    One thing I found interesting about Japan, as it speaks volumes about the people in general. There are open shops in that have no staff. Usually, they sell produce. The customer takes what they want and leave the money. Basically, it's on an honour system, and the vast majority of Japanese people comply with the system. That said, I think you deposit the money into a locked box. Let's face it, Japanese people may be honest, but they're not stupid. Free money tempts us all, regardless of race. 🤣
