比闹钟更管用:日本渔民负责每天叫你起床
闹钟都叫不醒你?你可以试试“真人叫早”服务。每天清晨来自海上的日本渔民会准点把你叫醒,说不定你还能从电话那头听到美妙的海风声,更棒的是,这项服务完全免费。 Waking up in the morning is tough, and sometimes a ringing alarm clock just isn’t enough to jolt you out of a blissful slumber. Luckily, snoozers in Japan now have a better alternative – an energy-inducing phone call from a fisherman at sea. Fisherman Japan, an organization whose main purpose is to make fishing cool again, recently launched an interesting wake-up call service aimed at people who have trouble waking up in the morning. Called Fisherman Call, the service literally has Japanese fishermen from the Sanriku region – one of the world’s top three fishing grounds – call registered users at a specified time to wake them up and strike up a short conversation that is sure to get them out of bed and boost their energy level for the entire day. Sounds awesome! Fisherman Call is a free service. All you have to do is register online and provide your name, phone number and the time you would like to be called by the fisherman. You can even select a specific fisherman from several profiles listed online. You can see a picture of each one of the available fishermen, check out their work schedule and even listen to a recording of their voice to see if it’s the first thing you want to hear in the morning. Then, all you have to do is go to sleep. Most of the fishermen provided by Fisherman Call wake up at the crack of dawn, and complete most of their daily work by 6 am, so however early you plan on waking up, they’ll probably be able to help you do it. 到底这个渔民叫早电话是什么样的呢?日本渔民组织发布了一个推广视频,模拟了对话场景: Boy: Hello… Fisherman: Morning! How are you feeling this fine day? Boy: Good, thanks. Are you on a boat right now? Fisherman: Yeah, I woke up at three and came out to sea. Boy: Th… three?!?! Fisherman: We caught a huge fish this morning, I’ll send you a picture. Boy: Thank you! In case you’re wondering, yes, Fisherman Call is a real service, but it’s part of a PR campaign that aims to connect Japanese youth with the dwindling workforce of one of the oldest professions in the country. Spoon & Tamago reports that the fisherman won’t try to recruit you during the morning phone conversation, but the idea is to raise people’s interest in the fishing industry. Apparently, it’s already working. |
