This is a really good way to provide jobs for the disabled. They may not be able to move around easily, but their robots can. So this cafe in Tokyo has cleverly enabled around 50 physically disabled employees to work 800km away. They control robots who bring the drinks/food to patrons in the cafe and interact with them. In this way, it is not a “robot” that the patrons interact with, but a real person – how smart! Let’s hope more companies will embrace such concepts and provide such jobs for the physically handicapped.
This lady is 101 yrs old. She continues her work as a lobster catcher way beyond anyone’s retirement age. And she has been happily doing this since she was 7. It is unlikely that you can continue working in a company for as long as you like unless you own it or are related to someone who owns it. So if you are hoping to work way beyond statutory retirement age, it is best that you can turn your hobby into a business, which you can “retire” into. Then you can continue to working for as long as you like to. Do connect with us for a chat if you like to discuss this.
