I Mean, Isn't the Economy Messed Up?·ていうか経済ってムズカシイじゃないですか
A 36-year-old female section manager at a general trading company reflects on the Japanese economy and corporate culture from her position as a middle manager. Having once been known as an "oyaji gyaru" in her 20s, she now mediates between her superiors and younger staff, offering an observational perspective on workplace dynamics. She critiques how terms like "global standards" are often reduced to fluency in English and IT skills, used as justification for imposing personal views. The work highlights her ability to recognize and laugh at the absurdities of corporate life without becoming overwhelmed by them.
