He goes onto to talk about how the future generations will be less motivated to do work, “Generation X… [Is] less likely to adhere to traditional concept of work ethic than prior generations of the force.”(Dr. Howell) This shows that the more futuristic we get and the farther we go into generations the less work ethic the people will have. This is because of the people and jobs that are becoming “futuristic.” After, he speaks about motivated people and how a work ethic affected them at their job. “Persons who have successfully negotiated finding employment and fulfilling job responsibilities tend to work more favorably than those who have had disappointments related to work.” (Dr. Howell) Depending on the job the person has, if they like the job they have they will have a better work ethic than those who have a job which they don’t like. But, Derek Thompson, the author of “A World Without Work” written for the Atlantic in July/August of 2015 argues also shows that when people are out of a job they can actually regain their work ethic, “Some people displaced from the formal workforce will devote their freedom to simple leisure; some will seek to build productive communities
