In terms of doing the work of rebuilding civilization, I bet that you have under-rated the role of organized superstition. At the very least, it seems to play the role of superego for the group, and thereby it can prevent incessant bickerin

The bar and restaurant workers I would hang out with never really seemed to leave work in so far as they would talk about their jobs constantly. Interestingly, the bicycle delivery people I would hang out with would rarely talk about work.
