A new era is upon us. Call it what you will: the service economy, the information age, the knowledge society. It is all translated to a fundamental change in the way we work. Already we’ve partly been there. The percentage of people who earn their living by making things has fallen dramatically in the Westeni World. Today the majority of jobs in America, Europe and Japan ( two thirds or more in many of these countries) are in the service industry, and the number is on the rise. More women are in the work force than ever before. There are more part time jobs. More people are self-employed. But the breadth of the economic transformation can’t be measured by numbers alone, because it is also giving rise to a radical new way of thinking about the nature of work itself. Long-held notions about jobs and careers, the skills needed to succeed, even the relation between individuals and employers -- all these are being changed.
We have only to look
A. the difference between the employee and the employer has become insignificant
B. people's traditional concepts about work no longer hold true
C. most people have to take part-time jobs
D. people have to change their jobs from time to time
