The career holds little value
The author recounts the story of a Japanese man named "Shuji" and his experience transforming his job, which initially required little effort, into a profitable career as a companion. He gets paid to accompany people facing loneliness or in need of simple emotional support. Shuji promoted himself on social media and earned over $80,000 in one year by offering companionship services—listening or simply being present—without giving advice or opinions. The writer expresses a desire to emulate such an experience but notes that many officials are often dismissed as holding worthless jobs, a situation common among those labeled as "Shuji." The article highlights the idea of turning simple, traditional work into a source of income, with an emphasis on simplifying the concept of work's value and human relationships.
