Are you one of those people who only does enough when it comes to your job, or do you go above and beyond that and do more then what's asked/expected of you?
| I work harder then what's expected of me. | 58 | |
| I perform up to the standard. Nothing more. | 28 | |
| I like to do less then what's expected of me. | 16 |
I perform to the standard expected, the standard expected is already too darn high
I use to bust my ass at every and any job, I mean I would always go above and beyond for every employer. But after twenty years of it, I realized that nobody actually cares and I was burning myself out for nothing. Now I do everything that is expected, and I only go out on a limb every now and then. My stress level went way down and my employers still loved me and rewarded me with bonuses and raises quite often. I think I used to be a stressed-out work-whore and when I stopped, the brilliant things I did were recognized and appreciated more.
I have to note one more thing: Honestly, it's rare to find someone under the age of 25 with a sharp work ethic. :) Depressing, but true.
im 18 i work 50+ hours a week i always get the cafe i work at for minimum wage opened and ready by the time it needs to be and i go above and beyond my job requirement's to make sure everything goes smoothly i manage other staff *not my job* *do ordering food coffee stock ect* also not my job* find staff to cover when people are sick as my manager is a fat lazy bitch. i have to get up at 5am to get to work at six as i dont have a car or any other method of transport and am never late.
id say i have a very good work ethic and most of my friends are the same.
so id say its not true.
Are you asking me to tell you what I am or what I think I am?
Cause,I might think I am one who works harder than he is expected but my boss might disagree.
Have always worked harder than I need to. Has often caused me to be taken advantage of but in my current job it is appreciated. 3-4 payrises within a year, managing my own area & lots of small perks.
24 by the way... & often lecturing, training & showing up people with twice my experience.
Found my groove!
I work harder than is expected, but that's because I want to get really good at what I do.
I work in customer service, it is my job to do more than what's expected of me. Sometimes that means I just have to answer the phone and be human. Not really hard work.
