I have nothing to contribute to this thread other than the fact that I just came from /o/, and as such misread the op as saying “woman drivers”. I wholly agreed with the sentiment implied with the accompanying pic, and when I realized that op actually typed “Wacom drivers” I found that I still agreed.

What most japanese companies do. They sit around pretending to work until they're boss is ready to leave, then go drinking with coworkers (it's rude to refuse an invitation from your boss), then pretend to have fun until your boss is ready to leave, then come home late at night. Honestly this wouldn't even be that bad if those in charge were actually competent, but no they're just old people who are only in charge because their fathers were.

Also keep in mind the only reason Wacom is THE company to get drawing tablets from is because they had a monopoly due to patent laws. No competition means no alternatives for tablets, either get fucked by Wacom or don't use tablets. Expect Wacom to die out in a decade or so, once current artists get older and start recommending other tablets to the younger generation.
