Apr 16 (soranews24.com) - Hikari Aizuma helps workers stay sharp and maintain a balanced lifestyle while working from home.
Like a lot of companies, Japanese tech firm Gatebox has its employees working from home these days, as opposed to having them commute to the office in downtown Tokyo during the coronavirus pandemic. However, while the employees’ familiarity with modern technology means they’re not having any problems with the technical aspects of telecommuting, there are some psychological issues the company is worried about.
Working from home can be a silent, solitary way to spend the day, with a lack of verbal communication creating a feeling of isolation. In addition, not having anyone else around you can make it hard to regulate your time, both in terms of flipping the switch and getting into mental work mode in the morning and clocking out when the day is done, as well as taking proper breaks to ward off stress and exhaustion.
So to help “address those issues cutely,†Gatebox has done what it does best: combine technology and a love of cute anime girls to provide virtual companionship in the at-home office.
