run that one by me one more time.
The conflict there is one which is more apparent in a (albeit decayed)
monarchy or other oligarchy than in a more highly evolved society.
Compare the importance of the tasks the oligarch hands out to the need
for the individual citizen's self satisfaction and realization.
If the whole or a part of our society requires that people do jobs they
do not want to do then it should be re-engineered to at least minimise
that.
Portfolio careers are a part of our movement toward a manner of working
which achieves that.
Fitting the employee to the need, and discarding them when the need
temporarily or permanently ceases is not, and does not lead to
happiness, nor in fact to efficiency.
