【No. 0802】Sad Premium Friday
Feb 27, 2017 11:17
Two days ago, I wrote about the introduction of Premium Friday in Japan.
It is a kind of campaigns that recommend finishing your work at 3 p.m. and promote personal consumption by the Japanese government and financial circles.
However, there were about 120 companies that introduced Premium Friday and let employees go home early.
The number is only 0.1 % of all Japanese companies.
A company says that there is not much point in going home early on Premium Friday because overtime at other days will be increase.
Some net users complain that this day was born for true premium citizens, that is, high-ranked citizens.
