A melancholic term “May Blues” isn’t new, instead everyone has an experience to hear this word many times without fail, so there used to be numerous workers, whose working term amounts to less two months till their resignation, in those days.

There is a company named “moumuri,” meaning that a worker cannot stand at this company any longer.”
This company exists for a worker, who wants to leave his or her company without any courages to submit a resignation letter directly to his or her supervisors.

Whether this company is “a messiah” or “a miser” depends on God’s decision and actually does matter in our society.
