Im starting a service . . . available for any situation in which all you want is a person to be there. Maybe theres a restaurant you want to go to, but you feel awkward going on your own.
Maybe a game you want to play, but youre one person short.
Or perhaps youd like someone to keep a space in the park for your cherry blossom viewing party . . .
Shoji Morimoto was constantly being told by his boss that he contributed nothing to the company he worked for and that it made no difference whether he showed up or not. He began to wonder whether a person who does nothing could still have value and a place in the world. Perhaps he could turn doing nothing into a service? With one tweet, Rental Person was born.
Morimoto, aka Rental Person, provides a fascinating service to the lonely and socially anxious.
