Who doesn't love a good moan?
Well, if you're happy to pay for the opportunity, Japan offers a cheap way for you to get all your grievances off your chest.Â
'Ossan Rental' was launched by fashion consultant Takanobu Nishimoto back in 2012, and for just $14 an hour, or 1,000 yen, you can hire an 'Ossan' who will listen to all your complaints and moanings.
The Ossan will also do other chores, like help you move or tidy, or can even escort you to the movies or theatre.
Nishimoto says he wanted to remove the negative stigma around Ossan, which is a Japanese world meaning uncle or middle-aged man.Â
