null Just a job, away of putting food on the table and paying the rent/bills 

The pandemic has caused significant numbers of employees to question whether they want to change jobs and do something different. The return to work has reveal previously unrecognised or ignored levels of disengagement. The management have tended to assume that whilst a minority of employees may feel it’s just a job and do as little as they can get away with the majority care about... Voir plus

null Why do they do it

Have you ever wondered why they do it? Despite their claims of noble motives the impression was that ordinary life was just too hum drum compared to the buzz and adrenaline rush of the fight. This was the commentators view on those who had left these shores to fight Isis. But the way these fighters talked was no different to the video messages sent by those they were fighting!
