Question

Your older sister, Beth, once sent you a postcard from her job in Washington saying, among other things, that she was feeling alienated at work. You believed then that she had a feeling of belongingness in work, good control of the job, and joy in her position. Now that you have read this chapter was your understanding true or false?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is that my understanding was false.

Explanation:

The word alienated specifically refers to a social condition in which someone feels left out or distanced from a group of people in a work environment. Judging by the context of the sentence that begins with: "You believed then..." tells me that I had a wrong understanding of the social condition at work of my older sister Beth.
