Becoming More Human at Work

Man And Two Women Sitting And Talking In Meeting Room by Scopio from NounProject.com

Be professional
No emotion
No weakness
No pain
Show up no matter what
Like a robot
A cog in the machine
If it breaks down just replace it

Life, happening
Illness
Children
Partners
Bills
Traffic
Work
How can a human be?

A generous empathy, shared
Recognising fellow humans being
Work gets done anyway

Creating machines to replace humans
One day
Machines will want to be human?
