If you had a hard time going back to work on Tuesday following the long Golden Week holiday period, and even considered handing in your two weeks’ notice right then and there, just know: you weren’t alone.
One of a handful of niche firms in Japan that resigns on behalf of workers said that it received a surge of requests — 174 of them — following the break on Tuesday.
The company, cleverly named Momuri — the Japanese phrase for “I can’t take it anymore” — said this is the highest number of requests it has ever received in a single day since it opened in March 2021.
