I can't find the study again (ok I probably could if I looked but I'm busy atm) but I remember seeing a thing that put teaching in japan at the top of total work hours compared to teaching worldwide, while at the same time near the bottom of time actually spent teaching. Which I guess can get you lots of time to prep for high quality lessons but the working time was honestly absurd
and it sort of balances out with what my brother's said about his experience teaching english there, there's a lot of time when they want you around and "working" when there isn't really any work to do
Teaching in Japan is a really bad job in general. They have a huge issue with turnover. And every job definitely has a lot of doing nothing at work, Japan has among the lowest productivity per hour worked in the OECD. My wife works a regular 40 hour week but she does maybe 10 hours of actual work. She has been on a combination of maternity leave and other parental leave for about 1.5 years now, but the company honestly probably isn't losing out on much. She used to work from home a lot and I would see her playing games on Steam. I definitely feel bad for any of the people working at black companies or any other jobs that require absurd hours.
