work


In physics, work is defined as a force causing the movement—or displacement—of an object. In the case of a constant force, work is the scalar product of the force acting on an object and the displacement caused by that force. Though both force and displacement are vector quantities, work has no direction due to the nature of a scalar product (or dot product) in vector mathematics. This definition is consistent with the proper definition because a constant force integrates to merely the product of the force and distance.

Why is work important?


The status of work in contemporary societies is the result of a long historical process. It is not only an indispensable means of enhancing individual senses of usefulness and belonging but also of providing financial means. Work is also central in several other dimensions, namely in its role as a socializing mechanism, as a source of social exchanges, and individual identities. Thus, work can be seen as the pillar of social organization, but also, to a large extent, as an important pillar of the existential organization of individuals. It is a fundamental feature in many dimensions of social integration, such as health, housing, and interpersonal networks. Hence, the relevance of Work Integration Programmes (WIP) aimed at improving the condition of vulnerable groups.

work is an important feature in structuring: personal and social identity; family and social bonds; ways of making money, and thereby accessing a number of essential and non-essential goods, services and activities; daily routines; level of activity; physical and mental well-being; self-confidence and self-esteem; a sense of self-worth provided by the feeling of contributing to society or the common good

•For societies, 

work is an important feature in promoting community cohesion and safety; increasing civic participation; reducing public spending in a range of welfare benefits (provided, of course, that work is performed in a decently paid job); promoting social and economic development; organizing social life at a macro level.

When success in these dimensions is challenged WIPs become more important. The relevance of WIPs is made even more acute when both macro and microstructural conditions create obstacles to the positive role of work. These must be carefully considered:

Macrostructural conditions:

 the current European crisis reflected in the rise of unemployment and job precariousness; the transformation of work ethics that has been going on over the past few decades: as jobs become increasingly precarious, subject to sudden change or elimination, individuals have a decreased sense of security, commitment and loyalty towards their jobs and each other (see: Public Policy).
Microstructural conditions: work is not, by itself, synonym with integration. Indeed, precarious, unappealing, dangerous, low-paid, and low-status jobs relegate individuals to the margins of society.
Yet, despite these current conditions, work is still a central piece in our societies and a crucial factor in the social integration of vulnerable groups.

Benefits to Being the Oldest in a Family

  • You set the precedence for every other child.

Every rule, every milestone will happen for the other kids only when it happens to you first. You are essentially where everything begins. You are the model for everything your brothers and sisters will ever get. You are the gauge for every important milestone — If you get a TV in your room at 12 years old, then your younger siblings will want to be 12 too. You are the example — whether it comes to try a musical instrument, going out on a date, or even just getting the chance to pick the paint color for your own room. That bar is set with you. In addition, you will get to try more things. Depending on your experience (and your parents’), chances are your siblings getting to try new things may get lost as the years go by. If you fall in love with Boy Scouts, other younger brothers might be nudged in that direction too.

A holiday of any kind will work wonders for both a child’s and an adult’s health and wellbeing, allowing them to take some precious time away from the everyday stresses of modern life, be it work or school-related. Often, you will not even realise how much you need a holiday until a few days of rest, relax and recuperation has already worked its wonders.

In addition to overall health, family holidays also tend to involve some form of ‘green exercise’, which related to being active outdoors and has time and time again been proven to boost both physical and mental wellbeing. This is particularly applicable in regards to a glamping holiday, where connecting with nature has a host of benefits, including improving your mood, giving you a confidence boost and helping your body to produce virus and tumour fighting white blood cells.

What is needed to maintain the relationship

  • Communication

You’ve definitely heard the very cliché “communication is key.” But here’s the thing – it’s a cliché for a reason. Good communication is one of the most important aspects of having a healthy relationship. When starting a new relationship, it’s important to be able to talk about what you both want and expect. Sometimes this means being honest and having uncomfortable conversations, but if you’re in a healthy relationship your partner will be receptive and listen (and you should do the same). Being on the same page as your partner goes a long way and opening up to your partner about what’s bothering you, compromising over your disagreements, and complimenting each other are all equally as important. 

       While communication is important, you should both be comfortable with how often you talk to one another. If your partner needs you to always answer right away and text them all day long, and you don’t want that, that’s not healthy. On the flip side, if your partner is always ignoring your texts and it doesn’t make you feel good, then that’s not healthy either. Finding a communication balance that you’re both comfortable with is super important.
