“I transcribed it all into an email and at the bottom put…..all this time study did is waste about 1 1/2 hrs of my day. They never asked me to do it again. 😂”
At a small company, you can actually reach someone. In a larger organization, that bit of common sense would go unnoticed.
I’m from the world where they gave you a job, if you did it, you got paid and got more work to do. If you didn’t, they got rid of you and got someone who would do the job.
They didn’t worry about the time you “wasted” decompressing with coworkers, or just collecting yourself, as long as you did your work in a timely fashion. I also worked in an environment where I was on call and those calls came any time.
Now, there is little to no latitude allowed for being human. You fill in the boxes in 15 min increments and it makes them happy, without regard to real accomplishment. On the flip side, nearly no one is fired. As long as you jump through the hoops, you keep your job. In my opinion, this is much worse.
Agreed. I’d much rather be judged by my accomplishments than by how well I tolerate fools.
