:46:01
Why don't you... you know... leave?
:46:09
Actually, I' m interested
in what's going on at the plant.

:46:12
Nobody minds if I stay, right?
:46:18
See.
:46:21
Mr stevenson... hunt.
:46:24
How do you think
things are going at the factory?

:46:28
- Honestly, kaz?
- Yes, please.

:46:33
Not too well.
:46:36
See, you're stateside now.
:46:38
But you still act like
yokohama mamas. No offence.

:46:42
- None taken.
- Can I be frank for a second?

:46:49
I' ve heard a lot of talk about how good
the japanese businessmen are.

:46:56
Frankly... I' m sorry, I don't get it.
:46:58
I don't see it, I' m not impressed.
Not one iota.

:47:03
- You're fired.
- What?

:47:08
You can't fire me!
:47:09
You'll go back on the line with the others.
:47:12
Wait a minute.
Explain this to me. Why?

:47:15
I do not understand american workers.
They arrive late, they leave early,

:47:20
stay home when they are sick.
:47:22
They put themselves above company.
You seem to feel the same way.

:47:27
Ok, but explain something to me.
:47:29
When this was an american factory,
production was 10% higher than now.

:47:35
Ten per cent?
:47:37
In japan, production in
same size factory is 40% higher.

:47:40
With superior quality.
:47:43
- Impossible. How can you work so fast?
- Japanese worker is very loyal.

:47:48
He's very proud
when company does well.

:47:51
- He's ashamed when it does poorly.
- Like now.

:47:54
In japan, when production lags,
worker stays longer in factory.

:47:59
Ok, overtime.
Time-and-a-half is standard.
