RE: Tired of working? Get a robot "YOU" and become redundant.
yes :) housework isn't the only thing that robots can do to simplify our life. But still, we should't forget the disadvantages of implantation of robots in our life)
I'd like a robot to go to work for me. :)
And what will you do?) Come on, then our life won't be so saturated)
I’ll go camping, fishing, hunting, four wheel driving, spend time with my family, travel and learn more about the world. I’ll read, start a new hobby, sit and contemplate, learn a new recipe, help others build their own robot to replace them at work.
Work is the worst invention ever.
But you don't work 24/7, after your work you have time for all those things that you've just listed. I love my job, it is like a hobby for me, I think it is just a question of preferences. You can always find time for something that you really want to do :)
Hi Diana,
You are quite right, I don't and nor would I want to. You see, I believe work should support life, not be life. Sure, I like my job as well, am good at it, feel rewarded when I do well and have success, but it doesn't, and will never, define who I am. If your work is like your hobby that's great. My hobbies are certainly not my work.
I spend 9 hours a day working and a further 1 hour getting too and from my work. That's 10 hours. Add to that the 7 hours I sleep per day and you have 17 hours of a 24 hour day. That leaves 7 hours a day for whatever else I do. exercise, hobbies, shopping, cleaning, socializing and so on. Not very long is it?
That's actually only 106 days out of 365 in a year that I am actually doing what I want to do.; The stuff that does define me.
I started work at 15 and I'm 47 now. I have learned that living life is not about working, it's about experiencing. I get the impression you are young. Maybe after 32 years of working you may think a little differently than you do now. You're not wrong and I'm not right...There's no wrong or right to this. There is simply what you want as an individual. Everyone has different understandings of things and places importance in different areas than the next person.
Governments need many people like you to pay their taxes so politicians can make more income and have more perks. It's the way of it.
For me? well, I can think of thousands of things I'd rather do than choose to go to work. That doesn't mean I am unproductive at work or that I hate it. It just means I'd rather design and create my ideal life than live it by default.
I really appreciate your comments @diana-stepasiuk and all the best with work.
I see that you really like discussions. You are right that I am young) Everyone has a point, so thanks for your deployed answer. I really appreciate your opinion :)
