Shift work

Shift work is not a new thing.

Many departments have been working in shifts from ages.

For instance, health department and police department

We also have night trains and buses.

Even manufacturing industries have been working in shifts to increase production.

But today, we belong to a 24/7 society and so shift work has become very-very common.

All these call-centres and other MNCs are working round the clock

Shift work has many advantages

To students, it gives the opportunity to earn while they learn.

To some people it gives the opportunity to look after family commitments/responsibilities

Also, those people who need more money can work two shifts a day

People can also do some side business

On the other hand, shift work has some negative points

The sleep pattern of persons working in shifts is disturbed

This can lead to health problems like hypertension and depressions.

By working at unsociable hours, the family life is also disturbed.

So we can see that as every garden has weeds, similarly, shift work has both, pros and cons

But on the whole pros are much more

Shift work is here to stay

There is simply no going back.

Space Research

There is no doubt that government should spend on health and education, but the money spent on space research is also justified.

Space research has many benefits.

First of all, we have the satellite TV, which is a result of space research

The smoke alarm, which is there in every household in the west, is also because of space research.

The non-stick pan, light weight sports shoes, pace maker of heart, mobile operation theatres and many more such examples are spin-offs of space research.

The artificial limbs of lesser weight are also the result of space research

So, we can see that SR is not just dealing with the stars and planets, it also helps the life of common man.

Who knows, tomorrow, we may need to live on other planets.

Who knows, tomorrow, we may have holidays on the moon.

Who knows, tomorrow, the Earth may be unfit to live.

Who knows, how much benefit, this space research is going to have for our children?

So, you see ma’am, I feel space research needs as much efforts as any other human need does.
