The content critically examines the modern journalism's tendency to exploit emotional and intellectual vulnerabilities, particularly concerning the impact of overwork on mental health and the often-idealized portrayal of generational work attitudes, especially Generation Z.

We are going to refer here to an enormously important issue that has been talked about planetary mind,
we would say I will not say at the Planetary level because it cannot be said at the level of absurdly it is planetary
or globally it is about information that is distributed globally through
different media of communication and that frequently responds to the same reason, I am referring to the fact
that work causes mental illnesses that overwork causes
mental illnesses or Mental Health risks. Here, a country like Japan is taken as an example of this fact
and we are going to see how these issues can be discussed or no and how they can be applied to one or
another generation. What is certain is that today's journalism, 21st century journalism,
seeks to develop above all in areas in which human beings are very emotionally
vulnerable, either because they lack knowledge. that allow them to confront the
information that is promoted or disseminated in these contexts, which means that today journalism
cannot be denied. It seeks to expand in those regions where ignorance makes the
human being a particularly vulnerable, especially sensitive person. For what reason? Well, because
when we transmit knowledge or information to people especially
strengthened in the knowledge of certain facts, it is much more difficult to spread lies,
hoaxes or false news, however when we play with the emotions of human beings and especially
with their cognitive vulnerability, which is also closely related to
vulnerability. Emotionally, it is much easier to make them believe what in reality does not exist
and cannot occur. Here we are going to deal with two topics that have spread globally
in recent times and that have been reproduced through from different
media of national and foreign communication in English and Spanish in different languages Well,
because through simultaneous translators they can be disseminated very quickly and even
through Artificial Intelligence platforms they can be disseminated very quickly
but as I say, journalism is It develops not everything. We cannot generalize
this. It is absurd to generalize in this way but there is a very important part of
21st century journalism that extends through territories where the ignorance of human beings
towards this human being is much more emotionally vulnerable to everything. what is said in
such a way that If a series of messages are constantly transmitted over and over again that induce him to
place himself in a third semantic world in the face of a reality that he is unaware of, then naturally he will not
be able to overcome it, of course, here we see it in a piece of news that we read and that It will serve
as a guideline and as a reference that in Japan, Japan is taken as a reference and
a new record of Japanese with serious Mental Health disorders is noted due to work. 60 hours a week in
the company cause havoc, well naturally we must explain in what Mental Health consists eh,
naturally there are many types of personality disorders, many psychological problems that
can be related to work but that can also be related to the lack of
work, it depends on where we place the center of gravity, it depends on which wound we put our finger on,
but there is a noticeable Japan's Public Report shows very high numbers of people who have
reached serious extremes of mental problems due to spending 60 hours or more working a week. Yes,
undoubtedly. We should also see what the mental health problems are of those people
who do not have work. uh it's To say neither nor work should necessarily be understood as something that
causes Mental Health problems nor as something that solves them. That is to say, when you
have a job, you solve problems that you had when you didn't have a job but the
human being is faced with new problems to a new context and a new problem but look at how this
news presents the facts, it is noted that there are a series of experts who warn that we are
facing high levels of stress well the experts wrong Who are the experts of course the experts
They are a nebulous numinous entity by virtue of which, well, whoever transmits information to us
appeals to disclaim responsibility in the sense of I'm not saying it, I'm saying it, the experts are saying it,
but Who are those experts? Of course, it is the same procedure that Cervantes uses in Don Quixote
when says Don Quixote was written by Cidam Benengeli and I access that Arabic manuscript, I put it
in the hands of a Moorish translator and he provides it to me translated into Spanish and I make
the arrangements, that is, I don't I have nothing to do with the story I tell and in some way
the approach they explain here is the same, that is, I have nothing to do with the story
I tell, simply how it was told to me, I tell it to you and I have nothing to do with
this. because the experts tell it but of course the experts Who are they because the experts seem like
tellers of cafca stories or tellers of Borges stories In short, of course Japan is
a country that can be used as an example for everything and can be used as an example for nothing because when playing
with the component of exoticism and orientalism is too far away geographically from us,
it is also too far away in time because anything can be said about Japan,
any question that, while being attractive, can also be misleading. I am not saying that this
is false, I am saying that it can be delusional that it can be illusory that It may turn out
that it may be unrealistic, I insist that everything can be given as an example and it is not at all clear that
the 4-day work day has failed in Japan and there is a clear reason: the workers themselves
and their tendency, their habits to always work in person. present in a clear work context
