The problem is not the occupation, but how people deal with it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
In our production-oriented society, being busy, having an occupation, has become one of the main ways, if not the main way, of identifying ourselves. Without an occupation, not just our economic security but our very identity is endangered.
If you're in your early 20s and you're hanging out with a bunch of other people in their early 20s, nobody has a sense of the kinds of problems that real 'workers' run into every day. They're running into a completely different set of problems like 'What's the party going on right now that I should be going to?'
As a modern employer you have to treat people well.
Well, in our business, it's a very tough profession.
People have an awful lot of problems that society has put on them and a lot to work through because of it.
Work ends up dehumanizing people.
A lot of people don't enjoy their jobs, and it's one of the main things we like to complain about.
There are times that everyone hates his or her job. Were they freed from the economic consequences of having these jobs, they'd drop out of the workforce. There are only two problems with this strategy: First, someone has to pay for it; second, it is not the recipe for human fulfillment.
Working people have alot of bad habits, but the worst of these is work.
The issue isn't just jobs. Even slaves had jobs. The issue is wages.
