At 00:04:37,444, Character said: “So you've never taken
a vacation?”

49
At 00:04:40,614, Character said: “That's right.”

50
At 00:04:41,990, Character said: “Because city hall

51
At 00:04:44,743, Character said: “No, because everyone

At 00:05:30,747, Character said: submitted 11/7/1930
by kanji watanabe

60
At 00:05:36,545, Character said: but there's nothing left

61
At 00:05:41,299, Character said: They've been completely
worn down

62
At 00:05:44,719, Character said: by the minutia
of the bureaucratic machine

63
At 00:05:48,306, Character said: and the meaningless
bus yness it breeds.

64
At 00:05:56,898, Character said: Busy... so terribly busy.

65
At 00:06:00,110, Character said: But in reality,
he does nothing at all

66
At 00:06:04,447, Character said: besides protecting
his own position.

67
At 00:06:08,076, Character said: The best way to protect
your place in this world

68
At 00:06:11,538, Character said: is to do nothing at all.

69
At 00:06:16,209, Character said: But is this enough?

70
At 00:06:24,551, Character said: Is this really enough 7

71
At 00:06:28,096, Character said: for him to Stan'
thinking seriously about this,

72
At 00:06:31,558, Character said: his stomach
will have to get a lot worse,

73
At 00:06:35,061, Character said: and he'll have to rack up
a lot more wasted time.

74
At 00:06:40,942, Character said: But any proposal
for creating a park

75
At 00:06:44,571, Character said: must go to the parks department.

76
At 00:06:47,324, Character said: This seems to be more
a matter of sanitation.

77
At 00:06:50,952, Character said: Talk to your
district health center.

78
At 00:06:53,997, Character said: See the sanitation department.

79
At 00:06:56,458, Character said: See environmental sanitation.

80
At 00:06:59,002, Character said: Preventive sanitation.

81
At 00:07:01,087, Character said: Disease control.

82
At 00:07:03,298, Character said: Lots of mosquitoes?

83
At 00:07:05,508, Character said: That's a job for pest control.

84
At 00:07:12,140, Character said: The problem is seeping waste,
which means...

85
At 00:07:16,853, Character said: It's a problem for
the sewage department at city hall.

86
At 00:07:21,441, Character said: That was originally a culvert.

87
At 00:07:24,569, Character said: That is, it had a road over it.

88
At 00:07:27,614, Character said: You'll need the okay
of the roads department.

89
At 00:07:30,408, Character said: City planning doesn't have
a policy for such cases.

90
At 00:07:34,746, Character said: Go to zoning.

91
At 00:07:37,040, Character said: The fire department objected
to filling that cesspool.

92
At 00:07:42,963, Character said: They need it because
water pressure is bad there.

93
At 00:07:46,091, Character said: Are you kidding?

94
At 00:07:47,759, Character said: What we need is water,

95
At 00:07:50,220, Character said: not sewage that breeds mosquitoes
and causes rashes.

96
At 00:07:54,641, Character said: Imagine cleaning that sewage
out of our hoses!

97
At 00:07:58,895, Character said: If there were a kiddie pool there,
that'd be great for us too.

98
At 00:08:04,567, Character said: What about
your local school district?

99
At 00:08:07,529, Character said: They should have
a child welfare section.

100
At 00:08:11,866, Character said: But this problem
doesn't only affect children.

101
At 00:08:16,329, Character said: Rebuilding all the schools
has exhausted our resources.

102
At 00:08:20,875, Character said: A problem this big
should be handled

103
At 00:08:23,420, Character said: by your city councilman.

104
At 00:08:27,048, Character said: Sure, I'll write an introduction
to the deputy mayor.

105
At 00:08:31,052, Character said: Take my business card.
He'll see you right away.

106
At 00:08:37,058, Character said: Please have a seat.

107
At 00:08:39,227, Character said: Thank you for all your efforts.

108
At 00:08:43,106, Character said: There's really nothing
we welcome more

109
At 00:08:46,484, Character said: than folks like you
who bring grievances like this

110
At 00:08:50,864, Character said: directly to our attention.

111
At 00:08:54,242, Character said: It's precisely
for people like you

112
At 00:08:56,995, Character said: that we established
our new public affairs section.

113
At 00:09:00,498, Character said: Don't hesitate
to tell them all about it!

114
At 00:09:03,126, Character said: Show these nice folks
to the public affairs desk.

115
At 00:09:07,464, Character said: You'll need to talk
to public works. Desk 8.

116
At 00:09:22,145, Character said: How dare you!
Stop giving us the runaround!

117
At 00:09:25,815, Character said: Why did you even put up
that sign?

118
At 00:09:28,193, Character said: So we'd waste our time?

119
At 00:09:30,236, Character said: We're not idlers
like all of you!

120
At 00:09:33,281, Character said: We just want something done
about that stinking cesspool!

121
At 00:09:37,911, Character said: We don't care
if it's public works, sanitation,

122
At 00:09:40,747, Character said: public health, or whoever!

123
At 00:09:43,291, Character said: That's for public affairs
to sort out!

124
At 00:09:45,543, Character said: Fine! We're done with you jerks!

125
At 00:09:48,296, Character said: All you do is laugh at us!

126
At 00:09:50,465, Character said: You call this democracy?

127
At 00:09:52,425, Character said: Let's go.

128
At 00:10:08,733, Character said: Please wait a moment.

129
At 00:10:11,319, Character said: I'm afraid our section chief
is out today.

130
At 00:10:14,948, Character said: It would be best
if you could put it in writing.

131
At 00:10:29,587, Character said: Public affairs section chief

132
At 00:10:35,593, Character said: what do you think?

133
At 00:10:37,637, Character said: The section chief
never takes time off.

134
At 00:10:40,723, Character said: Yeah. And he's been
listless recently.

135
At 00:10:45,979, Character said: But what'll we do
if he's out for a long time?

136
At 00:10:50,275, Character said: Exactly.

137
At 00:10:52,152, Character said: He wouldn't take a day off
just for a cold.

138
At 00:10:56,281, Character said: And nothing moves here
without his seal.

139
At 00:10:58,741, Character said: That's right.

140
At 00:11:01,452, Character said: I must say,
it's a terrible shame.

141
At 00:11:06,082, Character said: One more month

142
At 00:11:08,168, Character said: and he'd have set a record

143
At 00:11:10,420, Character said: of 30 years
without a single absence.

144