this can be understood in many ways if I want to praise a
4-hour work day OR if I want to praise a 7-day work day it depends on 4 hours or
4 days of 7 hours or 7 days It depends on how you want to do it and how you want to formalize all
these types of contracts, but the fundamental thesis that is maintained here is that a new report, that is,
a new report that leaves behind other outdated ones, indicates that the number of people
who suffer from serious disorders Mental Health Due to overwork in Japan this
year it reaches a new record and of course this naturally greatly worries the country's authorities
and it is noted that the figures are serious according to a document. In the last year alone,
79 cases of suicide and attempted suicide have been recorded. of suicide by people exhausted by
their work stress as well as 216 cases of brain or heart conditions related to work,
of course, a lot of data is mixed here Because a suicide is not the same as a suicide attempt,
79 more cases have been registered than could have occurred without records as well as 216 cases
of brain and heart conditions health problems attributed to or caused by
brain or heart activities of course it is an issue that naturally worries the country this this
information It falls flat on its face eh it faces the myth of longevity it is often spoken
from Futurology from a more or less utopian or more or less dystopian science fiction of the
myth of the longevity of human beings who can survive more than 100 years but under what conditions
and at what price What kind of work can someone with this longevity do What kind of life
can lead someone with this longevity and yet at the same time in other contexts we are
informed that the millennial generation receives more and more information regarding their poor
state of health suffers from cancer prematurely so Of course what we are left with on the one hand
we have before us the myth of longevity and on the other hand we have before us the reality of
diseases that manifest prematurely and on the other hand we have before us the reality of
mental illnesses and personality disorders and psychological conflicts that
develop to the extent that we work harder, that is, The more you work You have worse health
. It is evident that this has happened all your life. But this does not mean that those who do not
work at all have better Mental Health than those who work. Because it depends on how you organize your leisure, your
emotional or sentimental life and also what you do at work. Of course it depends on many
Aspects really depend on many aspects. What do you spend your free time on? said that
famous song. Naturally, all of this has an immediate appointment with generation Z because
it is a way of winking at certain generational movements that are very active on
social networks and will automatically go. Let's see this type of news and this type of information.
Although generation Z in Japan does not live apart from the rest of the world, talking about generation
Z in Japan is talking about a graft invented by the Anglosphere, the United States, and placing it
in history in society in culture and In Japanese work,
generation Z in Japan is not the same as generation Z in the United States or generation Z in Spain.
You basically know if you have followed me in other interventions that I distinguish two groups,
two fundamental generational nuclei, the bomes and the
millenarians , other types of generational adjectives
such as generation Z , generation
another, in my case, those born in
1967 are a kind of late bomes, we barely have millennial traits, but we are not
, let's say, bomes in their purest form, no, we are not the full ones. The generation of bomes has
its center of reference and gravity around to 1950 and the millennial generation has its
center of gravity basically in the 1990s. The differences between the one and
the other are very notable, they are very powerful to such an extent we could say that the generation of The
millennialists are a generation that circulates along paths and itineraries that are completely designed
and highly developed and sophisticated by the Boomer generation. Generation Z is
a product of the boomers. Clearly, another thing is that they do not know it, whether they are aware of it
or not. They still have an alternative power to speak in their own sense of what
they have still experienced. It is a generation that is very ventriloquist by the Bomes. It is still a generation that is very
dominated by the Bomes. And these Bomes hide it enormously to turn the Z
into protagonists of a reality that the Z themselves have not yet managed to build but time
after time time after time it is noted that the Zetan generation Japan does not live apart from the rest
of the world and could and could turn upside down a work culture marked by
excessive hours of good weekly work This is a galloping idealism like
attributing to the millenarians the possibility of a Revolution designed by the bomes is
ultimately turning them into protagonists of a film designed, shot and produced by the bomes
in reality the total annual number of hours of work per employee reached 1,636 in Japan in 2003,
that is, an increase in hours compared to the previous year. The fact that this occurs in Japan does not mean
that it occurs in the rest of the world, it is simply an argument that is put on the table linking it
to the increase in mental illnesses of psychological problems the
average working hours increase for full-time employees and reach 1962 while for
part-time workers as 100 to 952 hours according to the report the document also warns that
the 8.4 of the employees work more than 60 hours a week in Japan. Look,
all of us who have had to face many problems in
our labor market have worked more than 60 hours a week. When I finish my bachelor's thesis, I start the courses. As a doctoral student,
I face my doctoral thesis, I face the first opposition report, then the second
