They all happen together though . The country can only afford to produce more energy if they people can afford it , and if the people can afford it then the chances are they can start to afford a lot of the things listed above . <| sep |> Same thing ? I ' m a big advocate of businesses being flexible with their staff and allowing everyone the option of working from home if it makes sense . Lying about being sick to spend the day at home though either means the individual is taking the piss , or it means the company should really be more flexible . I genuinely don ' t really care about other people ' s companies though , but if you really really wanted to discuss my views of workplace ethics I ' m happy to do so !
