Hi Blog. More on the Open Season on NJ. Here is Internet news site Zakzak headlining that Yoshinoya, famous beef bowl chain restaurant, is being affected by the “big-volume escaping of NJ part-timers”. \u00a0It apparently has lost a quarter of its NJ staff (over 800 souls) fleeing from the fears of radiation from the Tohoku Disasters. Then Zakzak gives us the mixed news that Yoshinoya is still profitable compared to its losses the same period a year ago, but is expected to take a hit to its profits from the Disasters.<\/p>\n

Not sure how that relates, but again, the headline is that NJ are fleeing and that it’s raising doubts about whether the company is still “okay”. Even though Zakzak notes that the company is filling in the gaps with Japanese employees (er, so no worries, right? \u00a0The Disasters, not the alleged NJ flight, are the bigger threat to solvency, no?). \u00a0So… journalistically, we’ll hang the newsworthiness of a company’s profitability on the peg of “escaping NJ”?<\/p>\n

If we’re going to have this much NJ bashing, how about an acknowledgement of how much NJ labor has meant to Japan and how we’re thankful for it, so please don’t leave?<\/p>\n

Nah, easier to bash them. \u00a0Takes the heat off the company for their own variably profitable business practices, and creates more attractive headlines for the media. \u00a0It’s a win-win situation against the bullied and disenfranchised minority. \u00a0Arudou Debito<\/p>\n
