Eden: Work is an unpleasant punishment. Aristotle: Finding fulfillment and doing spectacular things is impossible when you're poor and have to earn money. Early Christianity: Work is terrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrible but we gotta do it anyways cuz God said so. Renaissance: Money, ambition, joy and creative genius are best together. Martin Luther: We shall use our talents for good. Even small ones are important and please God. Ordinary jobs are sometimes even better. Enlightenment: The Encyclopedie, explaining things about different everyday jobs. Marks: Boring, uneducational work that doesn't develop one's talents and personality is the worst capitalism does. Veblen: rich people are lazy assholes. 1945: MBTI YAAAY! Also people make a cult out of work, which is not good. Cults aren't good as a whole. But it's great that they choose people by their talent and personality. Now: We have very high expectations and are often unfulfilled by our work.

[@georgiana1754]

This concept of meaningful work is beautiful but very hard to apply in real life for most of the world. While I currently have such a job, I achieved that by lowering expectations on other aspects of my career, like money and prestige. For me it's a very good trade off that I found after years of struggle to identify successful combination. I also remember how ok I was with being a waitress in my teenage years before having ideals of fulfilling work. What I find worrying is that there are a lot of people with a lot harsher jobs which they chose on the basis of making a living and how deeply disturbing it is/will be for them to consider their situation from this "meaning work" point of view. In truth, this criterion is still hard to apply as a general rule. However, we are the closest we've ever been to that possibility due to the prospect of robots taking over the repetitive and mechanical jobs and thus leaving mostly fulfilling options. I'm very keen to see what new kinds of occupations people will take on when the current industrial revolution style 8h work day will (finally) become obsolete.

[@imbispo6037]

Another really important point is the spectation and the desire it leaves on us, seen such a possibility, even if hard, possible, have a surprising power of leaving us feeling like we are in a bad situation and wasting our lives; All as a perment background feeling. Even if our jobs are really ok, or even good, the desire this idea can generate, causes it to be experience as much worse than it would be, if we had no desire of achieving a improbable meaningfull job. This for me, went unoticed as one of the biggest causes of my disstisfaction with my current job. when i was able to rid of this desire, i found i could be very happy staying at this job for the rest of my life. Im not saying we all shouldnt persue such jobs, it can be great depending on who you are and your situation, but we should be very aware that our main reason for wanting to do so, isnt our situation, but the sofering this idea can generate

[@jorgeastiazaran]

Great video! My thoughts: work has become the standard way to become useful to our community. Most of us would find great satisfaction in being useful. The problem is that most of us think of work as a personal struggle to survive, we fail to see how our work benefits others. A probable reason for this might be the "division of labour" and globalization. If I'm in charge of pouring plastic pellets into a machine that makes plastic buttons which in turn will be sold to another company which will assemble it into an electronic component which then will be shipped to a car assembly plant, then, it will be very hard for me to "feel" the value of my effort, and my job might feel useless.

"The cult of working hard and be very very busy all the time. Soon only the unemployed are idle, everyone else is working away furiously. The richer you are the more you keep working, to show that you are good and serious. Being idle is the new taboo."

[@natalie20230]

One of the biggest things I think makes work so terrible now vs even just a couple hundred years ago (or in some places now) is the disconnection between work and reward. We disassociate our 9-5 from our biweekly paycheck, and the work we do doesn’t directly affect us or anyone we know (particularly when working for large corporations). If you lived in 1750, had a farm, had a small village and community who all know, care for, and love each other, and the food and supplies you were making were directly fueling your community and your family, you would likely feel much more fulfillment watching your hard work mean something because it’s on a smaller scale.

[@AnotherGradus]

Great video-- with that last thread about technology liberating/complicating contemporary work, I couldn't help but think of the rise of automation, especially *"Humans Need Not Apply"* by CGP Grey. Creative (Renaissance-like) freelance work will likely be the only human jobs in 100 years.

Paul Keefer Haha! I took too long writing my comment. We are like minded.

[@BineroBE]

Paul Keefer Not as long as governments and unions keep doing everything to stop automation. Automation is already cheaper but often robots are made artificially expensive or workers artificially cheap, or companies are simply forced to keep their workers that automation can't expand as fast as it could otherwise. Instead of stopping progress we need to change the economic model to allow for this automation.

