funny stuff, the main actress does a great job, but the Japanese actors wouldn't be anywhere near that intense to work with ( eg: tearing up papers, pulling faces, getting loud ) It would've been very hard to get her out of her contract once she was there ( ! ) Harassment would've been more subtle which might not have come across as well on the big screen

Unfortunately her wish to become "really Japanese" came a bit too true; she's treated just like a regular employee, 10-20 years ago

A major corporation simply couldn't get away with any of this now; I've heard of Tokyo banks transferring unwanted employees to Singapore where labour laws are pretty much non-existant + firing them there, also know an American that won 20,000,000yen in a harassment case against an employer; corporations take notice, times have changed
