Simon and Martina talk about a Twitter storm that erupted after a tweet was posted about the workplace culture in Japan. An image from a book was posted on 'Japanese Twitter,' attempting to create an understanding about people who have Asperger's. The book teaches people why others may be a little different. They used an example of someone leaving work on time. It caused a big online debate about why people can't leave work on time without being made to feel bad. The duo thought it sparked an interesting discussion. What are your thoughts?
