Work and Home..

If we look back twenty or thirty years ago, we see that the general lifestyle of people of that era was a lot different from what we have now. People were more family oriented and they used to work just to get food on the table. Workplace behavior and interactions were pretty formal and home/friends environment was very open, warm and friendly. Now all that is gone and something else has taken its place. Now a days technology has become so wide spread that human need to do physical labor has become nominal. People have to compete so much to stay hired and being able to earn for their families. So for this purpose people are working long hours at work and almost have neglected families. Formal workplace behavior has been replaced by the informal behavior because workplace has become the place where one spends most of his time. At one hand this is good for companies as they are paying people less for more work and they can keep them work longer hours, but at the same time next generation has been totally lost because of not having their parents with them when they are needed. Even the moms are working full time to get the best education and dresses for their children but they have abandoned them when it comes to their personal and moral training.

So even though the way people communicate in organizations has changed, people are becoming more friendly and interactive, I believe they should not leave their family behind and should give their kids an appropriate time that they need.
