Yet another mind boggling Japanese display of behavior

It happened again. The Japanense going through their daily actions in life and work with little individual thinking, but rather the mass knowledge or the ideas that their suprvisor tells them. Anyone who has visited Japan has probably witnessed how bad the japanese are at moving themselves. They wonder 4 wide in a sidewalk at a pace that barely rivals a snail. They zig-zag randomly in shopping center walkways like the are avoiding the bullet of a WWII sniper. But this isnt all.

A few days ago i went to an internet cafe to print some documents. 16 to be exact. If they provide a printer, logic would dictate that you put about 100 sheets of paper in the holder and let it go whenever someone hits the print button. Not here. First, you know those trays that most home printers have? They can fold up for easy packaging. But once you buy it, you usually set up the printer and leave the tray down. Right? Someone tell the Japanese. First i tried to print and got some Japanese error message. I whipped my arm in the air and a staff member read the error and put the tray down. Then i printed a page. I then tried to print another page a few minutes later. Error message. The printer tray was folded up again. I had to raise my hand and tell them to put it down. Then i tried to print 4 pages. Whoa Mike, dont go getting greedy! Apparently here is the system these guys have at this cafe. Put the tray up after each print session (because it looks cleaner?) Also, only put one sheet of paper in the 1inch paper holder. ONE PAGE?! So i tried to print 12 pages. After each page i got an error telling them to put more paper in. But only one was placed in the tray. WHY?! Ughh. I got so frustrated watching them put the tray up and put a sheet in. When they hear the printer warm up, they flip the tray down. That is if they are by the printer and paying attention to their vapid job instead of fixing their overly dyed hair.
