For the most part, I love my job. It's interesting, it's different everyday, and I generally work with great people. However, I'm not sure how, but there have been a handful of people I have run into that don't seem to like to work.
A work week is 40 hours. There is a lot that can be accomplished in 40 hours. If you were given 40 hours to work on an assignment, it would not be in good form to tell your boss that you could not get it accomplished because you suffered from "time constraints".
You know what I could do in 40 hours?
- Bake 40 cakes.
- Watch the Back to the Future trilogy 7 times in a row.
- Watch every episode of Man Men.
- Read a whole book. A big one.
So why, prey tell, would you not be able to accomplish a single assignment in 40 hours? Because you don't want to. And that is really annoying. If you're bad at work because you don't understand, fine. If you are bad at work because you are lazy or uninterested, it may be time for one of us to find a new job. And I have a helpful hint, it's probably not me. So please do me a favor of shaping up or shipping out.
