There is news about the discomfort with traditional employment in corporations. Further evidence of this situation, according to this report Sheetis a , British writer and researcher on the future of work, transformed into a spokesperson for the dissatisfied masses.
McCann, 24, considers that corporate employment involves workers in “non-problems” that generate chain reactions without practical effect and rationality.
Well, the imposition of ineffective bureaucratic routines in companies is a known fact. Due to inertia, useless procedures are repeated that demonstrate commitment and zeal for the search for results, but are self-enclosed rituals. They could very well be abolished. But is that all?
The perception of wasting time and energy on tasks whose practical purposes and effects are not clearly identifiable certainly predates the sensitivity of generation Z.
Let’s look at the old Marxist concept, from the 19th century, of alienation from work, described as follows by one of these AIs available in the square: “It is the separation of the worker from the entire production process, from creation to the final product. It manifests itself when the worker does not recognize himself in the product he creates, as his activity is reduced to repetitive and fragmented tasks, without control over the process or creativity, which leads him to see work only as a means of subsistence. This idea is central in the theory of Karl Marx.”
Welcome to the capitalist world, generation Z! And not just that. The experience of socialism, as it existed in the 20th century, also produced similar effects, when not worsened by the monstrous political-state apparatus and ideological propaganda.
The nonsense of requests and tasks also torments us in public life, notably in societies, such as Brazil, where the exasperating bureaucratic and notary tradition prevails. The simple existence of the mediation of notary offices, with their stamps and stamps, in addition to the fees charged,. And what about the infamous residence certificates required even to pay for insurance in private banks?
In this regard, better structured and pragmatic capitalist societies have their advantages. The standard of demands is less excruciating and the person’s word is more valuable than the suspicion that they are a potential criminal.
For bureaucratic obstacles, investment in technology has been promising. New developments like our admirable one are evidence of facilitation and saving time on a large scale. But there is still a lot of indigestible digital marathoning.
In traditional employment, the difficulties are not just practical, there is a structural issue. Hence the popular idea that becoming an entrepreneur solves the equation — which involves a lot of self-deception and future risk.
The old Marx believed, in his communist utopia, that technology would provide the desired free time for people finally emancipated from alienated work. He famously said that in a future day we could “hunt in the morning, fish and do literary criticism” — a symbolic image of freedom and control over life. Today we are still discussing the cruel 6 x 1 journey. Maybe for the grandchildren of generation Z?
