What is the tradition/characteristic of japanese you hate most?

Oh wow! i'm not familiar with japs culture and can't imagine they're not taking a bath before going to work. a friend who is working in singapore told me about about her officemates there who are not brushing their teeth before going to work. She can still smell the freshness of their morning breath . and their reason, "why should we brush in the morning when we already brush our teeth before sleep and we didn't eat any?" They have their reasons and she has her reason too, to talk with them over the phone even thought they're just a cubicle away. Oh I hate it!

I would rather choose the japs than the singaporeans.. no offense meant, just my opinion

i think they are just too much stress during daily working life,only one place could do release is home,also only at night they are silence and peaceful,so you can not hard to image that why they like take a shower at night,this is the medicine to cure the paint cause by working stress .
there are too much things i hate from japanese also too much i love there are,like the "adult video ",how they can do this like a game,for money or for fun?why all the nation wide girls not care about their body? when they became a mother and how them talk about the "AV "they taken in case of their little girl or boy ask for this?? or the girls already decide never have any children future?
i also hates the japanese killing whales for food,this's unbelievable and unreasonable,why a rich nation like japan doing such sick things to satisfy theirs mouch??
like two sides in one coin, people is,nation is too .

hello there sircaido!
ive been to japan also as a trainee, i really ask that question to my sachou and to my okaasan, bout their tradition always taking a bath at night and not in the morning. their answer is they take a bath in the night because they are working for the whole day, they got to much perspiration and they are very tired. thats why in order them to feel refresh again they must take a bath every night.
in the morning they dont take a bath because they still feel them self clean and why they take a bath where they are not yet go for their work?!

The Japanese are not the only culture in the world that takes baths at night. It's relaxing and leaves people more time in the morning to do other things.
They don't turn on the air conditioner because it's really expensive and the Japanese don't like to waste money or energy.
Personally, what I really don't like is how they assume Caucasian people don't speak Japanese. I speak Japanese fine, thank you! Though I guess a lot of tourists don't.
I'm an American living in Japan, by the way.
