病院に行って面白いことに気づく。待合室で待っていると、医者が自らぼくの名前を呼びに来る「Mr.Date(デート)(デートじゃなくてダテです!)」。日本では偉い医者がわざわざ患者を呼びに来ることはない。ちゃんと役割が決まっていて、社長やボスはただ相手を待つだけなのが基本だ。役割を身分制度的にわけないイギリスの良いとこだなと感じた。
日本の製薬会社に勤める友人が興味深い話を前にしてくれた。大きな会社なのはわかるが、社長に会いに行くのに一苦労だという。まず1階の受付に行く、「アポイントメントをおとりになったxx様ですね、社長室は126階でございます。」126階に行く。またその階に受付がある。「ご確認いたしますので少々お待ちください。」15分ほど待たされる。「社長室はここを右にまがり、左に、また左に、奥に進み、一番最後のお部屋になります。」言われたとおりに歩いて、たどり着く。
ドアの先にはまた誰かが居て、「少々お待ちください。」とまた。社長の姿は見ることが出来ず。なんだか大きな仕切りが目の前にある。男が戻り、話しかける「社長はいまお居眠り中で御座います。また後ほどお越しください」なんていわれたりして。そしたらまたアポとって、受付に行って。いつ会えるのかわかりませんね。大体仕切り(仕切りがあるのは本当)の後ろでなにやってんでしょうね?ちゃんと仕事してるのかな?なんでそんな「神」的な崇拝をしなくてはいけないのだろうか?
なんなら黄金で出来た仏像とか社長室に社長の代わりに置いておけばいいと思う。それで1日に5回拝むとか。そうしたら皆まじめに仕事できるかも。社長怒んないし。
生産性のない無駄な仲介が多すぎる。
これは本当の話なんだけど、イタリア人のウェブデザイナーが日本で働くことになって、クライアントのお偉いさんにどうしてもコンタクトがとれない。途中段階を見せたいのに、相手の部下の人が「いやいまちょっとxxさんは忙しくて、これでいいです。もう期限近いんで終わらせちゃってください」「いやでもこれで最後に違うとか言われても困るので…」と友達は言ってなんとか相手のボスにめせてもらうよう頼むが実現しない。 結局最終の案を見せたら怒られ最初からやり直せと言われる。ボスの機嫌を伺って、最後に怒られて全てやり直しになるかもしれないのに、途中を見せない… 念のため友達が別の案を作っていたために助かる。「お、これいいじゃん、これでいこ」
一旦権力を持つとなんでこんな横暴になるのでしょうか?みんな子供なんですね。成長が止まっているようにしか思えない…
こんなくだらないことが、小さいものから大きいのまでぜんぶ日本に埋め尽くされている。また一から作り上げるために、全部解いてみんなをばらばらにしたい。
I realised interesting thing when I was in
hospital. Doctor came to the waiting room and asked ‘Mr.Date?(Deito) (not
Deito! Daate!)’ Great Doctors do not
come out from his room in Japan. Rules are constructed firmly, and CEO or Boss supposed
to be waiting at their place. I think
this is good think about England, they don’t separate role as inflexible hierarchy.
My friend who works in a medicine company in
Japan told me an interesting story. It is a big company, but very hard to reach
to the CEO to talk. First of all, you go to reception on the ground floor. ‘Mr.xx
I heard you have made an appointment with OOO, CEO’s room is on the floor 126.’
So He went to the floor 126, then there was another reception on the floor. ‘ I
will confirm it, so please wait, sir’ then 15min to wait, ‘Ok, you go right at the first corner, left,
then left again, going straight and the last door is the room’ He goes as exactly as he was told.
There was someone after the door. ‘Please wait
here’ Oh not again! He could not see the face of CEO, and there
was a partition in front of CEO’s Desk. The
man by the door came back and saying ‘ the boss is having a nap at the moment,
please do come back next time’ Then he
had to make an appointment and go to receptions and when can he meet the
boss??? Anyway why there is a partition
in front of the boss( this is true, there is a partition). Is he really working?
Why do all the staff respect him like a “GOD”?
Then perhaps, better lay a full gold Buddha
statue as a CEO on the desk in his room. Then we could play 5times a day. Maybe
everybody works harder, and the boss will never shout at us…
Following story is a true story. My friend who
is Italian web designer works in Japan. She was trying to contact with the
client’s boss. Of course she wanted to show the progress, but the staff of
client said ‘Well he is a bit busy at the moment, this is fine, so please
continue’ and my friend says, ‘come on I need to show him, I don’t want to do
all over again, if he doesn’t like it’ but the staff doesn’t listen. He was afraid of disturbing his boss. After
all, the client didn’t like it at all and ask her to do everything all over
again. But my friend luckily created some version of design and showed to him,
then he said ‘oh this is quite good, let’s do this’
Why people use the power when they reached to
the top? Sounds like a child, It seems like they stop growing their mind.
These kinds of silly small and big matters are
everywhere in Japan, I would like to untie and fall apart once to construct
from the scratch.
