Back to school

Back to a barrage of pictures of tiny wee folk in backpacks with uncertain grins. They are all being initiated. Many don't think of this when sending a 3 or 4 year old to full day school for the first time, but you have effectively started them on their lifetime of 9 to 5 culture. From their first day of kindergarten, you have now decided they will spend the rest of their life until they retire (if they can!) working from 9 to 5 everyday.  They are being conditioned. Here is my favourite article on 9 to 5 culture, and one I love to revisit when we find ourselves spending too often or earning for more.
