Karoshi (Kah-Roe-She)

When I first read about Karoshi, I thought it was one of those "hoax" sites that put up false news to make you laugh together with them at the unexplainable behaviour of the human species.

Apparently not. Karoshi, or "Death From Overwork", according to 1990 statistics has been claiming up to 10,000 lives annually. I don't have the figures for this millenium, but believe it or not, there's actually a site delivering news of people who are worked to death.
