186 - Office Work

Working in an office has many constraints, especially as it is usually because it is organized around a hierarchy. when you spend a lot of time in a hierarchy it can be difficult to imagine a different kind of existence.

 

It is easy to see people as one thing, and one thing only, and that is their pigeonhole in the hierarchy. The accountant is only the accountant. Just as importantly many people come to see themselves as their pigeonhole description.

 

People, though, are so much more. Our existences at work and elsewhere are transitional, capable of change. If only we can tell what parts of us are core, and what parts just added on to do a job.
