indosnm 0 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Originally Posted By: bobby12 Anyway back on topic, those flag guys are basically on the japanese version of the dole.

Most of them look semi-homeless (by that I mean they live in those hellhole slum-like tiny apartments in ancient buildings at major traffic intersections, above porno shops etc) Bobby, The flag & sign guys are paid by pretty well. my wife was working for a small construction company when we were in Japan and told me this which was pretty suprising. I can't recall how much but I will check and let you know. (definitely more than 500yen!) Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I reckon they get about 1000yen per hour. Which is what a 7-11 person gets. And they are stood in warm shops with much less arm waving. Link to post Share on other sites
2pints-mate 0 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 What is the minimum wage in Japan anyway? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 7-11 get 1000 yen? They don't round these parts. More like 800 yen I think. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 oops, I picked up a big fat yellow pages thing for jobs in Tokyo. Many 7-11s were 1000, some were 1100. Ace. Might have to moonlight when I 'm over. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Really? Sure ain't that rate here in Niigata. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I thought it was very reasonable, considering you don't get random violence from drunk gaijin even on the graveyard shift. Link to post Share on other sites
sanjo 2 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 My local 7-11, it's 800 yen. I saw a sign on the door just yesterday. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I think if I was homeless, destitute, hungry, unshaven, ugly, poor, smelly, a lunatic, in prison, in love, a homo, a hobo, I'd be very happy with 800 an hour. Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 In Tokyo they have to pay more because people can't afford to live if they offer less. Sukiya was offering 1400Â¥/h in Shibuya according to their adverts. Link to post Share on other sites

RobBright 35 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Originally Posted By: thursday And they are stood in warm shops with much less arm waving. Guess you haven't been to my local 7/11. It's like an ice box in there! Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Few years back, this love hotel videoed their guests without them knowing and sold the tapes at street side porno vendors. This came to light when a dude picked one up and found himself starring. He went to the cops Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I saw a travel program somewhere that says you have an option of getting a DVD of your action. If you don't want this, they'll film you anyway, just incase you change your mind afterwards Link to post Share on other sites

best skier in hakuba 5 Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Sometimes, when I'm busy and wishing I wasn't as busy, on a fine day, I look at these guys and am jealous. Then again, I think one day of that would be enough! Can you imagine doing it day in and day out. Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I was very surprised when after a meeting, one of the marketers, a very foxy lady in a black skirt suit offered me a swig from her hip flask. It was whisky. And it was a single malt. Fanstastic. Still go drinking with her every now n then. Link to post Share on other sites
