I thought as we have looked at the views of the working class and the middle class workers of America I wanted to have a look at different viewpoint of work in America and that is the idea of work as fun. My presentation will be looking at the idea suggested by Jude in the handbook about the idea of the IT industry providing a life of both work and pleasure.
i'll be looking at what it is like to work at google and facebook, and how this relates to the values of work and fulfillment. From what i have examined they are not conventional work places, and they market their jobs as fun, exciting and innovative. I will compare these ideas to that of the themes that we have studied this module and also look at the downside to working at these so called "perfect" jobs.
Also i will be looking at the article from the keywords book- "Modern" by Chandan Reddy and seeing how this fits in with the idea of the "innovative workplace"
