1. Ideally, work should be a place where a person can do something well: a jeweler can make jewelry, a manicurist can do manicures well, a manager can organize workers. And this itself should bring pleasure. It's such an adult pleasure to do something well. For example, when we play tennis: at the beginning it doesn’t work out at all, but then it turns out better and better and that’s a thrill in itself. 2. In addition, at work a person should get pleasure from creating something, some kind of final product: For craftsmen it’s a manicure or a haircut or a piece of jewelry; for a manager it’s the idea of ​​the project, its implementation, getting it “on track” and launching, as well as collecting dividends. That is, a person gets pleasure from understanding the task as a whole, from completing an integral project. 3. In addition, deepening one’s knowledge and recognizing oneself as a specialist should bring satisfaction and increased self-esteem. With each book read, a historian or cultural historian or linguist understands his material better. With each advanced training course, the hairdresser receives more modern techniques, more fashionable and more effective. As a child, a child wants to do something specific: make cars or build cities or be an astronaut - something that is easy to imagine, since there is a specific result of work or image actions. As a child, most likely no one wants to be an academician or an art critic, because this is something abstract. Therefore, after the 9th grade in our country you can go to a vocational school and get such a very specific profession (nurse, cook, jeweler, hairdresser). Higher education implies the development of abstract thinking. That is, non-specific. After university, a person can begin to engage in scientific work, that is, to comprehend general patterns in a given area and draw conclusions. Therefore, points 1 and 2 can be obtained when obtaining a profession at a vocational school, and point 3 is an additional need for development, which is realized at a university or other organization of additional education. Often people go to a university “for the basics”, but then they find out that they want to do something specific and that comprehension and scientific work do not excite them. This is the problem with education in our country. It follows from this that a university graduate is not practical-oriented, he has only theoretical knowledge, he can retell a textbook well, understands the theories of scientists, but in reality he lacks experience in non-scientific work. Therefore, when applying for a job, work experience is required, and for university graduates outside the university it is not so easy to find a job, but it is quite easy to go to graduate school.www.ekaterina-pushkareva.com
