Q: What year did you join the company and why?
Joined the company in 2021. I love making things, so I changed jobs from carpentry.
Q: What do you do for a living?
I am assembling furniture at the Kochi factory. There are many things I did not experience in my previous job, such as joining hardwood boards together, and I am finding the manufacturing process enjoyable.
Q: What do you find rewarding?
New systems are being introduced in the company, and changes such as changes to manufacturing methods occur just as I'm getting used to it, so it's tough, but I'm looking forward to the stimulating nature of it all. I love making things, so I feel very rewarded when I see what I've created take shape. I also want to work hard to balance my work and family life.
Q: Message to those considering joining the company
I used wood when I was a carpenter, but in my current job I use more than 20 different types of wood. Each type of wood has its own warping and movement characteristics, which gives it a sense of depth. I think it's perfect for carpenters and people in technical jobs, so please consider it.
