Rule no.1 - There are no friends in work, there are only work friends
Rule no.2 - Never complain about work with coworkers

This 2 simple rules can get you out of so many unnecessary dramas and troubles... I can't even count how many times I was saved by those. Thank god I had so good mentor in my 1st job.

There's an older German song called "Das bißchen Haushalt ... sagt mein Mann" which talks about how women shouldn't complain about what they have in life compared to the men. Mitsuya's complaints about work and how it's so easy to be a man reminded me of the song and how there's a bit of irony both in the song and her comments of the ignorance of being so confident in saying that women or men have it easier.

I'd only change Rule 1 in: triple check or quadra check if your coworker can be friends or just coworkers. Some people are genuine enough that you can find a real friend even in work environment.
Rule 2 is sacrosant

Then there's the hidden rule 3; never be the supervisor/manager for your friends if you work together

Okay, several points.

1. The complete lack of empathy for men and thinking men have it the best even though in these working conditions it's common place for men to be over worked. There's a reason it's a trope that men get more work piled on thier plate than women and that men tend to stay later into the night than women to get all the work other's can't do done.

2. Once again ignoring women's bitching. This treats women like angels while ignoring women berating, complaining, bitching, nagging, lying, backstabbing, betraying, and gossiping while we have women gossiping in this very chapter. Men are awful for the complaining they do, but we can't get a chapter with the female cast without them ragging on their significant other.

3. She's says this from her cushy office job. Would love to see this energy when talking about electricians, mechanics, construction, or plumbing. Or you know, any other hard, laborious or life threatening job men do.

A manga highlighting differences between men and women. I wonder how slanted it's going to be.

"Naturally, compared to the women, there won't be many stories of limitations or disadvantages 'just because we're men'."
Of course not. If you say men have it worse than women in anything you're likely to get cancelled. Though it's been changing recently, even if Japan isn't on the bus. They still have a culture of women quitting jobs to take care of children, which has a ton of effects on how people act and various other things.

Yeah, pretty much as expected. Treating an individual workplace's culture as a "men's" thing, while ignoring what we've heard the women talk about.

there's a bit of irony both in the song and her comments of the ignorance of being so confident in saying that women or men have it easier.
Yeah, most people who say one way or the other just have no idea what it's like on the other side of the fence. Different genders, different problems. Usually.
