【Cantonese News】"Pretend to Work Company" is Hot: Is Paying to Work Worth a Try? _Bilibili

Last year, I saw many people pretending to work in cafes and libraries.
This year, I feel like they have been pretending for almost a year.
I didn't expect to see a news article yesterday.
The "Pretend to Work Company" has emerged.
Starting from an entry-level fee of 18 yuan per day,
to professional levels where they pay you a salary and deduct insurance, of course, the salary and insurance are prepaid by you.
You also have to pay a service fee, ranging from hundreds to thousands of yuan.
Pretend you have never been unemployed,
never had a break in social insurance.
In the future, companies will see you as a hot commodity, always working.
The social indicators are also good,
reducing the unemployment rate.
Some companies that can't continue
have started new businesses.
I wonder if in the future,
there will be a company called
Virtual Work Company,
no need for VR glasses, holographic real performances,
perform well and you get paid.
