静かな値上げ|Price Increase Quietly|2021/02/10
雨の日と、二日酔いの日と、仕事が早い日をのぞいて朝ジムに行く。といっても5分程度身体を動かすくらいだ。筋力アップ、健康増進というよりも夜中のラーメンやケーキに対する罪悪感への緩和剤的な利用だ。ジムの中は派手なポスターが多い。パーソナルトレーニングコースや、水素水のお知らせ、最近ではマスクや除菌をしてくださいというものもある。その中でひっそり小さな文字だけのポスターがあったので逆に目をひいた。ジムの会員費の値上げの告知だ。営業時間も短くなってるのにと思ったら、「コロナ対策等に経費がかさみ、事業を継続するためにも断腸の思いで」と書いてある。まぁそれなら仕方ないか...。いろんなところでこういう値上げが増えてくるだろうなぁ。(絵と文:サカキテツ朗)
I go to the gym in the morning except for rainy days, hangover days, and early work days. It takes about only 5 minutes to move my body. Rather than strengthening muscles and improving health, it is used as a palliative for feeling guilty about eating noodles and cakes in the middle of the night. There are many flashy posters in the gym. They are posters for personal training courses, hydrogen water announcements, and requesting masks and sterilization. Among them, there was a poster with only small letters, so I caught my eye. It's an announcement of an increase in membership fee. When I thought that the business hours were getting shorter, it said, "The cost of corona countermeasures is high, and we want to continue the business." Well then it can't be helped ... I think this kind of price increase will increase in various fields. -Text and illustration by Ted Sakaki
