Reverse Fathers Day, work

What if you start thinking the opposite about everything you believe at work?

Tradition and dogma imprint careers as an aspirational devotion ‘to put bread on the table and create quality of life’.

Many cultures, including the one i was born and raised in, promote putting work first, especially for men. And now in recent decades, women too.

What if you thought differently?

Take your ‘career’ for example…

No overtime.

No weekends.

No holidays.

No skipping vacations.

There are obvious tradeoffs between a padded bank account and a lean bank account.

One must decide.

We are always deciding.

Even when we don’t decide, we still have made a choice.
