Geheral Rule for Employment or Labor Day

When you take on some years, and people are paying even less attention to you than usual, you can come up with and state general rules for all kinds of things just as if they've been gospel all along, and without fear of refutation. Therefore here a month late is one I cooked up for Employment Day, or as it is more commonly known, Labor Day, though it must have dawned upon many others throughout the ages.

From personal experience and from the experiences of many others, no matter how difficult, dangerous, or boring a job is, it seems to me that the biggest drawback to any employment anywhere almost always boils down to just one thing, and that is the trouble caused by one's co-workers.

Therefore in "Help Wanted" ads you will see praises for all the aspects of a job, but rarely will you see something like, "with co-workers all of whom are congenial people of good character."

But maybe that's because there seldom has been any agreement on what constitutes "good character," and that seems to be true today more than ever.