opposition report, the entire neca accreditation process, etc., etc., and like me, many other
people worked more than 60 hours a week. You can believe this or not believe it, but that's the way it is, that is, the
work of a professor. I'm talking about the university, which is the institution that I know best. It is not
limited to simply giving six or 8 hours of classes a week, but rather what it has beforehand during and
then he's much older and I'm not talking No, I'm not going to talk about tutoring or other issues of
This guy was talking about the workload involved in participating in conferences, presence at
conferences in seminars, teaching courses at a given time, one receives courses from
a given time, teaching them about the oversaturation of the teaching load in preparing subjects that
They are naturally arranged in the opposition memory but they must be exercised and must be
renewed each year, that is to say that if one wants to work 60 hours a week and of course he
works them and obviously that enables the human being to develop a quantity of
activities that Otherwise, I would not be able to face the fact that this has consequences, that this
has side effects, because obviously, like elite athletes, physical effort
also has side effects on their health, but each person will have to see how they organize their
work and to what extent they can give account of an effort of a profitability in your work but
that is already a question of organization of personal resources in the I of the work activity on
this there are no rules or laws but look at another in another article in another work that also in
parallel to This has been spread not only in the national press but in foreign media from
where in some way the matrix of these issues emanates because the matrix of these issues is
a basically Anglosphere matrix all this type of information that is channeled
through the sphere of the press has a job they have a job they have a a
very important catechetical engine today Many of these stories many of these narratives are made through
journalism because journalism causes a much greater impact than literature can cause,
that is, in another era this information would be disseminated through literary genres of
literary channels today Today this is not the case. If we want information to reach
a very wide number of people, we cannot use the sonnet as a form of communication or
poetry because poetry has very few readers and also has very few intelligent readers
because most of poetry readers are very unintelligent, poetry requires an
intellection that most people do not achieve, that is why its intelligent readers are
very few and yet the press offers very easy and very simple messages to appeal to the greatest
possible number of people. readers who are not very intelligent the problem is not is that the
press has few intelligent readers that poetry has few intelligent readers The
problem is that there are very few intelligent people eh So in the event that that is considered a
problem but there is no harm in the least intelligent people find it easier
to spread any type of nonsense because the stupid consumer is not going to pay attention in
this regard, then of course the success of a lie depends on the degree of ignorance of the
recipient. This is something absolutely fundamental, the success of a lie is directly proportional
to the degree of ignorance of each of the recipients Why The reason is because
if a recipient has strong academic scientific knowledge or a certain
professional activity, the possibilities of dismantling This lie are total are
very high; however, if a recipient does not have knowledge and is very vulnerable from
an intellectual point of view, From an emotional point of view, the possibilities of dismantling that
lie decrease atrociously and therefore the damage that this lie can cause in its development
and circulation is much greater today, literature, as I say, has
enormous communication limitations because people do not read literature. people read other types of speeches
in others formats through social networks through short videos through the
usual channels of social networks that only allow the transfer of very simple messages very suitable for
the English language the English language is a very simple language very Telegram is a very unskillful language
for the literary exercise for literary composition, that is why in Anglo-Saxon culture,
literature has basically become a succession of self-help messages.
So, as I say, the success of The Lie is directly proportional to the ignorance of
its receivers and naturally that explains that a good part of current journalism and I will not say
all journalism because it is not true but a good part of current journalism seeks to develop
seeks to expand into those areas where the ignorance of the receiver is safe or is rampant
because the ignorance of the receiver It makes this recipient an extremely
emotionally and intellectually vulnerable person to anything that is put in front of him or anything that
is told to him and in this sense, as we are going to see here in these texts, the emotional vulnerability and
intellectual vulnerability of the greatest part of the information receivers is so large that
They can be made to believe anything, even though they have a certain technical
or professional preparation in the field of music medicine or architecture, they are
intellectually vulnerable in other areas and precisely in those areas where they are most vulnerable, even
intelligent people can bite the most toxic baits eh And assume them as if they were
absolutely indisputable truths. Notice that in another of this information it is warned that
generation Z is willing to leave their jobs if their bosses do not change and this represents an enormous
risk for companies, of course. This statement is based on an implicature that is undoubtedly
unreal. Generation Z, that is, basically, one of the denominations used to refer
to millenarians, does not have the power to leave their jobs for better ones.
