<p>There is a part-time job that is currently attracting a lot of attention among comedians as a way to &#8220;sell if you work. Last year&#8217;s M-1 finalist Tomoshige (40) of Mogrider, Shigesumi Kawakita (33) of Vacuum Jessica, Chance Oshiro (47), and others work for a temporary staffing company called ZONE International Inc. The company is led by Satoshi Kobayashi (50), former WKA Muay Thai world lightweight champion.</p>
<h3> Chance Oshiro (47)</h3>

<p> How did this legend who led the Japanese kickboxing world from his debut in 1988 to his retirement in 2007 become the president of a &#8220;successful part-time job&#8221;? The kicker was the dissolution of the All Japan Kickboxing Federation (all statements in parentheses below are by Mr. Kobayashi).</p>
<p><strong> In 2009, the federation I was involved with as GM collapsed. When I was at my wits&#8217; end, an acquaintance introduced me to my current job, and I took over the company. My job is landscaping, but I am basically a jack-of-all-trades. I clean up trash at cherry blossom viewing parties and weed whackers in the park.</strong></p>
<p> The number of comedians has increased since the company hired KICK☆ (42), a pin comedian who is a close friend of the company. Currently, there are more than 20 part-time workers, about 60% of whom are comedians. About 60% are comedians. Kawakita and Chance Oshiro have been with the company for seven to eight years, and Tomoshige for five years.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><strong> All three are too busy to take shifts now, but they remain on the roster. Chance makes the scene exciting anyway. When I ask him if he wants to see a story, he gives it his all, even though it&#8217;s not on TV (laughs). Of course, they do their job well. When we were short on staff, Chance even recruited people through his social networking site. I can only be grateful. <br>
</strong></p>
<p><strong> Kawakita is serious. He does every job without complaint, so he is well-liked by the people in charge at the site. He is taciturn, but he never compromises on anything.</strong></p>
<p> On the other hand, Tomoshige had a hard time.</p>
<p><strong> He is a habitual tardy criminal. One time, he was late for the morning meeting, and when he went home to take a nap during his break, he was late for the noon start time as well. I said to him, &#8220;Who would be late twice in one day? I said angrily. He must have thought it was a bad idea to be half-hearted, since he had no stage work at Corona and his personal life was also busy with his engagement. After that, I started coming 30 minutes early, no matter how far away the site was.</strong></p>
<p> Why is it that Mr. Kobayashi&#8217;s part-timers are always producing successful young people one after another? One of the reasons is his own experience of working his way up the ladder.</p>
<p><strong> For the first 10 years after I started martial arts, I had to work part-time and compete at the same time. I understand that you can&#8217;t go to your part-time job because of urgent work. That&#8217;s why I put my main job first. If I get a job, I tell them, &#8216;I&#8217;ll make it work, so go ahead. We also go camping together twice a year. We also have a lot of drinking parties, and it seems to be a good place to exchange information. I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ve sold well because I worked at our company, but I guess that&#8217;s a plus. <br>
</strong></p>
<p><strong> Recently, there was something that made me happy. When I met Tomoshige in June of this year, he suddenly said to me, &#8216;I owe my current success to Mr. Kobayashi. Well, I guess he was just being social (laughs). (Laughs.) But I was a little touched to hear that Tomoshige could say such a thing.</strong></p>
<p> Making shifts is hard! Kobayashi-san talks about the comedians with a smile on his face while blurting out, &#8220;It&#8217;s hard to make shifts! Kobayashi has no intention of changing his style in the future.</p>
<p><strong> I want to continue to see someone else spread their wings from here on out,&#8221; he says. I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing someone else&#8217;s career. They are serious about their work and their stories are really funny. I can&#8217;t wait to see them sell out!</strong></p>
<p> Behind the success of these comedians of the moment lies the existence of Mr. Kobayashi, who supports them as a &#8220;great trainer.</p>
<h3> Tomo Shige (40) of Mog Rider <br>
Acha Masanobu (36) of &#8220;Japaneses</h3>
<p> Tomo Shige was a tardy worker when he was first hired, and Acha was diligent from the start. Although they were often working at distant sites, neither of them ever complained.</p>

<h3> Shigeto Kawakita of &#8220;Vacuum Jessica&#8221; (33)</h3>
<p> Kawakita says he has never attended a drinking party. He was never a prominent figure, but his diligent work ethic was highly regarded on the job site.</p>
