Some say that if anyone would be given a choice between ‘not working’ and ‘working most of the time’, they would choose not to work. Do you agree or disagree?
With many developed countries offering social security to
their citizens, many people have started thinking that employment has become a
non essential factor as far as means earning a living is concerned. This has
completely eroded their inclination to work and they want to spend their lives
that are free of any kind of work routines.
Inhabitants of many prosperous countries opt for living a
lifestyle that is free of any monotonous routine and compulsions of employment
and work. As per them involving themselves in a life that is full of
complexities and anxiety is bad idea and they are ready to support their
routines with whatever minimal financial support they are provided by their
governments.
Besides limiting their needs for sake of free life, many
individuals do not have an inclination for taking up a job as they feel that
they are not capable enough to handle the burdens and demands of a job. They
feel that if they do not take up that position someone with a direr need for a
job will be able top get that position.
On the other hand, for some people work is vital component
of their daily routines. Monetary advantages are the one of factors that
influences their craving for work but not necessarily primary aspects. These
individuals pursue professional satisfaction and wish to live with a sense of
achievement and accomplishment for example people involved in technical and
research work always choose spending more and more time at their work so that
they can achieve desired results with their intense efforts.
In my opinion, although the choice of remaining workless is an individual prerogative, this tendency is more noticeable, among a minority, in prosperous countries,
while in developing nations work and jobs are critical for survival of people. Thus, this opinon cannot be upheld at all.
