Topic :People today spend too much time on personal enjoyment rather than things that they should do | |
|
In this era of rapid social and technological changes that have led to greater complexity, some people believe that today's people spend excessive time on recreational things whereas they ignore their duties. However, I firmly believe that this statement is flaw. The rationale behind this is the advanced technology enables people to have enough time to enjoy life. On top of that, people's work efficiency has increased dramatically compared to the past.
To begin with, people in the modern world now have moe time to enjoy their lives since advanced technology promote their lives in many aspects. In other words, it now requires less effort from people to complete their taks. For instance, in past, hand-writing was the only way to process written documents and this task took up a considerable amount of time. However, after the invention of typing machine, it became much easier for workers to deal with their written documents such as, the time required to finish the job decreased significantly. Likewise other many demanding jobs became much more convenient with the advent of modern techology. In this respect, people do not ignore their duties, but only they are now given more time to pursue their favortie activies.
In addition, although workers spend less time in their work, their work efficieny has increased dramatically. This is because specific work system invented that made individual employee only responsible for its own job and this created much more productive working environment. To illustrate, Henry Ford devised line-working system and applied it to his own car company. Unlike their previous employees who were expected to know all information about automobile, Ford employed new workers and trained them only each sector of job. This paved the way for mass production of automobile since not only it required less time but also it reduced employees' salary. If it were not for Ford's innovative working policy, people still would have paid a great deal of money and waited for long time to purchase a car.
In conclusion, I storngly believe that today's people do not spend excessive time on their personal activities. It may appear to be like that, but when we consider factors such as, the advent of technology made many demanding jobs much easier so that people now can have more free timem, and also their work efficieny has increased although they are criticised for having much free time, it becomes obvious that people do not neglect their duties. Consequently, I believe that the best way to counter this statement is by following the saying, "a person who work the best knows how to enjoy his life". | |
