Prompt: working hours today are too long and people are not spending as much time as they should with their families and on leisure activities. What's your opinion on this?
Personally, I tend to think that people spend even more time at work because of several reasons. It is certainly true that competition is stronger than in the past and people have the necessity to be always abreast about news in their field. Some people choice voluntarily to do so, while others are, simply, workaholic or compelled to work harder by their senior staff like a strictly chief.
There are a number of problems that overworked involves. First of all, family and social life could be affected from this. After a long day of work, maybe individual just wants to have rest and relax and does not enjoy the company of their friends as well as family. People usually do not have time neither for themselves and often use their spare time to keep on working. In my opinion this attitude rise situations such as alienation and individualism in the modern society. Most of people, instead, could argue that to achieve success and the highest point of the power ladder you must spend all the time just working.
From my point of view, overworked has serious effects on children. Parents often spend time at work thinking that more they earn more they can give to their children. In addition, they think that their children will excuse them for this absence. Actually, I think that children need attentions and the chance to grow up with their parents. Often, it could be read on newspaper about children and teenagers, in general, who think that their parents do not love them and that their priority is the work and not their wellness or the relationship with them.
In conclusion, I think people are led to work so much time in order to achieve goals or because they are forced to do that. In addition, overworked is resulted in the overlooked of their family and friends, risking to feel alienate. Besides, it might crack the relationship with their kids, who could think that their beloved parents do not care about them. Personally, I tend to think that nowadays it is even more difficult to divide time between work and personal life especially for the strongest competition but that people should start to think about the worthy important things in their life.
