Cooperation and teamwork…

The new time’s melody at our workplaces (since around 20 years) was teamwork. Did something happen in parallel with this “new trend”? I have to add that I think working together can improve what’s done a lot. It CAN, but it doesn’t necessarily do (but that’s another thread).


We shall “teamwork” at workplaces, but what about teamworking i.e. cooperating and getting together about really substantial things outside our workplaces?


You shall but you shall not!?


Came to think about a blogposting today: what about “devoting oneself” to self-damaging behavior? That’s nothing to talk about, because there are other more important and bigger questions. Such as for instance a president forbidding/banning (read: dictating - as a dictator) the further use and selling of a certain sort of light bulbs and a certain sort of fuel consuming carMore on light bulbs.


How tired I get…


We shall work for and only promote ourselves and not care about other people (unless they aren’t higher in the hierarchy than I am)?? Be independent islands all of us. Work in small separated cells, at least outside work. But at work we have to cooperate (AND compete at the same time). Survival of the fittest and the most “adaptable”!


To which people with self-damaging behavior don’t belong! They aren’t really capable of adapting to the society, or workplaces or anything, are they? (observe the irony).


And I can’t help wondering who are the most “adaptable” (how empathic is that)? Are many psychopaths the most “adaptable”?


The weakest and also the most compassionate and empathic can founder!? And many of them also do!?


The biggest bullies are the ones that survive best? Because they aren't called in question??? You tend to admire and look up to those instead?
