serious business

i took this photo a little while ago, but i think it illustrates the diligence of the japanese. even working at noodle restaurant they have their morning meetings. out in front of the restaurant no less! in almost all businesses these types of meetings are a must in japan.
it reminds me of the summer that i worked part-time at walmart and how there was morning everyday there too. that mostly consisted of the manager hootin' and a hollerin' about the customers with a big half hearted cheer from the rest of us at the end...
anyway, for me morning meetings are a drag anywhere im the world!
