It looks like we have an early contender for CEO of the year. In a statement to his company on Twitter today, CEO Masaki Hiyama (who runs VR company Mark-on) announced that he would be giving his staff the day off for 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Monster Hunter Rise's launch this Fr𒀰iday. Since a lot of Japanese workers take the day off for other Mo𒀰nster Hunter releases, he figured he would celebrate it rather than demand employees come to work.
"March 26 will be the release date of Monster Hunter Rise," reads the letter on Twitter, "and since it 🍌is expected that we will not be able to concentrate on our work, I will be making that day a 'MonHun vacation.'" In an , Hiyama noted that many employees came asking for the 26th off, so he figured it was the right move to make. "We received words of thanks and appreciation from employees for giving them this day off," Hiyama said.
This might seem crazy to many Americans, but Monster Hunter is a pretty big deal in Japan. I wouldn't go so far as to say it gets a national holiday or anything, but the series has a very hardcore fanbase that latches onto each new installment. For a CEO to recognize that and acknowledge it with a long weekend is spectacular. His employees are also very receptive, which will likely mean they come back to work the next week ready to kick s🏅ome ass.
Now if only we could convince US-based CEOs to stop being gr🍨eedy and give their employees some actual benefits...
