Instead, what she found upon meeting folks on the ground was that every interview, people just talked about their own work ethic, somebody else lacking work ethic, or the value of hard work, she tells Grow. Even in the absence of jobs, work remained key in measuring human value. With whatever external proof they could find, people really, really did make the big show of letting me know that, I m a worker, she says.
