    Non-related companies would trade employees on a short-term basis (say 2 weeks) so that they can experience another career without the fear of losing their jobs.

          The boss of TECO Corp.[^] runs MOS Burger[^]. The engineer employees of TECO have to work as the clerks at MOS Burger to sell hamburgers for couple days or weeks per year.

                    Surely same pay!! It's the yearly routine training to the engineers of TECO. The boss hopes the engineers to get themselves as part of the crowd (not sure how to express this in English), to learn the reception manner; Not just wrestling and fighting with machine everyday (for example, sit in front of the screen and do the coding for the whole day long).

                    He wants them to have contact with real people instead of just their machines? That is very cruel. :)

                      Always take your hobbies seriously. What you enjoy in life is as important as anything else, and if you decide that you enjoy something more, head that direction as a career. I am interested in all you mentioned plus more, I find ways to work it into my own work too. _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.
