how good it could be during the lockdowns,
This is a huge point. I remember not having to get up before 5am to travel any more, lunches in the sun in the garden, employers telling everyone to take it easy, observe breaks, spend time with family, checking in to see if you’re ok, spatious walks and bike rides, barely any traffic, and every reason to have a barbecue and enjoy a beer at home (with amounts of bog roll available in mind).
Reflecting about what someone else said earlier in the thread, we are now in more packed environments, endless traffic jams, MS Teams is hugely invasive with mental health of work needing to be heavily managed, massive pressure from employers for “growth”, cost of living and political shenanigans, environmental disasters and even planes falling out of the sky due to cost cutting measures.
I thing the point about direction is important, I wonder whether the whole world is trying to fast to pull in multiple directions at once effectively causing a fractious and overly stressed society.
