RE: The next sandwich

Traveling for work is exciting! I imagine Japan is something like traveling to the future, except for the part about traveling like sardines, haha.

It's incredible that they can go to work in their cosplay outfits, something that in my country would at least land you in a psychologist's office!

Yesss! I missed those days when we got to travel for work for free haha.. Most exciting was the free part. The sardines part, not so fun but still fun in some ways if we look at the glass half full situation haha.

Yaaa, I was curious too but I think those in cosplay were students mainly cos they looked young or maybe they work at a cosplay shop 😂

If I had known that there were jobs that allowed you to travel for work, I would have gone for them, haha!

Interestingly, the Japanese tend to maintain a youthful appearance for many years; in general, Asians have excellent genetics.

There are, especially if the job is a regional job. I was taking care of Asia Pacific back then, so the chances to travel to the countries in Asia Pacific was pretty high before Covid but after Covid, almost everything changed to online 😅But now, I no longer take care of a region, so, no more travel for work 🥲All I can do now is go through my memories and reminisce my past 😂
I think maybe it is the weather that helped with the skin, not as harsh. But Japanese and Koreans do have nice, soft skins 😊(from adverts and all the j-pop and k-pop groups 😂)

I think that with the internet, remote work or working from home became fashionable.

I don't know if it's the climate, genetics, or anti-wrinkle creams, but they certainly look young!

Food also makes a difference, same for staying inside, covering the skin and cosmetic surgery but the average person is still... average

This BOOMING vote is yours and well deserved!

With us you cannot go to work in Cosplay outfit either

That reminded me of the viral story of an English woman, if I remember correctly, who was banned from having her hair dyed in an extravagant color.

The issue is that it was prohibited in the internal work regulations, but she found a loophole. Wigs were not banned, and as a form of protest, she wore wigs every day, some of them simply absurd. I liked her peaceful and ironic resistance. She beat the company.

But her pink hair is pretty!!! That is quite a silly regulation. It doesn't affect her work. Glad she found humor in it haha.
Just this year or was it last year, during the festive season, around my area, pink and purple were the trend and many people had pink and purple highlights. They looked pretty cool, I thought.

Undoubtedly a silly rule that was masterfully defied. I also like vibrant colors, although now I'm letting my gray hair show.

Me tooooo! I've had white hair since I was nine and it stayed nicely hidden until when I started high school or uni I think. Then I was dyeing my hair till about 4 years back that I decided, nah. Too much time wasted on hair dyeing. Every 2 weeks, they start to show and then you start getting white hair anxiety. It is pretty cool looking like Storm from X-Men but sometimes people mistaken me as a senior citizen who needs a seat in the train... haha.

Wow! I inherited them from my mother; I found out when I was 20, when a classmate sitting in a row above me saw them, haha.

This year I stopped dyeing my hair, and I'd love it if people would give up their seats on the bus, although those customs are dying out!
