Uniqlo operator to boost annual pay in Japan by up to 40%

1. Holy shit, store managers were only getting 290,000 yen a month??

2. The whole country should be boosting wages.

   The amount people get paid here is absolutely ridiculous considering the rising cost of everything.

3. This sounds great initially, but when you see how shitty the current pay is, it’s not much of an improvement.
   I was offered a corporate position at fast retailing, but declined because the base pay was laughable and the hours were crazy…something like 7am to 4:30 and they made it sound like they were doing you a favor letting you off early to give you time to study something beneficial for the company (like a third or fourth language).
