Yui avoids overtime by being highly productive during her actual working hours.
Yui eventually helps Mitani realize that hyper-fixation on work is not the only way to show dedication and that taking breaks is essential for health.
In this episode, Yui faces conflict with her colleague , whose rigid work ethic stems from a traumatic past at a previous job where she was bullied for taking time off.
Mitani views Yui's punctuality as a lack of responsibility and tries to force her "perfect attendance" mindset on new employees.
The show criticizes the Japanese culture of "presenteeism"—staying late just to look busy.
The drama highlights the difference between Yui’s boundary-setting and her father’s generation, who prioritized work above all else. Watashi, Teiji de Kaerimasu (TV Series 2019– ) - IMDb
