(96,750 posts)If I defined a work ethic with my parents thinking then it isn't.
It's not the idea of a work ethic for many people. It's not what I was taught.
Doesn't mean it isn't a work ethic. Just means it is a different work ethic.
A different take on how working should be - the relationship between worker and management, worker/productivity, the relationship between work and social/home/life.
There's a difference between having the phone at work and still getting the job done, and using the phone to the exclusion of the job.
I trust people to know the difference. And if they don't, I'm sure the expected will happen. (firing)
I trust the generations coming after me. Sure, I roll my eyes from time to time but, by and large, I marvel at the world they will grow up, and old, in.
I'm sure those that came before me complained about my generation. In fact, I know they did.
