title: [The former generation were the really hard workers].
abstract: Working "hard" is a matter of definition, therefore we are talking about quantity and not quality: The number of productive working hours and not the "hours of attendance" (i.e. unproductive hours). The problem of the current generation is their sense of working hard. This article describes the factors contributing to this feeling.
