1 Check the front and back! Check the back! Enter the vehicle! Check your mirrors! Buckle your seatbelt! Start the engine! Foot on the brake! Signal right! Shift to drive! Release parking brake! Slowly ease off the brake pedal.
Whoa.
It's moving.
I'm driving! It's a bit scary.
Vehicular freedoooom! RAGE RAGE ACCOUNTING DEPARTMEN There's Anai.
I haven't abused my power and harassed him.
We work together.
You should know that! But Anai turned in a written complaint and took three days off.
You can't say that nothing happened.
I didn't want to show you this, but FROM: ANAI I just stated the obvious to him, like I'd normally do.
But he took it the wrong way.
I don't know what to do.
Retsuko, this is bad.
Really? "Can't you even answer a phone? Some adult you are!" I didn't say it like that.
Calm down! You can't do anything about it.
He's just taken it badly.
CEO OFFICE Family Appreciation Day? It's a nice idea, right? It hit me last week! Another useless idea -Hmm? -Nothing.
What do you have in mind? We'll invite employees' families and show them our gratitude.
We'll have a big old venue for each department to run food stands or fishing games.
You get the idea! It will be a laid-back event where employees spend time with their families.
It would forge bonds, encourage better communication in the workplace and improve productivity! It's a great idea, right? And it will be on the weekend? I'm sure everyone will be thrilled! Yes, sir.
ACCOUNTING DEPARTMEN I have to ruin my weekend by spending time with my family? Ugh, what a pain! I wholeheartedly agree! Every department needs an event committee.
What should we do? How many members? Two.
Two, huh? Excuse me, Anai.
Can I have a word with you? It's about these expense forms I'm checking my mail right now.
I see.
I'm sorry.
That's fine.
That's all you've done the entire morning! Why should I take the bullet for this? Anai, here's some data entry work.
There's no rush, but see that it gets done.
Yes.
I understand.
Bring it to me when it's done.
Sure.
Cars do not stop on a dime.
SAFE DISTANCE You'll need to maintain a safe distance from other cars to prevent a crash.
You should aim for 70 meters at 70 km/h, and 80 meters when driving at 80 km/h.
A "safe distance" To prevent needless trouble, I should keep my distance from Anai.
But Director Ton would say Go all out! Just go all out! That guy keeps on yawning.
The next car will arrive at 8:00 p.
m.
Will you wait for it? I'll wait, then.
The next car will arrive at 8:00 p.
m.
I'll wait, then.
By the way, Tadano, are you OK with your current pace? You're not getting anywhere.
I'd better get it together.
Shape up, or your money will go to waste.
Sure.
Ah, Enio can you pick me up at nine? No, I'm not talking about tomorrow morning.
Tonight, at nine.
That's what I meant.
How is the training going? It's tough, but fun.
I see.
Haida.
Thanks for yesterday.
It's fine.
I'm also senior to him.
I'm just lucky that he won't talk back to me.
There you are, Retsuko.
I have a message for you: get back to Accounting.
What's up? Director Ton's calling for you.
For you and Anai.
ACCOUNTING DEPARTMEN Remember the news about Family Appreciation Day? Each department has to run a stand.
That includes Accounting.
That said Short-timer! And also Anai! You two are our event committee for Family Gratitude Day! Combine your strength and use your intelligence! In sickness and in health! Honor each other, and vow that you'll do your best to make this event a success! Nooooo! Dun! Dun! Dun, dun, dun! Dun, dun, dun! Dun! There's no safe distance between us.
We're on a crash course, headed for a collision.
This is a picture of a crash victim.
That's scary.
Crashes are tragic.
Irreversible things can happen which then have a profound effect on friends and family.
I feel kind of sick You look pale.
Are you OK for your next lesson? Yes, I'll be fine after I rest for a bit.
The lesson today was really tough.
It made me think that I should quit.
Yes, it's scary.
Oh, sorry to disturb you while you're taking a break.
It might actually help me.
I came straight from work, so I'm a bit tired.
I see.
Work, huh? That must be tough.
He's been here since lunchtime, instead of going to work, again.
He hasn't reached the practical part yet.
Right? Are you taking days off for this? Hmm "Days off"? Well You might say I'm just fooling around.
Is he unemployed? I'm Tadano.
I was thinking that you might be around my age.
I'm Retsuko.
I was thinking the same thing.
We're expecting many visitors, as well as their families.
But we cannot expect that all employees will be able to bring their families.
So our main targets are parents of young children in their 30s or 40s, because we can assume that teenagers will resist a family gathering.
To meet the needs of the target group and provide a satisfying lunch for them, we need something that's easy to cook and will result in high profits.
Something we can provide and also stake Marketing's reputation on! That is yakisoba! -I see! -Yakisoba! We've got the title of "most popular stand" in the bag.
Director Gori.
What's Marketing doing for Appreciation Day? It's a secret.
I don't know what Accounting is doing, but I'm sure ours will be the best stand! What is Accounting doing? -Just a yakisoba stand.
-That's pretty average.
Let's see It's 5,520 yen for 10 kilos of noodles.
Isn't there anything cheaper? Retsuko, my dear! Are you planning the stand? What about a yakisoba stand? That's the plan.
Put red wieners in it! They look great when combined with noodles! They don't add much in the way of taste, though.
I'll consider it.
My kids love wieners! They're always asking for their wieners to be cut like octopuses, even though they would never eat real octopus! It's weird, huh? Speaking of lunches, the other day Oh Retsuko, are you done with the plan? No, I'm not.
I had to run away from Kabae because she was bugging me.
I don't want to age into a blabbermouth like her.
I guess I'll go home.
Even if she seems like a blabbermouth, in reality, she's a very disciplined employee.
She picks all of her kids up from school and then feeds them.
She'll be in "mom mode" until she goes to sleep.
I really respect her.
Did you say something? No, it was nothing.
I think this will be enough for the ingredients.
Next is the equipment.
I'm gonna need to rent a propane grill.
Do I need a business permit for a food cart? There's so much to do.
Do you want your coffee black or sweet? Sweet, please.
How is the committee work going? Retsuko's doing it by herself.
She's not involving me.
Well, I thought that might be the case.
I don't get along with her anyway.
Besides, this committee work is not part of my job description.
I'm here as a professional accountant.
You? A pro? Did I say something odd? Come on.
Think about it You're letting a senior co-worker complete the joint tasks you were both assigned? So I have to help her because she's senior to me? You have to help her regardless, senior co-worker or otherwise.
FROM: ANAI QUERY Retsuko, I think I set him off July 3rd, a remark by Haida was directed at me.
"You'd let a senior co-worker complete the joint tasks you were both assigned?" As an act "inducing mental anguish by overstepping boundaries in regards to employee hierarchy," it qualifies as an abuse of power and harassment in the workplace.
If you intend to apologize, I will await it in writing.
Apologize in writing? What the heck? Yeah! Now you know how I feel! It's no use.
We can't We can't control him.
Don't mess with me Don't mess with me
Whoa.
It's moving.
I'm driving! It's a bit scary.
