Trabalhar é tão bom!

Às vezes vejo pessoas enxendo o trabalho de elogios, falando q ele enobrece o cidadão, e patati patatá.

Veja então uma estatística q topei ontem, mostrando um compilado de pesquisas de como os estadunidenses vêem o trabalho deles (http://www NULL.fourhourworkweek NULL.com/blog/the-truth/):

In 2005, a psychiatrist at King’s College in London administered IQ tests to three groups: the first did nothing but perform the IQ test, the second was distracted by e-mail and ringing phones, and the third was stoned on marijuana (maconha). Not surprisingly, the first group did better than the other two by an average of 10 points. The e-mailers, on the other hands, did worse than the stoners by an average of 6 points.

E olha q é os trabalhadores do USA hein, onde as oportunidades são ilimitadas, os direitos são gigantescos, os salários astronômicos, e as empresas ficam desesperadas pra ir pra países subdesenvolvidos onde os salários, a condição de trabalho e os direitos trabalhistas são menores.

What Happens When Employees Work Whenever and Wherever They Want?

 

By the end of 2007, all 4.000 staffers at Best Buy headquarters will be on ROWE (Results-Only Work Environment), which permits them to work whenever and wherever they want.
