Social perception of work and non-work

  The world is once again subject to debates about the social perception of the lazy and unemployed. Some complain about social transfers, others would worry about world hunger and migration to the country. Still others feel sorry for migrants or the poor in another country.

The most vocal are currently those who oppose social transfers that belong to people of working age. There are slightly fewer of those who offer jobs and who turn to Employment Services and other employment agencies to help them find suitable workers. Very often, there are also statements in the public that employers cannot fill vacancies or obtain an adequate workforce.

Still others would assign unemployed people to public works without payment for work. Such actions would most likely also cause an additional shortage of jobs in state structures and debates about exploiting the shortage of jobs and in this way also obtaining free labor or simply further exploiting the shortage of jobs. Some, of course, are already comparing such a system to work centers or camps from the past.

Even on-the-job training, which does not bring any payment for work, but you can only obtain increased social assistance depending on the activity, is controversial for many. The need for on-the-job training can mean questionable training for work through the education system and, of course, nullify the acquired professional education, which is supposed to be intended for adequate qualifications for work in individual fields. There is also a lack of tracking the number of on-the-job trainings and subsequent employment with this employer, or the success of this program for reducing unemployment. This also applies to the fact that each employer focuses on the specificity of its business and thus the complexity of its jobs.

There are also findings that some employers simply exploit state subsidies to employ older and younger workers from year to year. Similar statements also appear for existing public works, which are not always equivalent to regular employment.

 Paid employment is becoming a rare commodity. Finding a job is the responsibility of the individual. With all the employment services, it is difficult to find referrals for job interviews. And it is very rare to find a statement that individual employment services are unable to provide workers to companies. This also gives rise to the conclusion that anyone who pays for work fairly has never had problems with labor or human capital.

The lack of low-educated workers is a mere fantasy. In the entire European Union, the highest number of unemployed people are precisely those with a low educational level. In fact, the unemployment rate decreases with a higher level of education, at least according to official data. Of course, we must also take into account the fact that the share of those who achieve higher education is smaller. There are fewer and fewer people who complete higher levels of education, since the level of education achieved in a certain generation resembles a triangle.

The fantasy of slackers, which appears on social networks and in government circles, is also insufficiently proven. Proof of laziness is very easily feasible through referrals to vacant jobs and refusals of paid work based on the adequacy of education. However, these numbers are very rare and few. So the populist rhetoric that able-bodied people should be in jobs and not on social assistance remains, including insults to workers who cannot secure employment and the spending of state money on various employment subsidies.

Social sense

  People still like to rely on our hearts, or on the aroused heartfelt and kind-hearted or charitable feelings that are projected to us by the confessed hardships of others, the threat and exposure to violence of false and real victims. The heart is guided by the image or promotion of the victims or their confessions and stories, which can be true or imaginary. Our social-compassionate reactions, however, depend on the well-presented story of the alleged victims. The paradox of the well-presented story of the victim and the reality of real life goes so far in everyday life that we actually recognize starvation even in very well-nourished people or even in obese people, who are such without any disease that would cause bloating or obesity. On the other hand, we recognize a starving or, in colloquial terms, a thin person as someone who is deliberately losing weight, wants to have a model figure, or  some other way causes their own underweight. It is difficult to leave it to doc...

Are fruits and vegetables medicine

There is an increasing emphasis on healthy eating in our everyday lives. The human body can be compared to a machine that needs proper power supply or energy source to function. The source of energy is usually fats and sugars or carbohydrates. Very often, we are also advised to eat fruits and vegetables and not just bread and water. Energy-rich, because the human body also needs energy for its daily functioning, are usually sweets such as chocolates, cakes, cookies, etc. Fruits and vegetables are said to contain minerals and vitamins in addition to some fiber, so doctors very often advise eating certain types of fruits and vegetables when an illness occurs. The disease scurvy, which appeared in sailors, is said to have been forgotten for a long time. Thus, citrus fruits such as lemons and oranges or tomatoes were slowly added to the diet, as they are said to contain higher amounts of vitamin C. It is also recommended to consume vitamin C to strengthen the general natural immune or defe...

Ljubica je lahko zaposlena, žena ne

  Naša nadvse kultivirana družba se rada pohvali tudi z družbeno podporo družini. Družina naj bi bila namreč temelj naše družbe. Družino si  namreč tudi svobodno ustvarjamo in temelji na ljubezni, medsebojnim spoštovanjem in skupnim gospodinjstvom ali dohodki in odhodki. V naši družbi pa imamo kot vedno prisotne tudi paradokse in/ali kontradiktornosti med teorijo in prakso. V teoretičnem delu urejanja medsebojnih odnosih, vključno z družinskimi,  je zapisano, da žena ali mož javnega uslužbenca ali uslužbenke nikakor ne moreta biti zaposlena v neki javni službi. Nekateri to označujejo celo kot nepotizem ali nastanek klana neke družine, ki bi rada prevzela vse ključne družbene funkcije in jih spremenila v družinske. V praktičnem delu naše družbe ali vsakdanjem življenju pa se radi pojavljajo v družini, ki naj bi temeljila na monogamiji dveh ljubečih partnerjev, neregistrirani razširjeni člani družine, ki so v bistvu ljubimci in ljubice. Vsekakor pa so tudi ti kršitev monoga...
