Fewer of us work
in large offices and factories, fewer commute to work into that community and that
cameraderie of work. Instead we may be more often working in our own homes, often doing
contract work for several different employers. Service work dominates over manufacturing
which can be one or two men supervising banks of machines. The scarcity for people
skills-caring, nursing, counselling,policing……. is bemoaned; but this work is less
attractive because of an image and often a reality of poor pay,unsociable conditions and
low status. |
