In Japan, laid off can also mean homeless - 02-17-2009, 01:43 PM

This article got me thinking about the difference in the work force of the US and Japan. Its a sad article in a way but with Japan economy is a having a very hard time so this goes along with the other articles i have posted over the past couple of weeks. In a way im very glad i am employed in the US but im also not a temporary employee nor would i ever do such a thing.

Temporary workers who live in agencies' dorms are shown the door
