Oh, yes, in Keynes's view, our inferiority lies in "no country or nation can look forward to this era of leisure and prosperity without fear."

Internationally recognized, the first person to study karoshi was Japanese scholar Morioka Takashi. His most famous work is called The Age of Overwork. Morioka Koji devoted his life to studying the social problem of "karoshi" and even promoted the formulation of Japan's Law on the Promotion of Prevention and Control Measures such as Karoshi.
Morioka Koji knew he had a heart attack when he was young, but he often fell into a state of overwork in order to study too hard. A China scholar who has a working relationship with him said in an interview that Morioka Koji often answers emails at two or three in the middle of the night. Finally, the scholar who studied karoshi all his life died of a heart attack in August 20 18.
In an interview before his death, Hiroji Morioka expressed his anxiety about his work: I don't know when he will fall down, so I can't leave regrets.

In the 2 1 1920s, when black swans and grey rhinos were running around, anxiety seemed to escalate again.

There are not a few young people who face the same anxiety as this friend. The fast-paced and high-intensity working life makes them miserable. When there are more development opportunities in first-tier cities, they cannot choose to leave. However, with the adjustment of national development strategy, more and more cities are becoming the next stop for people in the workplace. The report "Natural Introversion" shows that the talent attraction of more and more cities is gradually increasing, among which Changsha, Chengdu and online celebrities are the representatives.
The flow of talents means that people in the workplace make career development choices with actions, but on the other hand, the employment pressure outside the first-tier cities is not small.

When they were asked to sum up the past year in one word or one word, the top five most frequently appeared were "effort", "change", "anxiety", "refueling" and "life".
This result makes us very moved, and the power to make us cry is still there.
Under anxiety and pressure, what people in the workplace do is not to lie in the same place, but to find their own way under pressure and move forward with anxiety.
