
the response I got from all of them was... "It is not my job!" Obviously, they used the bathroom daily while at work, and I felt that it was unfair I was the only one cleaning it. I finally decided to change the rules. If you are not part of those willing to clean the toilet, you are no longer allowed to use it.
Some of the employees got offended, some tried suing the company, some even tried to sue me personally.
The difference between cultures is staggering, and perhaps the very reason we are not good at anything anymore. It starts at school and at home. Children in Japan are the ones who clean the classroom after they have their lunch. Yes... they clean their tables, move chairs and table around, mop the floors, and empty the trash after they are done, and before they restart classes.
Try to tell an American kid that. Try to tell their parents that their children will have to wash the floor of their own schools after lunch. They will most likely say you are abusing their children, forced labor, underage labor, etc... etc... etc....
We have to change. We are being left behind in every single aspect of a modern and civilized culture.
Our way of thinking is not only wrong, it is also outdated.
If you are the one to keep your spaces nice and clean you realize how much work is it, and your appreciate it more. Japan overwork culture is something I don't agree with but their work ethic and the idea of taking care of your world and thinking about others is incredible, we should all strive to be like that.
Unless it is stated in their contract, you are wasting their efforts on doing non-work things and reducing efficiency. I see it all the time with women managers bossing people around while customers get angry at the bad service. If you can't manage, don't.
Agreed. Our schools fail at academic and personal development. We’re behind in so many ways. Its embarrassing.
@@dansmith1661
Most applications for a job in America have a brief description of the duties expected from the applicant and include the phrase "and any other duties as designated by the manager".
It is always in the Contract, and that is why they tried suing me, and lost.
Having a job, and working are two different things. People don't want to work, they want a job, and a paycheck at the end of the week.
They spend the entire week hiding from costumers, on their cellphones talking and texting on the phone, they are incapable of doing anything, anything at all besides that which they deem to be "their work" and not a drop more.
My employees would walk pass a piece of paper on the floor a dozen of times a day, and not bother to pick it up and throw it in the trash. I used to say... "These people don't bend over even for sex".
They hated me, and the fact that I was giving orders because I am an immigrant who had risen above them. It was a form of sabotage.
Yet, when we hired someone, and that person did a good job, I was the first one to compliment them, and offer a raise before they even thought of asking for one.
It is wrong to generalize but, the fact that I came to this country, worked hard, did well in my professional and personal life and achieved a good deal of success, own my own home, have a nice car, and enjoy some of the good things life has to offer didn't come for free, and any American who works hard knows what I am talking about.
People who think they are doing the boss a favor, just because they show up to work (as I sometimes heard from my employees), fail themselves, and no one is responsible for it but themselves.
Funny.... and at the end of the week, they complain about their paychecks, and say... "See... that is why I don't do nothing!"
Some people think the world should be thankful they are in it, and that the rest of us can't live without them. They have a hard lesson to learn, but I doubt they will actually do it.
@@dansmith1661 reducing efficiency is not a valid concern. It takes very little effort to clean a toilet. I doubt companies have gotten to the point where they are so optimized in their work that taking a small break to clean a toilet would affect profits negatively. My experience has been that most workers spend a good chunk of their time doing nothing productive anyway.
Also, the fact that you singled out women managers makes me reluctant to trust you on the subject. Women aren't some collective hivemind who all act the same.
I really like how he seemed courteous with his staff and doing part of the mundane aspects like cleaning the toilet. Seemed down to earth and not a snob.
When visiting Japan, I've observed managers performing cleaning tasks themselves. My understanding is that this helps maintain standards and sets an example for employees.
@@jeffchan7 cleaning toilet is something special - many bosses to it to pay respect to god of money, who lives in the toilet.
@@RandomUserX99 is this true?
amazing. he's so diligent to what he does and really pays attention to a lot of details to improve the company. salute to this man!!!
a factory owner who cleans a toilet is the most humble worker for me
Anyone else relieved to see the panko crusts not being wasted? Just me? Anyways, thank you for the content, it was informational to learn how panko is made and the people behind it!
