Word of the Week #269:
You know what? I really have had a good experience with my bosses.
I know a lot of people—including most of my friends—would have experiences that would make them disagree, but I feel like I have people who would have my back, if something goes wrong.
Like, just last week, my manager asked me to take a look at a project and let her know how long it would take.
It was a tough project, one unlike any we have worked on recently. Still, it was interesting and not too long, so I was confident.
I thought about it for a while before sending a mail: “Three days, but I can do it in two if it is urgent.”
She replied: “Okay. Submit it in four days.”
And honestly, I’ve been so happy ever since.
Nothing better than going into a project with joy, right? It’s good for everyone involved. And yet, I don’t see it happening in enough workplaces.
If you ask me, that’s just bad business.
