日本ではペットのことをうちのアイドルと言います。家族のアイドル的な存在だからそんな風に言うんだと思います。大抵の場合はペットを可愛がって甘やかしたり、至れり尽くせりする人が多いと思います。私の家族も同様で、少しでも役に立ちそうとか健康に良さそうと思った物には惜しみなくお金を使っていますし、ソムちんのためならとみんな協力します。

今日はうちのアイドルソムちんを紹介します。ソムちんは約1年前に我が家にやってきたポメチワ(ポメラニアン✖️チワワ)の女の子です。母の一目惚れで我が家の一員になりました。本当の名前はラルですが、私はあだ名としてタイ語でオレンジ🍊という意味のソムと呼んでいます。

実は私は昔も犬を飼っていたことがあったので犬を飼う喜びも大変さも分かっていました。(子供の時から飼い始めて、最後は一人暮らししていた家で看取りました。)だから、家族で唯一飼うことに反対しました。他の家族は「良いじゃん、良いじゃん」と大賛成でしたが、私はうちの家族には時間がなさすぎると感じていました。そんな中で家族が私の反対を押し切って迎えたのがソムちんです。飼い始めた時は家族はできると言ったのに全然お世話しきれず、私もたくさん協力したし、よく家族と言い合いになったり、喧嘩したりしました。今は1年経ってそれぞれの役割ができて、落ち着きました。

さて、そんな経緯で家族になったソムちんですが、性格が強いと家族から言われています。例えばおもちゃを引っ張り合いしているときにどんどんエスカレートして人に噛みついてきたり、赤ちゃんぐずるように眠くなると攻撃的になってしまうことがよくあるんです。元々ポメラニアンもチワワも性格がキツいと聞いたので納得です。家族には負けず嫌いなところと眠いと不機嫌になるところが私によく似ていると言われています😅

好きなことはおやつと散歩です。おやつが大好きでパッケージが開く音がするとキラキラした目で釘付けになります。時々、ご飯を食べないでボイコットし、おやつをもらおうとします。そんな時、私は絶対にあげませんが、家族は甘やかすので時々あげているみたいです。家族がよくおやつをあげるので私はおやつをあげませんが、代わりにたくさん散歩に連れていったり、運動🥎させるようにしています。私が散歩に行くと1時間くらいは歩いたり、公園で遊んだりするので帰ってくるとソムちんはクタクタになっています。その夜もよく寝てくれるので私は日本にいるときは頻繁にソムちんを連れ出すようにしています。ソムちんが大人しくなるので家族にも感謝されることが多いです笑

Man Fired for Keeping Webcam Off Awarded $73,000
A remote worker who was fired for refusing to keep his camera on while working has been awarded about $73,000 by a Dutch court.

The man, whose name was not made public, had been working for the US software company Chetu in the Netherlands since 2019. On August 23, 2022, while working remotely, he was told by his employer that he should keep his webcam on all day for online training.

The employee said he didn't feel comfortable being monitored on camera for nine hours, and refused to do so. He added that the company could already see all activities on his laptop and that he was also sharing his screen.

But Chetu said that having a camera on was no different from being watched in an office. And the company fired him.

Finding this unfair, the man took the company to court in the Netherlands. He told the court that he hadn't been given clear enough reasons for being fired, and that asking him to keep his camera on for the whole workday was against his right to privacy.

And the court agreed. Chetu now must pay the man about $73,000.

While using a webcam to check on employees may not be very common, computer programs that monitor employee activity have become popular.

A survey from 2021 found that 60% of US companies with remote workers were using employee monitoring software, and 81% of those companies found that their workers were more productive while being monitored.

Workload overwhelm is a state of chronic stress experienced when an individual is assigned a volume of tasks exceeding their capacity to complete them within a reasonable timeframe. This condition is often characterized by a sense of being perpetually behind, difficulty prioritizing, and a decline in overall performance. Workload overwhelm can manifest in various forms, including excessive project loads, unrealistic deadlines, and insufficient resources. It is a prevalent issue in contemporary organizations, often stemming from poor resource allocation, ineffective project management, or unrealistic expectations. The consequences of workload overwhelm can be detrimental to both individuals and organizations, leading to burnout, decreased job satisfaction, reduced productivity, and increased turnover. Effective management strategies are essential to mitigate the negative impacts of workload overwhelm and foster a healthy work environment.

Key factors contributing to workload overwhelm include:

Inefficient task allocation: Unbalanced distribution of tasks among team members.

Poor time management: Ineffective prioritization and time allocation.

Lack of resources: Insufficient personnel, budget, or technology to support workload.

Unrealistic expectations: Demanding excessive output without considering capacity.

Organizational culture: Emphasis on overwork and presenteeism.

Addressing workload overwhelm requires a multifaceted approach involving individuals, teams, and organizations. Implementing time management techniques, effective communication, and clear expectations are essential steps. Organizations should prioritize workload management through proper resource allocation, realistic goal setting, and a focus on work-life balance. By recognizing the signs of workload overwhelm and taking proactive measures, individuals and organizations can mitigate its negative consequences and create a more sustainable work environment.
