Japanese CEO gives Employees time off to play Monster Hunter Rise

[Chromie]

Masaki Hiyama, who runs VR development company Mark-on,
posted a tweet
stating that since many Japanese workers take a day off when a new Monster Hunter game is released, he was declaring March 26 "MonHun Day" so they could all stay at home to play.

For a moment I thought that Kevin Butler had returned with a promotion. This guy is a pretty cool boss too though.

OP is so consumed with Monster Hunter that he can't even be bothered to finish the thread title. Now I see why a company would take a day off.

So executives don't work...

Took a day off for Gears 3, The Last of Us and Destiny 2.

Glad the CEO just went ahead and accepted that people will be just looking at the clock just so they can play.
