Script

おはようございます。日本語だんだんpodcastのゆかりです。

10月31日はハロウィンですね。
　
毎年(まいとし)、渋谷(しぶや)にはたくさんの仮装(かそう)した人があつまります。

"仮装する"については、前のポットキャストではなしましたね。

ただ、今年(ことし)の渋谷(しぶや)の
ハロウィンはちょっと、ちがいます。

今年のハロウィンのあいだは、
外でお酒(さけ)をのむことは、
禁止(きんし)になりました。

禁止とは、してはいけないことです。

道(みち)や公園(こうえんで)
お酒をのむことができません。

それから、渋谷区(しぶやく)の区長(くちょう)が、

「ハロウィンに、渋谷にこないでください。」
といっています。

"こないで"とは、いま自分のいるばしょに、きてほしくないときに、いいます。

たとえば、ともだちに、

「私のへやはきたないから、今日はあそびにこないでね。」

と、いいます。

たくさんの人がくると、あぶないですね。

そのために、ハロウィンは渋谷にこないで、といっています。

いま、日本にいる人は
気をつけてくださいね。

では、今日も、最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだん、です！

また明日。

¿BOLÍGRAFO O TECLADO, CUÁL ES MEJOR?

Cam Fairbairn was working in restaurants when he started a side hustle — work he did on top of his regular job — making and selling his own jam.

Making jam was a hobby, but he'd been encouraged by a friend to make it an extra source of income.

However, he soon stopped enjoying it when his hobby became a business. He went back to focusing on his day job.

But not everyone is so lucky. For some, a side hustle is not just a good way to make extra money from something you love — it's a necessity.

Shonnita Leslie had big education debts to pay, so while she was working at a university during the day, her side hustle was delivering food. She needed the extra money to pay off those debts.

And according to new data, Leslie is not alone.

A survey by Bankrate found that more than one third of Americans have a side hustle. Among those aged between 18 and 27, it's 48%.

Of the Americans with a side job, 36% use that extra money to pay for daily necessities like housing and food. And 32% said they think they'll always need a side hustle to make ends meet.

"People are telling us they're side hustling because they have to, not because they want to," Ted Rossman from Bankrate told CNBC.

The survey of more than 2,300 Americans also found that about 28% of people with a side hustle make at least $500 per month from their second job. Around 9% of people said they make more than $2,000.

In today's fast-paced and competitive job market, finding the right talent is essential for any organization's success. While evaluating a candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience is important, it is equally important for HR managers to evaluate cultural fit. 

Cultural fit is the degree to which a candidate's values, work style, and personality align with the culture and values of the organization.

HR managers evaluate cultural fit because it can have a significant impact on a candidate's job performance, job satisfaction, and overall success in the role. 

When a candidate fits in with the organization's culture, they are more likely to be engaged, motivated, and committed to their work. This can lead to better performance, increased productivity, and a positive impact on the organization's bottom line.

Cultural fit also promotes a positive work environment, where employees feel comfortable, supported, and valued. When employees share common values and work styles, they are more likely to collaborate effectively and work together towards common goals. 

This can create a sense of unity and team spirit, which can boost morale and lead to a more positive work culture.

In conclusion, evaluating cultural fit is an important part of the hiring process. HR managers must carefully evaluate a candidate's values, work style, and personality to determine whether they will fit in with the organization's culture. This can help to foster a positive work environment, increase employee engagement and productivity, and ultimately contribute to the organization's success.
