Karoushi

過労死（かろうし）Karoushi
Gosh man! what is this. This is what we call Work Until You Die.

We can over work until we get killed. Well as I always say, there is a time to rest, work and everything. Shouldn't eat into each allocated time slot. If the the homeostasis mechanism will go bizarre.

Karōshi (過労死, karōshi), which can be translated quite literally from Japanese as "death from overwork", is occupational sudden death. The major medical causes of karōshi deaths are heart attack and stroke due to stress.

Bereaved Japan mother angered by deadly overwork
TOKYO - A JAPANESE woman hit out at corporate bosses this week, after her restaurant manager son died of a brain haemorrhage having done 200 hours of overtime in a month.
The case is the latest of hundreds of deaths a year officially determined to have been caused by the hardships of working for Japanese companies, where overtime is a matter of course and holidays few and far between.
