Women’s Career Change Type Editor-in-Chief Kayoko Kobayashi
With 16.3% of people giving chocolate to their co-workers on Valentine’s Day, it seems that the custom of so-called obligatory chocolate, which was common a while ago, is fading somewhat. On the other hand, one in four people buy chocolate for themselves, and the purchase price is higher than for their lover/spouse, so it seems that Valentine’s Day is becoming more of a “reward” for those who work hard each day. I can see it.
According to the “Do you reward yourself?” survey conducted last year (https://woman-type.jp/academia/discover-career/data/vol-79/), rewarding yourself is No. 1. was “sweets”. The most common time to reward people is when they are under stress, and when asked whether rewarding themselves affects their motivation to work, about 80% of people answered that it does. It would be great if you could use it as an opportunity to change your mind and relax.
Regarding the custom of giving chocolates on Valentine’s Day at work, 60% of respondents answered, “If you want to do it, you should do it.” In addition to negative opinions such as “It feels like a burden,” there were also many positive opinions and free comments such as “I would be happy to receive it” and “It’s fun and fun.” Although Valentine’s Day at the workplace is not compulsory, it may be a good idea to use it as an opportunity to express your daily gratitude regardless of gender or position, and to improve
communication in the workplace.
