We were free

Imagen1Sometimes I succumb to my obsession of questioning the realities that present themselves to me as true and/or to some sentences that attempt to philosophize about some aspect of life, and that are given for certain without further analysis.

I understand that most people are just trying to have fun in a light way, rather than inviting people to digress about the subject. I apologize beforehand to those who think it’s inappropriate to do so.

However, my obsession is still there, and this is particularly the case with the image that accompanies this text.

It Indicates:

When the phone was tied with a wire, Humans were free..

It depends that what you define like free.

I remember that in my professional beginnings, when there was no use today with mobile phones, I had to stay long hours on duty at the office waiting for some incident to happen that fortunately never happened. Losing valuable time of family life or simply of recreational leisure. Today most guards can be done remotely, which means I can do whatever personal activities I need, as long as there is no incident. If he doesn’t show up, I’ve earned that time for myself.

Another aspect of this technological change relates to meetings. Before mobility, when it was necessary to meet it was only in person, forcing all the people involved to move to the place agreed for it, with the consequent waste of time in this movement. Today I can be in meetings from any location with a signal, and my time dedicated to the meeting is only as long as it takes, earning for me the time associated with travel.

These are only two examples.

I know that you will also be able to give examples to the contrary, and I invite you to do so and to talk about it. For my part I am available even though it seems a little serious, because I understand that the image is not intended to go beyond being a meme.

Those that did not exist before the current mobility.
