00:00In some Asian countries, folks greet each other at the end of their day with gratitude.
00:05Whether they were working at a desk, serving food, cleaning or managing a major firm, they had all been contributing to their society's growth and welfare.
00:17The respect for hard work is no longer a top priority in modern Western societies.
00:23Unfortunately, the outward look of the undertaken job is much more important to many.
00:28We live in a media-led world with older values disappearing under the weight of superficial hashtags.
00:37For instance, modeling or other show-business-based occupations will be regarded as way superior to menial tasks.
00:45The risk in that attitude, of course, is that respect will be lost for many true and reliable pillars of this society.
00:53So next time you see someone weighed down by the work of the day, thank them, for they are valuable and essential to our survival.