Generation Z, the generation of millennialists, finds it very difficult. work
to find a stable job they find jobs that make job quality chronic that make
job insecurity chronic, then raising this type of statements means, above all, empowering the
recipient of this information by making him believe that he has power or that he has freedom or who
has a kind of moral superiority in the name of which he can say goodbye to a job without a
doubt 5 minutes before being fired to find another that will not be better but that perhaps
initially due to the novelty he may consider more stimulating until 10 minutes have passed. minutes Not
of course, this is an idealism that is incompatible with reality like all idealism, but it is an idealism
that tries to make millenarians believe that they live in a world that they can control or even
worse that they live in a world that is below their control. capabilities when in reality
rather the opposite happens, the world is always above our capabilities, that is, as
I would say, what I see in the world is that you were born not to amend it but to live it and suffer it. Therefore,
this thing about changing the world, be very careful with these ideas. to change the world Then we
notice that demanding working conditions or little technological innovation are reasons
that induce millenarians to abandon their jobs. In reality, millenarians
do not abandon their jobs so easily but endure it as best they can until the
They expel them, they throw them out or they simply terminate their contract, things are not exactly like that, these
statements that catechetical try to make the mineralist believe that he is above reality
and that he can overcome an adverse reality that is worth less than him because he is morally
superior . technologically more prepared and ultimately with a sympathy or empathy
superior to that of his bosses, it is enormously debatable, it is noted that times change
and the reasons change the arts, Cervantes would say it so many
times no and little Little by little we see how companies tend to adapt to workers
instead of workers adapting to companies. Well, this is actually neither true nor
false, sometimes yes and sometimes no because it is not the companies that adapt. to the
workers univocally unilaterally also the workers adapt to the
companies and not univocally not unilaterally it is that the workers and the companies adapt to
reality jointly or separately but the thing is that here there is a Common denominator much more
powerful than the company and that the workers who are reality have to adapt to reality
the company becoming compatible with it and the workers have to adapt to reality
with the company or against the company, which is what the courts of justice are sometimes there for
when there are conflicts, therefore we cannot present this conflict as simply something
that boils down to: the company adapts to the workers Of course the company adapts to
the workers in certain situations due to legal imperatives in many cases And of course
the workers adapt to the company from the moment they accept the contract that it
puts before them and clearly that workers and the company adapt to reality No matter how much they want to
hide it, there is nothing above reality, it is that no one can put themselves before
reality, no one is worth more than the reality in which we are all, therefore stating this means
ignoring many aspects about reality with the that we have to become compatible And this is
precisely what the studies done on the population of generation Z show because
what these studies show is an idealism and it is a sophistry, it is the art of sophistry and it is said that
the millenarians fight against the traditional work environments and how they fight dancing
reggaeton How they fight or I mean this is very curious how they fight suffering by holding
jobs if they don't feel comfortable well This is galloping idealism it could even
be comical that is equivalent to stating that someone who takes a trip in plane because he does not
feel comfortable in his seat, he leaves the plane in mid-flight, it is the same, no one leaves a
job if they do not have a way of survival, be it parasitism or another job in such a
way that attributing this type of millennialism to the millenarians behavior is not so much a reality as
an invitation to consider that they can empower themselves that they can idealize in the face of a reality that
overwhelms them and in the face of which they can only pretend to play a role that in reality does not represent the role
of someone who can do more than the labor market. that faces the role of someone who has the power
to abandon a job and choose another, as if jobs were offered in this way, this
is completely impossible. I insist that this is equivalent to saying that since I am uncomfortable in
the airplane seat that has been assigned to me in full flight at 9000 m altitude I decide to leave the
plane of course this is suicide you have no problem leaving your jobs if
you don't feel comfortable but what concept of comfort do you have I'm not referring to the
millenarians I'm referring to those who spread this type of information what concept of comfort
you want the millenarians to have in order to convince them that they have to
live all their lives in extremely precarious working conditions that will
chronicle an attitude by virtue of which I leave 5 minutes before they fire me. But to where
is You are going, a candid soul. Where are you going in full flight? It is a total idealism. It is an idealism
that is incompatible with labor rationalism with human rationalism. Then they notice the fact
that a worker of this generation is not afraid to leave a position, it is of great importance. problem
for the company that constantly registers variations in its workforce the company
