Bosses love to think that they know it all, but they operate on limited info like everybody else. This just shows how stupid it is to work hard for a job, when everything is based on impressions and not on any kind of objective measures.
I work hard for myself at work. To know my day and time wasn’t wasted. I also try to learn something new every day. If I’m gonna be a wage slave I’m gonna be a smart wage slave.
…wait.
I’ve seen unproductive people succeed simply because they show up early and leave late while doing less than average work. It’s all about appearances.
Hard working unproductive people become in time hard working productive people. Lazy productive people become in time lazy unproductive people. Skill issue on your side tbh.
Hey thanks for your assessment of my skill without knowing the first thing about me. Hard working is something else than just being in the office every day from 8 to 6.
It’s a running joke where I work just how hard it is to get fired. One of the few stories I know of someone who was fired involved an employee for whom my employer paid multiple times for courses of rehab. He was finally fired when after all that they found him at his desk so drunk they basically couldn’t wake him at all.
Sleeping for 10 hours in a closet would do enough damage to my body that i’d quit my job and get a disability pension
The secret to promotion is to be competent but not amazing.
If you’re good enough not to be fired, but not so good you’re indispensable in your current role, your boss will be happy to recommend you for promotion to get you out of their umbrella.
Does everyone in this thread work in a warehouse?
