Since passed ages, work was considered a naturalactivity, specific especially for adults, developed for producing goods for a better living (for our ownperson, for our family and, indirectly, for society).Today we can notice that work have become the sense of life, the main aim for life. Some peoplework for working, forgetting that the purpose of life is first our becoming, evolution, perfection as humanbeing, through relations with others. Or, today, work has become to signify alienation from others,physical and spiritual, dehumanization.
