But keep in mind that those people created DOA. Thea reson why you are lurking around here in the first place. I'm seeing some insulting and immature posts here, led by their current emotions. Please folks, keep it classy. There are probably just a few people in charge responsible for all this. Most of them are just working for their supper as you and me do. Some of them with more heart, some with less. Cannot blame them.
You've not worked for a Japanese company before, have you?
Yes, we absolutely can blame them. Because their work culture is completely different to ours. From the guy at the bottom who moves the mail between cubicles, to the guy at the top who comes to work in a helicopter - everyone, (and I mean, everyone) takes pride and responsibility in their work.
Which means if they're chucking this shit out knowing it's a mess, they've already accepted the comeback that stems from shoddy workmanship. They expect no less, which is why they're apologising. And if you let that poor workmanship stand, you're as guilty in eroding the company name as the bad decisions that have put us in this position are.
Aspiration without accountability has no measure. Pride has no purpose if you have no peer to share it with.
Besides, Itagakiさん is the vision behind DoA. And he left the building a very long time ago. The guys left are just caretakers of someone else's legacy. And right now, as he rightly put it not so long ago, they're shitting on that legacy pretty damn hard.
