With the holiday season fast approaching, if you haven’t yet found a drinking partner, your chances of actually finding one in time for the celebrations are getting very slim. But no need to worry, a Ukrainian firm has come up with the perfect solution – you can hire a drinking buddy.
The “employer” will definitely get his money’s worth, as this firm not only offers a swell drinking companion but someone with whom you can engage in conversations about all kinds of different subjects, like sports, politics, art, philosophy and even women.
The Kind Fairy used to be just another firm specialized in organizing weddings and birthday parties, but ever since they launched their “drinking buddy for hire” service, last December, business has really taken off. The fact that most of their drinkers have different talents, like singing, reciting poems or playing the guitar, offering a variety of choices that guarantee they will be able to liven-up employers’ evening, is considered partially responsible for the success.
But there is also a less obvious reason why people like this weird service – there are those who still consider therapy taboo and would much rather discuss their problems with a stranger than seeing a psychologist.
Yulia Peyeva, head of the Kind Fairy, claims the services offered by her firm are nothing like dating or matchmaking, nor do they encourage heavy drinking. Right, like Ukrainians need encouragement to drink heavily…
