Great article. I think people cannot work less just because of higher productivity. The demand for work continuously increases with even greater challenges as time changes.

I think serving your time is really just proving yourself to the firm to some extent. In any job new employees generally should be trying to prove they are trustworthy and hard working, showing they’re worthy of more responsibility (and the benefits that come with it).

I hadn’t really thought of that – if I do a good job setting things up now, then the folks who come along two or three years behind me may have less work to do because the process is better.

I think one of the challenges with technology is definitely that you are not learning how to do it 100% the way you would if, for example, you had to finish a tax return and all you had to start with was the blank form. The software definitely makes it easier to get numbers in the right places without having to think about it.

I can’t say that it equates to “doing ones time”. I think it has something to do with exposing the new members of the team to as much as possible to pull them up. And I could also say that the processes used by the newbies is so streamlined that the older members may not truly know if the newbies learned the task or just how to make it work with the technology. What I am trying to say is that it is a different learning curve and everyone needs to adjust their perspectives. Seniors may be a bit jealous of the progress and how folks have it “easier”. In thier eyes.
