Abstract
After a short discussion on management strategies which stress the private or domestic standpoint for the purpose of industrial production, the article focuses on breaks in the boundaries that separate work time and leisure time. Destabilized relations as an impact of automation are investigated. One of the effects is that the more competent the workers are in working life, the more incompetent in private life. In this opposition of private life and working life the arrangement of problems is blocked. Problems at work are perceived through the spectacles of the private. They are subordinated to the private and instead of being worked at and solved, are defined as less important.Keywords
