It’s 4:30 p.m. on a Friday as Vaino walks into a neighborhood café to catchup with Sofia Korhonen, a friend and an ex-colleague. Vaino is a shift supervisor at Finland’s best-known logistics company. Until six months ago, Sofia and Vaino worked together at their Punavuori depot in Helsinki.

"It was so stressful, I'm happy I left", she shudders, sipping the Olvi. “It is much better now”, smiles Vaino.
