Antiwork

We’ve been brainwashed to think that work is the most important thing in life.

You see it in so many ways. When meeting someone new, we usually ask them what they do for work way before we ask them what they do for pleasure. People will give someone automatic respect and trust without knowing the person based on a job title. It has almost become embarrassing for women to say that they are a stay at home mother. As though they aren’t valuable or respectable unless they have a career. I think the majority of us are still okay with working. We just don’t want work to be the top priority in our lives and we want recognition for the sacrifices we are making(not spending time with our families, friends and personal passions).
