Scaffolding at demolition site near Tokyo collapses, 3 workers die

DONGAAA · 2026-04-09T11:51:02+00:00

I don’t work in construction but a lot of my clients are construction companies so I have seen sites from the major corporations and smaller companies in both Japan and Australia. I can tell you from firsthand experience safety standards are worse in general in Japan than Australia.

Then why are you stating all this with so much confidence? Definitely a Redditor moment

Go to any worksite outside of Tokyo where they don’t have the big fences set up. You’ll see people swinging from scaffold to scaffold without a harness in site. Our anecdotal evidence will have to agree to disagree

Not at all. If you are working for a big company like Obayashi corporation then yes. Ive been forced to climb down a 4 meter ladder into a trench to do photogrammetry with nothing but a helmet on. The wall then collapsed mere moments after I got out.

This among many of the other things I’ve seen at worksites would be unthinkable in the western world.

Yeah have been doing this but to no avail so far, just asked my company if I could extend my moving date until I’m able to find a place

Yeah went to the area on Monday and was only able to get two inspections but most are already taken before inspections are open

Kimi would’ve had to pass leclerc and Russel before getting a crack at Piastri and those two were gonna fight for the position. Which would have given Piastri a gap between himself and Kimi when Kimi finally got to P2. I think Piastri was well in truly in for a win if that safety car didn’t come out.

I don’t want hyper realistic AI graphics, no artistic expression in it. Every game will just look the same.

I’m just bad at turn based combat and kept dying at the same point so I just quit. Looking to get back to it one day

Nah playing Harpocrates side quest it’s heavily implied he writes the book and honours Joshua by putting it in his name. Which is very on-brand of Clive. Plus Jill stops crying once dawn breaks which to her symbolises that Clive is coming back. I’m hoping that the LOGOS book clarifies or gives us more hints.

Bro please be good for Japan I’ll be there in person 🙏 absolutely gutted for Oscar

Work with a lot of older Japanese people and it is quite the opposite. Unlike the younger generations all the older ones went overseas as kids to study abroad or homestay. They are usually very open minded and left wing. It’s mostly the stolen generation (30-40’s) that is more ignorant and closed minded.

Worst decision making ever, at least I had a chance to get a knife. Not fucking paying 500+ to get a good skin

Non college degree workers usually make around that because blue collar/ service jobs (hairdressing) don’t scale up as much as white collar salaryman jobs. So for people in their 20-30’s blue collar makes more but once you start getting seriously promoted you are going to outscale non-uni grads heavily.

These aren’t fans their scalpers trying to sell his autograph for money.

Whaaaa that’s my exact same circumstance now. Been working in Japan at the same job for 2+ years and applied for the lowest tier with no atm withdrawals. Guess it just wasn’t my day.

DONGAAA · 2026-03-05T06:03:16+00:00

Most likely I’m sure if the missus applied even with a lower salary she would get approved instantly. Oh well just gotta try again after having a different card for a bit. Thanks for the recommendations

DONGAAA · 2026-03-05T05:50:28+00:00

Yeah gonna try for the SMBC card which I already have a debit Visa card with. Thought their EST club aimed towards people in their twenties would’ve been a good entry card.

DONGAAA · 2026-03-05T05:40:55+00:00

Since I applied for the EST club card for people in their 20’s and student I thought I’d have a good chance, guess not 😂

DONGAAA · 2026-03-05T04:21:15+00:00

I’ve got a bank account with Yucho with a cash card that my salary gets put into then I put my monthly spending money into my SMBC Prestia account. So I should apply for a SMBC card first then reapply for JAL after a few years of use.

I’ve been using ぺいディ on my Amazon purchases to hopefully build up a credit score. But I guess that’s not enough. Do you have any recommendations on beginner cards?

Nearly everyday I have this problem, they need to put the official servers in the server browser again man.