[@jimadams3623]

Jeroen Bollen If we allowed automation to grow, majority wouldn't work, people would live a leisurely, inactive life. The machine owners would send everyone a portion of his profits to pay for their lifestyle. Work is in our DNA so i don't think we'll adapt.

Christian tradition does not say the punishment was to work, but to work WITH EFFORT. In fact the Bible says "God took the man and settled him in the garden of Eden to cultivate and take care of it".

[@bianconerocatracho909]

Although certain "Christians" have marked work as a burden, the Bible does not support this reasoning. Before Adam and Eve sinned, they had been assigned duties, as can be seen in Genesis 1:28. However, overly hard work was a curse that was imposed on Adam. This curse was removed from humankind after the Flood, as can be seen in Genesis 5:28,29.

Great video! I know it has been done on other KZbin channels, but I would love to see a follow up of this. It would be taking off from the Macintosh portion of this video and would examine the future of work - in relation to the impending automation boom. The video could include the effects of events that are happening right now, such as vehicle automation, would bring up the threat it presents to capitalism in general (how will we make money? UBI? Negative taxable income?) and bring up several options of people returning to more creative and meaningful work. Additionally, you could compare how people reacted to the industrial/analog automation revolution vs how we will handle the upcoming digital/electronic automation revolution. I have a ton of ideas, but even more blanks to fill in. I realize it's not exactly your cup of tea as you mainly examine historical figures in your videos and this is more of a "future unknown". Some figures still apply Herbert Marshall McLuhan, Edmund Gerald "Jerry" Brown Jr. has good quotes, Karl Marx again and some futurologists. I don't know, what do you think? FUTURE - Work

Correction for the Adam bit: First, it was some kind of fruit, not specifically an apple. Second, Adam from his creation was told he was to work (Gen 2:15) but his curse was that it would no longer always be fruitful. So the Judeo-Christian idea is that work always existed, even in paradise

[@MustafaKulle]

One cause of the unemployment/misemployment problem is britain's abysmal education system. All it does is make children memorise information based on a syllabus, and their "intelligence" is based on how much they can remember. Of course this doesn't work. An A student may not be as intelligent as a D student, because their brains work differently, but the exam boards don't work in way that recognises this. If getting a job only awards people who are able to score As and Bs in their exams, then what are the people who score lower supposed to do? Rot in unemployment, getting by on welfare? This puts a burden on taxpayers. It was reported recently that 75% of school leavers do not have the skills necessary to get a job. Once again, the schools have failed the very basic task to prepare young people for the world of work, let alone life. These same students have been told for years to go to university because they'll get a good job afterwards, but employers demand 3-5 years "work experience". Degrees are now worthless, and all that time and money is wasted for nothing. This is why there are so many out-of-work graduates. The solution is simple: At a young age, children need to be enabled to develop their personalities so that they can be taught according to that test mentioned in this video. There are plenty of ways to educate people with different personalities. That's why so many people are in the wrong jobs and dissasitsfied. I'm so glad it was mentioned in this video. It's not too late to get this implented into schools and job centres, so that it will get people into the right jobs, and content workers. A happy workforce is a productive workforce.

[@TypicallyHuman]

I don't know it's relevant or not but this video just clarifies to me that being lazy and being idle are two completely different things. A lazy person is the one not willing to work or not putting enough effort to his/her work, but an idle is someone who is temporarily unemployed.

[@IliyanBobev]

Certain tasks demand stoic attitude and perseverance in the face of monotonous repetition before you can reap the pride of your labor. Our attitude to work is not constant - learning to play an instrument may feel tedious in the beginning, but then joyful and expressive once you attain some mastery.

I think it's going be very interesting to see how the concept of work develops itself in the near future. The "uncreative" works that can soon be replace by technology, for example farming, driving, manufacturing or even service will surely leaves a lot of people workless for economical reasons. This automation of labour may be beneficial in a sense that it liberates people from doing works that they may find meaningless, but it may easily lead to a existential dilemma - what's next. The concept of work would totally change. If people do not need to do repetitive manual task to survive what should they do instead; create? For example I've read an article on the likely replacement of truck drivers in the United States by automated vehicles. Truck drivers are, in certain states the main mode of employment and they fuels other businesses such as restaurants and motels on their way. Replacing them with computed trucks, replacing call centres with automated replies seem to be the trend - and the theme here is economic. The truck drivers would be left jobless, should they, like many in their position struggle to find a job when there is none for them? Or should or societal structure permit an alternative existence?