constantly registers variations in its workforce because it is programmed to
constantly register variations in its workforce and precisely through information of this nature
it gradually mentalizes the employees. millenarians so that they are not afraid to lose their job because
in this way there will be less social upheaval and there will be fewer social problems If people are
afraid of losing their job they will behave differently they will demand more rights they will organize
their protests better at this time if there is something that has differentiated them at work to the generation of
the millenarians of the bomes was that the bomes were much better organized among themselves to
demand labor rights than the millenarians who have practically no type of
organization because millenarian individualism is tremendous and rampant precisely precisely
encouraged galvanized exacerbated by this type of information that makes them believe that
They individually are above everyone and this is the way to collectively weaken
an entire generation, especially incapable of collectively demanding labor rights
that the previous generation, the bomes, did achieve and knew how to manage very carefully, very
effectively, very subtly, it is not that this generation is not afraid to leave their
job. It is because they have no alternative. Because from the moment they fire you, it doesn't matter
if you are afraid, or if you don't, it means that they have fired you somewhere else. No, there is no way to talk about lacking
fear or lack of have courage but simply of unconsciousness, not even of recklessness, but of
unconsciousness or Better yet, of impotence because In short, if you are fired from a job
you can only find another one equal or worse or in any case Living off parasitism in some way but there is no room
to talk about bravery here. It should be said that they are not afraid, it is not that it is simply that they do not
have power, you can have a lot of intelligence AND have very little power and you can have a lot of power
and have very little intelligence obviously. And we find examples of this type
constantly. says says that one One of the great challenges that companies have now is to create
lasting ties with their workers to consolidate them in the company. Companies
do not give a damn about their workers. The larger the company is, the less personal relationship it has with
the worker. The workers are a number in the balance of the companies to the company the
worker does not care at all from an attributive point of view and from a
distributive point of view he will always find someone if he wants with those capabilities and distributive quantum
he has plenty of human resources at this time he has plenty because the The possibilities of
replacing human resources with technological procedures are increasing, therefore
this image that is given of the millennialists and the generation Z totally empowered, totally
moral supremacist and totally brave, lacking fear, does not correspond at all. With
reality, it is a catethical advertising image that I insist is disseminated at a global level. Planetario
aims to dispose an entire generation of human beings deeply weakened by a
labor market to fragility and the chronification of job insecurity, this has no way out, there is no
alternative, of course. It is also said why the Z generation has this problem and then
it is warned of the technological expectations that the millennialists have very high and that are
above those offered by companies. Of course, this is as if we were saying that someone is born
knowing clearly that has said that the millenarians are digital natives And in this way it seems
that an innate digital superiority is attributed to them. On the opposite pole there are those who
discredit them for this reason and it is said of them that the millenarians are not digital natives
but digital cretins well This M is perhaps very unfortunate because neither one nor the other, neither
black nor white, nor being a digital native makes you born knowing computer science. Unless
you have studied it as a young adult, nor is it about digital cretins. It has been said many
times that if someone knows how to handle digital technology perfectly, it is not because they are a
genius, but because the geniuses are the Google engineers. Of course, he says, it's not that I,
it's that my son manages the Internet perfectly or social networks but it is not because it is
a Genius, your son .
Geniuses are Google engineers. This has been said many times. I haven't said it
. I have said it repeated countless times and it is the pure truth. digital
era preexisting your biology because it is incurring a new idealism, you know technologically the
computing that has been studied and you do not know what has been studied even if you were born
in the era or times of digital. So it is a new way to
empower millennialists to say that This generation Z was practically born with a mobile phone in their
hands and This makes them see technology as synonymous with efficiency and that companies are
technologically underdeveloped next to the amount of computer
and technological skills that these millennialists have, of course, and this causes them frustration and makes
them leave the company. This is another complete idealism, it is the same as assuming that someone who,
as a passenger, pilots, eh. As a passenger, he travels. in a plane he is not satisfied with the way
the pilot has of driving the plane and he gives up continuing Traveling on that plane and abandons it in mid-flight
of course they are one of a kind It is completely ridiculous these types of things are incompatible with
human rationalism, then of course. It seems that the millennialist knows more than his own company.