The minute I saw that crust going into the large bin, I groaned, "Please don't just throw that away!" I was so happy to see that they didn't.
Japan has a "nothing is wasted" culture called Mottainai.
If they did not donate it, they would have to pay to dispose of it. but yes it was good to hear it is used for animal food
@@harvestmoon_autumnsky Food waste makes for good feed. I wouldn't want to dump this stuff into a stock pond because it would make the fish fatty but it'd be good feed for livestock.
His daughters are so cute 🥺
One learns everyday. I discovered your interesting videos by chance and have found them to be informative about Japanese life. Good job 👍
Hey Paolo. Supremely well thought out and put together videos. Am sooooo enjoying all of them. Huge congrats. Amazing insight into daily Japanese culture and life.
He even helps with instructing the people he delivers to with cooking with his product???
WHOA
It's probably a paid service though, since he does it only by request.
makes sense though, if it's good he'd get clients who are reliant on his products :P
I love how this Panko owner comes from DIY hardcore punk culture ! Props to the GAUZE shirt and GOD SPEED YOU! BLACK EMPEROR ! Panko parody ! Also thats one impressive Punk vinyl collection. By far one of my fav day in the lifes by far !!!
I was wondering if I was the only one who noticed it! I had to double take when I say the Gauze shirt. Was not expecting that.
@@Zarneria yea me too I was like waiiiiit a minute... Lol
First it was the GSYBE reference for me then I saw Battles and toe. A cultured man.
Fugazi poster at 14:12 and the god speed item used black flag bars
all dat 7 inch DIY punk vinyls, GY!BE reference with the Black Flag logo, also running a small business and being the boss but yet sporting long hair and non-office clothing; very in-line with the punk ethos! seems like a cool dude
Such a wholesome moment at the end with his daughters
Im a huge fan of japanese culture. Thanks for sharing videos about the japan. I hope someday i will go there and experience their tradition
am I the only one who just want to continue watching this video and hope it never ends?
"God Speed You! Black Panko"
I've never chuckled that hard at a musical reference since jojo, I love it
So good!!
I almost died with this. I want to eat tonkatsu with this panko. When I saw the vinyl I was like "I bet this guy is into crazy jazz, that kind of record that cost a kidney". But I saw the 7 inch and was... Hum, this is interesting. I wasn't ready for the God Speed You Black Panko. So cool!!!
As well as a Battles poster, man's got taste
Right? This guy is a real rock fan!
I knew there was an indie vibe to this Panko factory owner !
Thank you so much for your informative videos! I watch them nearly every day recently! I hope you wife returns to full strength soon as well.
The simple love of just preparing your daughter's rainboots for her before you go to work 🥰🥰🥰 it's always the little things to show your love that are my favorite
I love the fact that the people are nice enough to let him follow them around especially now in this pandemic.
@Pïnky Flöd your mindset is deseased and disrespect to the millions of lives lost.
Next : Day in the life of "Paolo FromTOKYO".
that's the whole tokyo zebra channel 😅
@@stephiyan you right 🤔
To the TOP you go :)
He must separate himself into two for actions and storytelling😂
@@ngocaotuan4647 yeah maybe 😊but i love to see him, how he spend his time after make a video.
I love business owners in Japan!!! Love to see how humble they are!
He is truly invested in every aspect of the factory work he is an incredible boss. This was great episode.
How come no one is talking about the cutest looking daughter... she looks SO CUTE!!
We need a behind the scenes of A Day In The Life. How you get people to agree to shoot these videos, how you perform all your takes, etc.
Yesss was thinking the same was even gonna comment it
A Day in the Life of A Day in the Life.
I always get fascinated by how advanced the Japanese life is
And yet they still use fax, lots of paper-based system, and cash.
Wooooooww this is customer service on another level. Creating the product then personally teaching clients how to use it for maximum results. I'm inspired
