Work with some men is as besetting a sin as idleness.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Idleness is a constant sin, and labor is a duty. Idleness is the devil's home for temptation and for unprofitable, distracting musings; while labor profit others and ourselves.
Men have the power of thinking that they may avoid sin.
It is the idle man, not the great worker, who is always complaining that he has no time or opportunity.
Obviously I've spent most of my working life with men and they have this way of operating which seems a bit alien to me.
You cannot work with men who won't work with you.
Let's face it: men do a lot of things in the workplace that women just don't do.
Men are allowed to have passion and commitment for their work... a woman is allowed that feeling for a man, but not her work.
Look at the means which a man employs, consider his motives, observe his pleasures. A man simply cannot conceal himself!
A man is not idle because he is absorbed in thought. There is a visible labor and there is an invisible labor.
Like every man of sense and good feeling, I abominate work.