This is not the case and for that reason the current world justifies the millennialist to abandon, really abandon,
the company in which he works. Because he is worth more than his company itself, of course, this
is due to egomania, egocentrism and narcissism that are truly rampant and totally
unjustifiable. No, this is not supported in any way.
in which the ignorance of the recipient makes
the lies that are spread in these contexts credible and in these terms, the
success of the lie depends on the ignorance of each recipient and the emotional
and intellectual vulnerability of each recipient. This cannot be It may be that information is more successful in
dissemination when it is developed through paths in which the recipients are more ignorant
and for this reason philosophers, ideologues and religious people, that is, ideologies,
philosophies and religions, have always searched as a public. preferably a public
ignorant philosophers religious people and ideologues love to talk to
ignorant people no By chance Jesus Christ chose 12 ignorant fishermen who could neither read
nor write because basically the success of a lie is directly proportional to the degree
of ignorance of the people who receive that lie that they have no capacity to
present allegations, appeal or obstacles to the dissemination of that lie, then of course when
we put this in relation to an educational system that the only thing it does is enhance the emotions
of human beings, develop the ignorance of the human beings instead of scientific knowledge
because naturally we live in a world not of social networks but of highways
that lead to a third semantic world and that all also lead to the third
semantic world, that is, if Plato wrote today that spooky book titled the
Republic naturally to the cave the I would call it the Anglosphere because
all these highways lead us to a semantic third world. Of course, if you
notice, here we talk about disproportionate working conditions, but it is that the working conditions
are always disproportionate as the price of the products is always expensive, that is,
the working conditions are always disproportionate because there is always someone who works more than you
There is always someone who knows how to work more than you there is always someone who can work more than you
and naturally that someone is already spoiling your curricular career your resume bite
etcetera etcetera There is always someone who works more than you there is always a colleague who works more
than you there is always a colleague who is worth more than you and that colleague is the that you hump, let's say the
work context, the work environment and above all, the one who can steal your chair at a given moment, the fact that
he works more than you does not mean that he works better or that he does better things, it means that
he knows how to work the work field better than he can. that you know how to work even to be an
impostor you have to work many hours that is to say the impostor is not born the impostor is made
you also have to know how to do it there are no digital natives there are people who study computer science of course eh the
working conditions are always excessive and warns here of a new deception, a new self-deception,
generation Z is not like our parents' generation that prioritized work above
everything, but they cannot prioritize work above everything because work is not
Something that is offered to them above all is that for millennialists, work is not the solution
because the difficulties in accessing a job are so great that they cannot bet
exclusively on work because they will never have it. In stable conditions,
what they are going to have are conditions of labor instability so fraught and so
perpetual that evidently they have to naturally renounce considering that work is a
solution, which is one of the greatest and saddest condemnations that a person can face.
generation that is forever deprived of a stable job stable work was what
the bomes had unstable work is what the millenarians have all this type of information is
oriented and intended to familiarize the millenarians with
totally precarious and totally unstable working conditions because there is no other alternative because the system
has configured it and because in this way the millenarians will be much more docile when it comes to
communing with these millstones obviously. So it is a way to reassure
Sarla society to avoid social conflicts Notice that today there are practically no
social conflicts at any time of the year there are always lights even if it is not Christmas of course
it did not matter to the boomers that they had to work long hours if it was the order that was received no but
the Boomers converted the work into money and they converted money into power and the millenarians
have so few job possibilities that converting that work into money is something ridiculous
and making that position a position of power is totally impossible is that the limitations
that the millenarians face they are tremendous they are absolutely tremendous so that
the image that is given of them is that of the Zorro who despises the grapes saying that they are green
Simply because he cannot reach them this this takes us back to the esopic fables completely
Eh then we say hey a young man leaves his job on the first day precisely because they wanted
me to work 12 hours a day and what was worked before and what is worked now today, those who want to work
work 12 hours a day or more something that they don't like This generation that is not so alienated with the
loyalty or rigidity of the company But it cannot be, it cannot be because
that is not allowed either, we talk about poor communication with bosses, of course, and we have good communication with
colleagues because in a company the relationship is not only vertical, it is also horizontal. With
how many colleagues do we have? bad communication How many bosses have bad communication with each other
How many bosses have good communication with their subordinates maliciously
and how many subordinates have optimal communication with their bosses also perversely
clear It is that presenting the work activity as a bad communication with The bosses in a
Manichean sense in that saying bosses are the bad ones and the employees are the good ones means
ignoring that among employees there is a lot of malice and a lot of perversion in work activities.
