A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

I'm talking about a cultural problem started by Henry Ford over a hundred years ago called the assembly line. Where you only have one job to do and you do it over amd over with little variation. It started in industry, but shows it's face in every profession.
Im glad your personal experience is better, but that doesn't mean it isn't a very dangerous trend in most professions that this entire post is literally complaining about.
Yes, situations should be more ideal for the worker. But they're not. That is my entire point.
"Working with engineers as my profession"
"Henry Ford over a hundred years ago called the assembly line."
Engineering IS a multidisciplinary career; you are not going to do finite element analysis on a stack of paper, I don't even think governments will accept a full-blown hand sketch drawing. Everyone will at least want a cad file, everyone will want to use software with interoperability, paper doesn't do that...
