フリーランスへの転職
Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast.
This is 人並みに花粉症さん。
こんにちは。
毎朝最新エピソードに心躍らせて楽しませていただいております。
私は4年間シフト生で働いていたのですが、 転職を機に土日休みになって1年が経ちました。
平日休みだったのが土日休みになったと。
シフト生の時には長期休みがなかったので、 平日に希望休と有休を合わせて海外旅行に行っていました。
土日休みになってから有休を使わずに 海外旅行を行き放題と思っていたのですが、
ゴールデンウィークやお盆、年末年始は 航空券代が驚くほど跳ね上がるので、
結果少し時期をずらして2回だけ海外旅行に行きました。
あんなに羨ましかった長期休みもどこも混んでいて電車に乗ることも億劫になり、
自分にはシフト生が合っているのかもと思うことがしばしばありました。
お二人は会社員からフリーランスに転職するにあたって期待していたことや、
実際フリーランスになって感じたことなどあれば教えていただきたいです。
これからもずっとお三方の大ファンです。 読んでいただきありがとうございました。
旅行計画の難しさ
ワークキャレンダーのスケジュールは?
そうですね。
それが好きですか?
私も好きです。
どこが好きですか?
雑な雰囲気。
主に雑な雰囲気。
予約が取れる雰囲気。
確かにそうです。
とても同意します。
私も同意します。
とても同意します。
値段はどうですか?
値段はどうですか?
旅行を予定しているときに、
ホテルとか、
フライトとか、
それが加わるんじゃないですか?
それが加わるんじゃないですか?
私も同意します。
大きな旅行ではなくて、
東京のレストランに行ったり、
普通に行ったりするととても簡単です。
平日。
旅行は平日。
実は、
私は誰かをデートしています。
彼はカレンダーで、私はカレンダーで、
そしてフランス人のような人です。
仕事のカレンダーを予定している人とデートするとき、
彼らに調整する必要があります。
実は、
自分の無料の仕事の価値を味わうことができない。
本当にそうです。
自分の無料の仕事の価値を味わうときに。
そうです。
本当にそうです。
私たちはサータデーと水曜日に仕事をするつもりです。
そして、そのまま週末、水曜日に行くつもりです。
そうです。
でも、調整する必要があります。
調整する必要があります。
誰かと一緒に行くとき、調整する必要があります。
そうです。
True.
Yeah.
That's a big one thing.
That's right.
It's a big factor, right?
Yeah.
Or like if you want to hang out with your friends.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.
It's always Saturday, Sundays.
Well, of course, it's natural, but.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
You can't expect, right?
You can't expect them to come at a restaurant, right, Wednesday, 2 p.m., right, to hang out.
You can't do that.
Yeah.
Unfortunately, we have a circle of friends who are freelancers or like non, who has
freedom in their schedule, right?
So that's good.
Yeah.
We're kind of fortunate on that.
We're really lucky.
Yeah.
We can, why don't we do something on a Wednesday from 11 a.m.
That's right.
And people can come.
They can come and that's, yeah.
We're lucky to have that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's true.
Every time I talked about these things to, in the public, they will be like, oh, you're
lucky.
How easy your lives are.
But that doesn't mean that, you know, we have to work.
Right.
That's true.
That doesn't mean we're not working, you know.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
We're working on the Sundays and the Saturdays, right?
Yes.
With our mornings and nights, you know.
That's right.
Yeah.
That's right.
We don't have Teiji guidance.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
You're absolutely right.
Yeah.
So when I was a company employee, we had Teiji, guy named Teiji.
Yeah.
So once Teiji comes and get out from the office, you don't have to think about.
Yeah.
You can forget about everything.
Yeah.
Right.
And just go do whatever you want.
Your problems are gone.
Okay.
And just.
And it's not like that, right?
Yeah.
It's not like that for us.
When you're sleeping, you have to think about that.
Yeah.
I know.
I know.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And especially like, for example, if we do a Kikaku of like one week.
Yeah.
Whatever country.
We can't really eat anything we want, right?
So it's like.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's there.
That's there.
That's a good sign.
Like it's a flip flop.
フリーランスの魅力とコミュニケーションの欠如
You don't say that.
Flip side.
Flip side.
Flip side.
Yeah.
It's like a.
Oh.
It's like a.
It got both sides.
Yeah.
It got both sides.
Yes.
So when I was in company, there was this period that I wanted to work hard.
Okay.
And I want to study more.
Okay.
And I want to be in the office until like midnight.
Okay.
To do things.
But it was.
I couldn't do that.
Because the boss needed me to get out from the office at this time.
Because you can't.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You have to pay for that.
And you know.
Yeah.
And everything like that.
Right.
So like.
Oh.
But now I can do until.
Whenever.
Whenever.
Yeah.
If I want to make music like forever.
That's right.
So that's a good thing.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
But.
Right.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Right.
But if you get to choose.
You would choose the.
Yes.
Freelancer style.
Yes.
I do.
Yeah.
One thing I'm missing is.
Well.
I guess it's.
We can do this by effort maybe.
But colleagues.
Yeah.
The people.
The amount of people that I meet or see regularly.
Is something I'm missing right now.
True.
I loved the office packed of people.
With the company next door.
Like different floors.
Yeah.
And just don't know who that is.
But just you know.
That's something I'm missing now.
Yeah.
You know.
Like the company lunch.
Yeah.
Where you guys sort of talk about shit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Those things.
That doesn't happen.
Yeah.
That's true.
That doesn't happen.
But that's something you can.
You know.
How though?
How though?
For example like.
In my case.
Like trying to find musicians.
And work with them.
And.
I see.
Try to connect with people.
And work with them regularly.
I see.
That's true.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what I do.
But I guess it depends on the work.
Yeah.
It depends on the work you know.
Yeah.
Maybe you don't have to.
Meet any people.
What you need is just you.
You yourself.
And just do it.
Yeah.
And you don't have to.
Right.
Most of those situations might not.
Obligate you to go to the office.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Then thus not be able to create that community.
Right.
Right.
So.
Yeah.
Like natural meetings.
So like.
You know.
Those things are kind of missing.
Yeah.
So.
We should start doing our bitos.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean.
I mean.
Taimi.
タイミーの利点
Yes.
That's.
I think we should do Taimi.
Right.
We don't have to be committed.
In this whole relationship.
With the.
With the adbito right.
When they sayo.
We can't just quit.
Right.
After three shifts.
We can't do that.
It's irresponsible.
Right.
Taimi.
You could go one.
And then you could be done forever.
And that's completely fair.
You could join a community.
That easily.
That's good.
With Taimi.
That's good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
To do that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know this meme on maybe X.
Okay.
Probably X.
Of like.
The worst thing.
That.
That the.
タイミーの業務開始の困難
The actual adbito.
So this.
This comes from the actual adbito people.
The worst thing they can hear.
Yeah.
On the day.
During their shift is.
Taimi.
Okay.
That's the worst part.
Start of a disaster.
They don't know nothing.
Yeah.
They can't.
They have zero knowledge.
They have to train him.
And then he's going to be gone forever.
After that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Disastrous start of the day is what they said.
But I can imagine.
Yeah.
That happening.
I don't want Taimi guy in my company.
That's right.
Me too.
That's.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I get it.
I get it right.
I understand it.
True.
Yeah.
So true.
Yeah.
Thanks for sending guys.
Thank you.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye.