How many tricks has a colleague played on you? Well, sometimes a colleague cheats on you. more traps than a boss,
of course, this depends on many aspects, we also talk about a disconnection with the company environment
and here we will delve into the figures and metaphors invented and elaborated by the
Anglosphere, look what It was said a few days ago that some young people who are beginning their
careers realize the importance of corporate social responsibility.
What is corporate social responsibility? Corporate social responsibility is simply
a good work environment, but these people seem to have not read Juan de Mairena by Antonio
Machado when he says the customary events that happen on the street And that's what happens
on the street because talking about corporate social responsibility is a work environment is collaboration
between the members of a work team between a group of work is not necessary invoke these
terms then of course it is said that there is not a good work environment And of course mm being in
a company that is insensitive to the environment is a reason for young people not to want to be in it
but what do you think is a company, a club of friends, a company is something that
produces money in exchange for demanding a series of responsibilities and a series of compatibilities
with reality with your bosses and your colleagues that if you are not able to achieve You will not be able to continue
practicing and therefore you will have to leave but neither the bosses are comfortable nor the company
is sometimes comfortable with the current legality with the state that oppresses it with the prevailing taxation
with a labor market that resists it with a client who it is also resist because here we don't
talk about clients but of course when we talk about poor communication with the bosses, you have
good communication with the client because what you say to the client to the face is one thing and
what you think about the client inside is another very different And you have to eat that to see who
responds to a client in terms that may be debatable for the
labor code in a certain company, then of course a company that is insensitive to the environment But where
do you think they work or in a place where people people go smelling each other to see what
sensitivities they have towards each other because I don't even want to think about where we can end up smelling each other
in the workplace anyway and then you notice that here in Cali and in Arena the companies
are not satisfied with their employees either. Well, neither the employees with the companies nor the clients
with the workers nor the pedestrians with the vehicles nor the cars with Los Caminantes
etc. etc. This is part of a much broader problem, so
again everything is focused on the generation Z and it is said that companies are upset with the
millenarians because they do not meet performance expectations And then here again it seems
that the millenarians are useless who are lazy who do not want to work That they are
incompetent etcetera etcetera And then it is said that the day is preferred 4-day work day of course
In this way we already introduce a very important fact, the 4-
day work day is sold as something that benefits the worker, well a 4-day work day means many
things including paying less money because you work less days but also hire more
people because with fewer workers earning less, you can hire some more to earn everyone
the same less. It is a way to restructure the labor resources of a company and adjust them
to certain conditions. But there is also a very important fact, a fact. very important
And it is that service contracts are increasingly proliferating more than contracts for years or
months, that is, I pay you a contract for a service and I do not pay you for a one-
year contract of 2 years, I contract you for you a job but I didn't hire you A payroll in such
a way that it is as if the universities, instead of paying for an employment contract
that requires teaching classes during a course, two courses or 30 years, will pay you to give
a lecture, that is, instead of paying you for classes for an entire year of everything. a semester
I pay you for a conference or two conferences or three conferences, of course, services are contracted,
not long work periods, this means leading to an
absolutely unusual, absolutely rampant precariousness of the labor market that takes us back to the states
of the 19th century or before the century. XIX then how we have advanced How we have evolved
and considering that generation Z is completely disconnected from the world of work and that companies
are forced to constantly rotate workforces means ignoring many things
and means disguising the reality of what is obviously not generation Z or the millenarians
are nothing more than a generational group terribly designed by the bomes, the power of the bomes
is still very powerful today and it is very possible that the generation of the millenarians
is still unaware today that it lacks power and that it lacks resources Because Those powers and
those resources are still in the hands of the Boomer generation who have designed the
path, the itinerary and the labor market within which millenarians still find and
What is more serious, all these speeches that are put in the mouths of the millenarians are the
result of a ventriloquist's activity that ultimately makes the millenarians speak without
their knowledge through the mouths of the bomes, who are the ones who I insist have designed this entire third semantic world
in which this information occurs that, intended to promote idealism and false
expectations in a world that is especially vulnerable from an emotional-intellectual point of view on the
part of the recipients who receive this information, means that it can be imposed with
much greater urgency and with much greater ease. In short, everything indicates that from the point of
view of the labor market we live more and more every day in a semantic third world where the information
that reaches us is far from being exact. What they do is acclimatize us intellectually and emotionally to
the millennialists to have to assume working conditions that in no way
would any Boomer have ever accepted the reason why We will continue to explain it in successive videos
