Zetsumado #100: The Story of a Boss Who Makes No Sense and Men Who Stand by Their Principles
This is the 100th episode of Zetsubou no Madogiwa-zoku. In this episode, we talk about the unreasonable events that happen in the workplace and the things we love that make our daily lives a little brighter.
The true intentions of a boss who asks if you are okay alone are a complete mystery.
In the first half, we discuss an episode involving a boss I encountered at work. After I gave a report on a business trip, they asked me, "Are you going to be okay by yourself?" When I asked for clarification, they replied, "Well, I think you'll be fine alone." Wait, so what was the point of the first question? Many office workers have likely experienced the frustration of being swayed by a boss who says whatever comes to mind without thinking, and I am sure many will resonate with this story.
I am strongly drawn to stories about men who stand by their principles.
In the second half, I talk about my excitement for the new title from Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, "STRANGER THAN HEAVEN". A place where powerless middle-aged men and outcasts can live. Touching upon stories of men who hold to their principles can truly rescue one's spirit when it feels dampened by work. The conversation expands into hobby talk that serves as emotional support, including how the personality felt after watching a certain work recently.
We plan to deliver even deeper episodes next time.
From unreasonable interactions at the office to the small joys that keep us going, this episode captures thoughts born from specific experiences. More in-depth stories are coming up, so please listen to the full episode if you are curious about what follows.
