[QUOTE="bluehdmc, post: 752655, member: 18471"] Healthy Fear is a good thing. Fear of lightning, wild animals like lions, bears, rattlesnakes, etc. is all well and good. I don't think you need fear as a work motivator, just a good work ethic. I'm motivated by things like food, motorcycles, my mortgage payments, and so on. All fear does is give people ulcers, it may "motivate" people in the short run but then when the fear is removed, the "motivation" is gone. (When the cat's away the mice will play.) This is my opinion, but I could not work someplace where I had to be in fear of losing my job everyday. I go to work, do the job to the best of my ability, and yes, sometimes I ****** up and make mistakes. I own up to my mistakes and let it go. If went to work and had to fear being fired everyday, I'd have to find another job. [/QUOTE]
