Urban Legend in JAPAN

1)Handwriting CV
Oh my holy God! Can you imagine "handwriting CV"? I cannot believe such ridiculous types of applications "widely" exist in Japan. People who strongly believe its existence insist that handwriting CV means that the applicants really want to go to the company and "terrific" method to check applicants' loyalty. I feel that the companies are not so much, but this custom seems to exist and recognized as an initial process of "brainwash" . You may think you are not necessary to apply such a company. However, if a lot of companies require "handwriting CV", it sometimes inevitable though I believe that is not "common" case. I believe.


Japanese companies are small North Korea.


2)Blood type reflects personality of a human being in Japan
I repeatedly told my families that this is a fake science but no body believe. If you go to Japan, you may be asked your blood type. They started to categorize your personality after they know your blood type. A lot of books about how to judge people's personality based on blood type are published. Well, do not reply your blood type in Japan!


I cannot find any reason why people believe this so far. This may be a religion in Japan.


3) Armstrong did not arrive at Earth's Moon
These days, it may be difficult to find people who believe Apollo program. A lot of people are thinking that Armstrong did not land on the Moon. The approval rating is more than that of Hatoyama administration close to the end! This is because of a TV show which was broadcasted on a April fool. The TV show was made so well that a lot of people began to believe that Apollo project was a fake of NASA without doubting a dummy TV station.


You may think that Japan has a lot of ridiculous customs or you just might feel I am joking. However, every society have a lot of paradox. If that was fatal, you may have to do something to change the false knowledge. On the other hand, if it does not deteriorate the public wealth, those social phenomena may reflect some important aspect of their societies.
