A: Hey! Did you see that weird article about quitting jobs in Japan?

B: No! What’s it about?

A: It’s about this company called Momuri. It helps people quit their jobs! Like, they do it *for* you.

B: Wow! Really? That's so Japanese! Quitting can be so awkward here, right?

A: Totally! It's hard to just tell your boss you're leaving. Momuri handles everything – the paperwork, the message… everything!

B: That's crazy! How much does it cost?

A: Around $80 to $150 US dollars, I think. But get this...

B: What?

A: Companies are *asking* Momuri to contact their employees and suggest they quit!

B: Seriously?! They want Momuri to basically *pressure* people to quit?

A: Apparently! It's because directly firing someone is considered really bad here. It’s frowned upon.

B: So, companies use Momuri to avoid looking bad? Sneaky!

A: Yeah, like, they want the employee to *think* it's their idea to leave.

B: That’s kind of… unethical, isn't it? Sounds like harassment.

A: Exactly! Momuri hasn’t actually *done* it yet, just says they get the requests. They're trying to stay just a quitting proxy.

B: Still wild! So, Momuri helps people quit, and *also* gets requests to push people to quit!

A: It’s a really interesting look at Japanese work culture, huh?
