Working hard without good purpose is wasteful

If your boss came up to you today and said: from now on, you must respond
to email with a blindfold, what would you think? Likely you would think a)
that's'stupid b) that will be very difficult to do! And you wouldn't
hesitate to think these two things. Yet I see people working who do that all the time. I think working hard is
highly valuable, and working with a purpose is essential, but working hard
without purpose is dumb. If you aren't sure the purpose of your work, or if
it isn't clear, find out or get it clarified. it only makes sense.
