While Japanese do not.
You can tell this by even looking at how clean Japanese buildings are vs American buildings.
And of course this doesn't apply to all of those two categories.

I think you are right that in minimum wage jobs in the service industry you probably see a better attitude from workers in Japan rather than in the US.
The reason is that Japanese feel like they are a part of a team, even if they work at a fast-food restaurant or at a gas station. Americans don't feel that sense of "teamwork" at that level of job. This us a cultural trait that goes very deep in Japan.
