Day in the Life of a Typical Japanese Office Worker in Tokyo


Living in Japan and working in a Tokyo office - This is a Tokyo day in the life  of a Japanese Office Worker, 24 year old, Emi.  This is also a tour of her Japanese office, Pasona.  We start this typical day in her Japanese home, commute via train to her Tokyo office in Otemachi and spend a day in the life of Emi at her working place.  We see her typical working hours in Japan and how it is working in Japan as a female in her position.  Her day in the life in Japan may be a bit different than some Japanese salarymen, but her experiences in the office with chorei, senpai / kouhai, and kenshu is a very typical in experiences in many Japanese offices.  If you want to know how work in Japan or want to know how work in Tokyo, this could be how your job in Japan could be like. 

The Tokyo office itself, is probably an above average Japanese office in terms design and the business culture a bit more progressive than most traditional Japanese companies, but this Japanese company still maintains a very traditional Japanese office environment.  So all in all, this is an example of Japan life as well as Tokyo life if you were to work in a Japanese company.  You should always be aware of Japanese culture when working in a Japanese office.  This Japanese office has a gym, English school and even a farm all in the building.  Pasona is one of the largest staffing services company in Japan.  There’s about 4000 staff in her office alone and about 9000 in total worldwide.

Tony Hawk’s Path to Progression


"Learning new tricks is a landmark of skateboarding. It’s a process that is not always groundbreaking or easy to understand from a non-skating perspective. I documented the journey of doing an “NBD” (never been done) on vert in order to give a better understanding of what it takes to be innovative in a sport that constantly evolves; hours of attempts and a sprained ankle for a 3-second clip that could easily go unnoticed… but worth all the effort as far as I’m concerned." -Tony Hawk

Competition: Win Pitching In - On DVD

Pitching In is released on 8th April

And to celebrate we have a great competition for you and 3 copies to give away.

Synopsis
TV favourite Larry Lamb (Eastenders, Gavin and Stacey) returns to our screens as Frank Hardcastle, a recently widowed Londoner getting to grips with big changes in his life, in the Welsh-set comedy drama Pitching In currently airing on BBC One and coming to DVD and digital courtesy of Acorn Media International on 8 April 2019.

Welcome to Daffodil Dunes Holiday Park in the picturesque village of Glan Mor on the north Wales coast: the heartbeat of this close-knit community, run by salt-of-the-earth cockney Frank for 50 years. When his flighty daughter Carys (Caroline Sheen - Les Miserables) and grandson Dylan (William Romain – Creeped Out) show up at his 71st birthday party and announce they are staying for good, Frank considers whether it might be a good time to sell up and start again. Especially as local estate agent, Iona Driscoll (Hayley Mills - Wild at Heart) has a very tempting offer for him to consider…in more ways than one.

But Carys convinces her dad to let her become the park’s new manager, prompting a flurry of hare-brained schemes as she attempts to attract new customers and appease the long-term residents. Carys must also deal with her feelings for ex-fiancé Danny (Craig Russel - Hollyoaks) who runs the local pub with his new partner. Can she stay away from the man she jilted at the altar?

Telling the story of three generations of the same family, all struggling to make the best of a very unusual set up on the edge of the Irish sea, Pitching In also features Gavin and Stacey co-star Melanie Walters and Taj Atwal (Line of Duty, Stella). This community-spirited drama is touching, funny, and romantic.

Home really is what you make it, so settle in for this cracking coastal comedy.

The Story of "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" by Eiffel 65


When Eiffel 65 released 'Blue (Da Ba Dee),' it was a flop. They sold around 200 records, shrugged it off as a loss, and forgot about it. But in a wild turn of events, the track got picked up by a small local station before getting airplay on one of the biggest radio stations in Italy—and within days, it was steamrolling its way to becoming one of the biggest hits of the late 1990s, taking the electronic music group touring around the world as their song shot up the charts.

We met up with the members of Eiffel 65—Jeffrey Jey, Maurizio “Maury” Lobina, and Gabry Ponte—to find out the origin story behind "Blue," and hear what it was like to become international superstars in the blink of an eye.

Competition: Win Baptiste on DVD

Synopsis
One of TVs best loved French detectives Julien Baptiste, played by the inimitable Tchéky Karyo, made a massive impact in the hugely successful drama The Missing Series 1 & 2 and has just returned to our screens with his very own show, Baptiste.

From Harry and Jack Wiliams, the respected writers of the acclaimed The Missing comes Baptiste, a thrilling new drama starring Karyo (The Patriot, La Femme Nikita) as the insightful, but stubborn eponymous investigator.

When Julien and his wife move to Amsterdam, his ex-girlfriend who happens to be the Chief of Police seeks out his help due to his questioning and persistent approach to crime solving. Baptiste becomes heavily embroiled in a case that peels back the layers of atrocity in the trade of sex and drugs and exposes the vile depths of human behaviour. Delving deep into the criminal underworld he soon uncovers a complex web of deceit and lies. Can he uncover the dark secrets hidden amongst the beautiful streets, canals and houses of the city?

With excitement building for the welcome return of our favourite detective, alongside a stellar cast including Tom Hollander (The Night Manager, Rev) and Jessica Raine (Patrick Melrose, Call the Midwife), Baptiste is set to become the show everyone is talking about.
