I often stand at work, because sitting hurts me. | | | |

I'm not sure about forcing them to do this....but, sometimes I believe I would be WAY more productive if I could stand while proofing sessions. Lord knows I would probably spend less time on forums, lol! | | | |

Just another reason that I'm nervous, as I, too, have Japanese overlords. | | | |

Having worked in Japanese factories and been there far too many times, it doesn't surprise me in the least. Note the uniforms. Conformance is a virtue.
Handicapped? You probably aren't working there anyway, the handicapped have virtually no rights in Japan whatsoever. Consider yourself fortunate that they let you live.....

Wow, as much as I love my Canon stuff, this makes me want to boycott them. How many other companies do this? It's insane  | | | |

Many of the things we do in the USA seem equally insane to them. Like eating in the car, giving women equal rights....it is a cultural thing.

later, | LOL-right Angel- that 1ds2 is a real horse I really love it. Right now the 1d3 is the my only canon in which I have little confidence. It was their attitude about fixing the thing that drove me to get my feet wet with Nikon. That D700 is also awesome.
