The Day Two Men at Rock Bottom Started with Part-Time Work
When I met our Senior Managing Director, I was in the hardest stretch of my own life — and he was at rock bottom too. Two people at the bottom usually just lick each other's wounds. Not us. "Let's climb up together!" — we worked part-time jobs side by side while stacking up challenge after challenge.
The chairman and senior director of a Nasdaq-listed company once worked part-time jobs together; I hide none of it. Starting from the bottom grants two strengths: little fear of losing, and absolute proof of who your real companions are.
If you are at the bottom now, note well who stands beside you — that person will become your life's treasure.
What do you work for?
— Tomoki Nagano, Chairman & CEO, INSTINCT BIO TECHNICAL COMPANY (NASDAQ: BIOT)
