An albatross is something that hangs around a person's neck, inhibiting his/her freedom. Now one's work or profession, especially in the urban areas where commuting is becoming more time-consuming & nerve wracking, has become an albatross, preventing one from having any other interests or social activities. Instead of providing a livelihood for a person to lead a full life, it is stultifying & suffocating human dignity.
Art, Culture & Sports which alone distinguish man from animals are banished from everyday life, effectively dehumanising man into an economically productive robot. Now itself, one listens with increasing frequency, about burnout, heart attacks & even suicides as if life is only possible under these toxic work conditions. Posterity can only tell what calamitous effect this can have on future generations. Corporate Culture, the main stay of "non-compassionate" capitalism, limping from quarterly to ever higher quarterly returns, is aiming to return humanity to the dark ages of the industrial revolution, where human resource was considered the cheapest of all natural resources.
Correct Sir. Corporate Culture, the main stay of "non-compassionate" capitalism has entered and Settled in Public Sector Organisations too, including Banks.
