Most of the traditional conservative mindset will tell you that there’s a time to work and a time to play. This goes all the way back to biblical times and became the crux of a passage which in the 1960s was turned into a popular song. But since the 1980s the concept has been taken to extreme where the most likely scenario for rising midlife Boomers was that they’ve probably got their heads down to concentrate on their work. Sharp contrast to the mindset of the free love days. Also made liars out of a lot of futurists who has predicted a trend toward ever increasing leisure. Still waiting. More than likely in today’s workplace you don’t have time to waste talking about what needs to be finished with colleagues; you focus on the job and get it done. That’s what I try my darnedest to do on my food deliveries. Many lament the loss of the proverbial pat on the back for a job well done. That’s why I started a thread here about overturning at will employment. But I would be surprised if anything will happen anytime soon as no policy makers even bring this up. Something would need to be done at the federal level for it to succeed I do believe.
