I know some japanese manufacturers and they've had huge issues with their Vietnamese workers. I think they would honestly hire locals except most young locals don't want to work that kind of job
Their wages arent bad. Mcdonalds used to pay 13 to 14 per hr a decade ago. Haven't kept up since then
Its just people dont want to be blue collar workers. If a white collar job was available for those wages, they rather take that so its not so much the wage issue but how its perceived.
i mean yeah but at the same time if the wages were good people would do it. You have Japanese women actually doing manual work and pulling people on rickshaws just because rickshaw pullers have high pay in Japan.
i also think making university the end all be all is also bad.
There are people doing it. There are japanese women working manufacturing.By that logic, the wages must be good.
The problem is when people start making unrealistic demands of blue collar salaries. It's like how california thinks 20 dollars min wage is a good idea
The problem with the rickshaw pulling comparison is that there is only a limited demand for rickshaws. It's a niche product. They maybe have to fill 2-3 spots for every 100 manufacturing jobs in japan so yeah, it's easier to fill up the demand for rickshaw pullers. And it still sounds better than saying you're a blue collar factory worker because it's so niche.
