Ethics
Work Ethics in America on the Decline
Some say that work ethic in America is in decline, but is it really or are Americans simply getting too over weight and feel more lackadaisical when performing tasks? Is this then triggering a perception of laziness in some and a work effort riddled with excuses, delegation and blame gaming with most?
We have so many important jobs in our society that must be done, but if everyone is lazy, has a poor diet and refuses to put forth their best efforts, then all the work cannot get done on time and correct the first time. This in fat will lead to inefficiencies, increased costs and more work being created.
If more work is being created due to humans working less in their own civilizations then they will need to import others to help them do the work. But if they import a lesser class of citizen to do this work then they will cause animosity amongst the masses and further hardships down the road in the form of protests, demonstrations, boycotts and angry underpaid, under appreciated, second class citizen work force.
The poor work ethics and work force of America today is leading to an over all economic decline and tearing down at the fabric of society as a whole. We need a war on mediocrity, laziness and this new paradigm of ?blame game? style excuses being currently promoted by Donald Trump?s Reality TV Series; ?You?re Fired? and we may wish to consider the affect this change in attitude is having on our over all civilization. So, consider this in 2006.
