gmat Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Tired of teleworking from home? Get a change of atmosphere by working in an express train! A N'EX train will be available as for people to rent a space/seat as a work station. Only two day, though. At Ryogoku Station. https://soranews24.com/2020/11/25/tired-of-teleworking-from-home-get-a-change-of-atmosphere-by-working-in-an-express-train/ Grant 3 Link to post
