WHAT IF WE STOPPED... WORKING?

THINK TWICE

By Joseph kudakwashe svova Published 2 years ago 4 min read
What If We Stop All The Operations Today, Are you Prepared For The Outcome?

what if we stopped working no really

what if tomorrow we just didn't clock in

what if every single one of us just

stopped right now and saw the state of total chaos tonight. ooh yes literally

the real answer is things would go downhill real fast

it would be like so bad empty shelves

empty cities empty promises even we

wouldn't make it very long without

anybody doing anything we call work

but that doesn't answer the question what if we stopped working? a useless question because in an

otherwise simple answer it would suck

there's something a little more

interesting hiding in the background

just out of focus what is that enhance

if the answer to what if we stopped

working ? is we can't that begs the

question how close can we get and that

question has some pretty interesting answers let's back up

if you go to parties you've probably

been asked the question what do you do

if you answer "I'm a software developer" you don't know who would ever give you the chance to give that answer

no friends like you when you at a broke state

as a man its difficult manage and fuel relationships when not financially stable.

which brings us to a questions, can we really stop working,

bottom of the barrel trapped in a pit of loneliness

anyway the fact that what do you do is

the default punch bowl question

demonstrates at least one thing about

our current society work is one of if

not the biggest part of our lives but it

doesn't have to be already multiple countries are trying

out things like a four-day work week how

does this work in countries like new

Zealand, Spain and Iceland. they ran

experiments with shortening the work

week to just four days and then they

wrote down the results and now we're looking at them.

we hate bad "stuff" sorry ignore him i don't know how he got in the picture

to have some of that with a side of

political theory to appease the nerds

such a big deal for some people and why

it could just not be because it could be

we don't need to work so hard you'd

think that that fact would make for easy

political points just right there for

the taking who wouldn't vote for the

candidate or the party that's going to

make their lives more pleasant less

constrained more free of work

we have to get back to work our people

want to work they want to go back

they have to go back a job's about a lot

more than a paycheck it's about your

dignity it's about respect it's about

your place in the community

neither party is trying to meaningfully

reduce our working hours despite enough

people hating their jobs so much that

Forbes of all magazines can run a

listicle with 15 ways to quote rise

above resenting your job with such

helpful tips as get over it

that's not to say that the sentiment

doesn't exist at all in our governments.

work is actually a word work is the

effect we have on the world it's using

your physical or mental effort to

achieve something without any work at

all by anyone we'd all die without

nurses electricians teachers people

getting out of bed to make breakfast

society would crumble pretty quickly we

would be completely idle and not for

long some amount of work always needs to

be done nowadays some work gets paid

with money and some work gets paid with

no money or barely any money and also

disdain being against work or anti-work

if you spend any time on the worst place

on the internet isn't ignoring that fact

it's recognizing that some work always

needs to be done but that the condition

that shape that work should be different

Imagine the effects on general GDP if we stop working today

imagine we stop all the operations. Imagine we stop story creating

did i just say that?, yes i did.. imagine the effect on you as our audience

you need story telling, you need updates, you need relaxation.

honestly i cant stop working, i cant stop creating stories on vocal media.

lets keep pushing ladies and gents..

every single day is a new opportunity to make a difference in life!

i would really appreciate if you can shed some lights on my creation and be able to chip in even even with little because all my life i was taught to appreciate even the little i get. Nothing is of no value

have a blessed 2024, lets keep it burning...THANK YOU

success
