Working-Professional: A long-standing plan to meet old friends was finalized last weekend. Taking time out from the hustle and bustle of life, all agreed except one friend. When asked the reason, he said that the work pressure is so much that it is becoming difficult to manage time and he also has night shifts. Both the reasons were valid, but we tried almost every trick to include him in the plan, but it did not work out.
When we invited another friend to the society for Teej celebration, he also refused without wasting a minute telling us about the workload in the office.
These reasons for the two friends not being together are not excuses, but the truth. These days most of the employed people are struggling with this. This way of working can give them progress in their professional life, but in their personal life such people become victims of loneliness.
Recently a Microsoft engineer was seen driving an auto on the streets of Bangalore. When the 35-year-old engineer was asked the reason for this, he said that he does this to overcome his loneliness.
- The way of working is making people lonely
- Incomplete goals and untimely changes have wreaked havoc on the personal lives of working professionals. To complete the target, one has to stay in the office for many hours before the shift and if there is a night shift somewhere, then the day time is spent sleeping. Neither are they able to eat or drink on time nor do any kind of activity and social life is almost coming to an end. Due to which loneliness of people is increasing.
