[QUOTE="PobreCarlos, post: 622258, member: 16651"] altstewie; Got a kick out of your statement.... "I did do my job" ....specifically, your use of the PAST tense, leaving the present tense alone. I wonder, however, if as an employee you understand what your "job" is/was? I ask because your questioning of managements' gab time and whatever. By that I mean that I wonder if you realize that the "job" of an EMPLOYEE is to FUNCTION as an EMPLOYEE; i.e - submit to the will of his EMPLOYER in return for wages earned. In terms of HIS job, it's immaterial what management does on theirs; their job is to please THEIR employer (ultimately the shareholders), and not you. You see, in the end, it isn't the numbers you're doing that makes the difference; rather, it's how satisfactory you are AS AN EMPLOYEE to the employer. That being "satisfactory", as determined by the EMPLOYER, IS "the job". You have ONE customer; your employer. If you don't please him, you're not doing "your job"....period! May not like to hear that, it may sound "kiss-assy", or whatever, but there it is. In truth, if your employer finds you unsatisfactory as an employee, then (1) you're NOT "doing your job", and (2) you're functioning as an economic parasite on those who are. [/QUOTE]
