Hi Jerry, I read your post and thought, hey, I'd buy that book if the title were Working in the Dark: When Your Job Is The Source of Your Depression. I'm only half-kidding, I've been in the work force for a long time and I'm convinced that often our jobs either make us sick or help keep us sick. It's a bitter pill to swallow to know where I work they claim to emphasize good health, staying healthy, getting healthy, yet employ abusive people in supervisory positions, force people to work in filthy, stifling or freezing environments (and by forcing I mean: first to deny the reality of the unsafe, unhealthy environment, and if the employee persists, say take it or leave as the answer if anyone complains or asks for relief), discourage and frown on people taking breaks, lunch hours, and vacation time. The work around for many people is to call in sick several times a week (some days I am the only employee who shows up), clock in and then simply disappear for hours, to deliberately not do the work, forcing someone else to do it, and to emotionally abuse each other. I'd say people would be shocked if I told them where I work, but some of what I have said above could apply to a lot of work places in the US. And here's the deal. I don't have any doubt that the people doing these things are suffering (from something). I believe most healthy employed people want to work and do a good job, want to feel proud and a sense of accomplishment from putting their talents and skills to good use. But a lot of companies shoot themselves in the foot because they don't make sure that their employees can actually do their jobs without serious trauma, physical and emotional. And I'm not talking about inherently dangerous work like police or military or firefighting. I'm talking about office work, factory work, retail. I often come home feeling as though I have been through a storm.
