Vazios do Trabalho

Abstract

This article is a research report developed in the Master’s Degree in Social and Institutional Psychology and its theme is the ramifications of the emptiness on a path through the world of work. The writing of narratives of the daily work operated to open questions about the (im)possibility of doing psychology in a place full of contradictions about the meaning of what the work itself should be there. Through the creation of a character, someone, it seeks to touch on a topic that has no definite boundary, it is more about of an atmosphere, a felt-meaning. The invention of someone is the artifice for the experimentation of lives that are not limited to that lived in the first person by the researcher, allowing the passage through an impersonal place, a place as indeterminate as someone, that makes it possible to think about things that are not hidden, but neither are they visible. The emptiness of meaning experienced in the daily work opens in images/scenes that, when recounted in the written form, transform the emptiness into experience.
