[COSTCO SUBS PRESENTS]
[Previously unaired footage]
My name is Toshiyuki Niino and I'm 30 years old.
I run my own company.
We offer a service called "EXIT."
[ABOUT YOUR COMPANY] In one sentence,
we're an agency that helps people quit their jobs
and it's the first of its kind in Japan.
We support people who want to quit but can't do it on their own.
To be exact, we don't quit for them.
They let their employer know by sending them a resignation letter
and we take care of the rest.
We contact the office for them, for instance.
[WHY YOU DECIDED TO START YOUR BUSINESS] I used to be an office worker.
I've worked with three different companies and quit each time
and it was incredibly hard for me to quit.
Letting them know was especially hard. Incredibly hard.
It's very uncomfortable, embarrassing, and scary.
There were many reasons why I couldn't tell them.
And even after I somehow managed to tell them,
they always tried to hold me.
Like, "Can't you stay for three more months?"
or, "Please stay until we find someone to replace you."
So it was really hard to quit.
And it wasn't just me.
When we were drinking, everyone said they wanted to quit, too.
But not many can actually put that into action.
So after having experienced all of this,
I realized that there's a demand for support in this process
and I started my business.
[REASON FOR JOINING TH] My main reason for joining
is that I want to introduce "EXIT" to a lot of people.
I want people who suffer like I did because they can't quit their jobs to know
that there is a service that supports them in this process.
That is the main reason.
The reality is that there are people whose lives are at stake because of this
which is a big problem
and I hope this service can contribute to finding a solution for this.
But I also just hope to meet someone nice.
[YOUR TYPE] I... guess I like girls
who never stop smiling.
My emotions don't show on my face,
so I find people fascinating who show a lot of emotions.
When I see someone smile, I become more positive.
I like it when a girl laughs at something I said casually.
Out of the past TH members...
I'm not sure I remember her name correctly,
but there was this model called Risako. She...
went on dates with Kyujitsu Kacho.
Visually, she's my type.
[YOUR DATING STYLE] I'm very straightforward.
It's the opposite of how I used to be. I went to an all-boys school.
And I couldn't talk to girls at all.
Contrary to that, I'm super straightforward now.
I usually tell them directly how I feel.
I might even tell her I love her on the first date.
[YOUR WEAKNESSES] I'm full of flaws.
The reason I started my own business was--
Of course, I thought I could help people quit their jobs
and that there's a demand for that.
But I also just can't get out of bed in the morning.
Starting work at 9 in the morning is impossible for me.
That's another reason why I started my own business.
As a person, I'm a failure.
I'm full of imperfections.
When I had a date with my girlfriend,
I'd get up at the time we were supposed to meet.
It got better over time, though.
But I still have a very hard time getting up compared to the average person.
[AGE GAP WITH OTHER HOUSEMATES] I might be the oldest in this particular house.
I think I'm probably--
I'll be the one who's expected to offer support and guidance.
But I don't amount to much.
I'm really just a kid inside.
On the positive side, I'll be able to talk to everyone on the same level.
But they might go like, "Even though he's 30 years old, he's not very mature."
I'm scared they'll think like that.
If there's someone in the house who hasn't found their goal or dream yet,
I'd like to give them some advice.
I used to be a NEET myself for a long time.
There was a time when I wasn't thinking about anything.
But now that I've found something that I want to do,
I can work hard for it.
So by talking to them about these things in depth,
maybe I can help them figure out what they want to do.
This might be the value that I'd be able to add to the table.
