Nowadays,
people easily have access to technology. Internet, laptops, cell phones are key
factors of that. However, with all these applied science, we tent to live our
lives through it. Facebook, Twitter, even our e-mails are forms of
communication that make us to be always connected to a website. When was the
last time that you did not stay front a computer for a long time? And by a long
time I am referring to a year. Do you remember? I do not think so.
During
the last years, people in companies started to use internet as a source to
exchange information with their workers. It is a fast way to be in contact with
employees. Nevertheless, it is normal that people get tired of receiving
messages or emails all the time. The
professor of London’s Global University, Caroline Sauvajol-Rialland, found out
in a study that “excessive emails and general information result in social
and psychological risks to employees and impoverishes the company”. Those workers
spend 30% of their time at work attending calls or emails that demand immediate
answers. Because of that, people get stress easily and their family lives start
to disappear.
We
are becoming slaves of technology and its changes. It would not surprise me
that in a few years, the only way to show that we care for our beloved ones
will be through internet. What do you think?
