Work ethics today vs. work ethics gone by, maybe not gone yet but slowly fading - that's a big topic. I have always loved my work, still do, nowadays maybe just a little bit less than I used to. I'm getting old(er) and like to choose what I work on and I also value my time away from work to do some art or blog here on Hive. But not working for the sake of scrolling through TikTok or the like - uggh - I can't even imagine.
I agree with you that young(er) generations, likely through the constant exposure to social media and to some respect also through the effects of the pandemic have a very different work attitude. Thus workplaces are changing, some of it is for the better, some of it most definitely not. IMO.
Either way, we have to make do with it. Work is important, both for oneself as well as for society as a whole. Unfortunately, corporations more often than not see only the big $$ signs, again, $ are important same as they are for us individually and I feel and hope that some of that corporate thinking is being broken up. Veeeery slowly. And not everywhere but it's a start.
Giving and taking has always been a motto of mine. To me it seems like a lot of younger folks like to take, not so much to give. Not okay in my opinion.
Right, I feel I'm rambling so I'll stop 😀
