Last year, I had a Canadian native English teacher who married Japanese man. She told me a story about them in an Airport in America. They were in the embarkation office, then the officer asked her Japanese husband,
''What's your job?''
he answered,
''I work at light company.''(light company:Koito Manufacturing Co., Ltd)
His answer confused the officer. Noticing the officer's suspicious face, she supported her husband saying,
''He is an engineer.''
Then they were able to go through the procedure.
This is an example of how much we Japanese have a sense of being part of a group. Isn't it interesting? I would answer same as him were I asked:) What about you?
