“Part-time jobs,” which involve working short periods of time at different locations each day at a time of your choosing, are becoming more common among the elderly. The background to this is the difficulty elderly people have in working and the labor shortage in society. “I’m happy to be working. I want to continue for another 10 years.” A woman (70) from Itabashi Ward, Tokyo, has been using the part-time job matching app “Timee” almost every day for about a year and a half. I have already been to work 480 times. He is said to stand out among the 50,000 registered members aged 65 and over. The average work time is 4 hours per day. Each time, they will report to the workplace they applied for via the app and perform tasks such as washing dishes at a restaurant, stocking shelves at a supermarket, and bagging vegetables. I couldn’t find a job, and I have a cat at home

Can a 70-year-old person work?
The government should make effective use of human resources such as NEETs and the unemployed.
Specifically, they should be advised to work.
If they refuse, they should be thrown into a forced labor facility.
This can only be good for social safety.

Is it illegal to work as a day laborer unless you’re over 60?
If you’re 70, it’s legal.

If this is what happens to people in their 70s who are still enjoying the benefits of pensions
The Ice Age generation must work until the day they die.

Even if it’s only 500 yen, it’s still a payment
In other words, it’s getting to the point where you have to work until you’re 80 to survive.

There are a lot of them.
You don’t need 6 or 8 hours, but there is a high demand for people to do odd jobs for 2 or 3 hours.

If you’re in retirement and don’t have enough money for hobbies, it’s better to keep working so you don’t become senile.

I’m torn between the desire to quit work as soon as I turn 65 and spend the rest of my life doing what I like and having fun, but the fear that if I actually do that, I’ll get bored of it within a year or two and have to go back to work.

It’s about having something you love enough to do every day. I think maybe I like it because I do it occasionally,
but if I had to do it every day it would become painful.

Long periods are tough for the elderly
If you’re doing it as a way to build up your stamina and earn some extra cash instead of going for a walk, 4 hours is the limit.

That’s because they have decent welfare, unlike Japan.
The reality is that Japan is a savage country with high taxes and low welfare, thanks to the upper classes taking advantage of the middlemen.

If the elderly don’t do something, they’ll be too bored and die. This is many times better than having your life insurance company go to the pachinko parlor.

If it’s a part-time job, interpersonal relationships don’t seem to matter that much, so it’s fine to just go and get some daily cash.
