[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 300477, member: 927"] Well, I guess it depends on your perspective. If your goal is to stay at your current level and not have greater influence on the company, then I wholeheartedly agree. Almost 25 years ago, that's how I felt. A very senior manager made it clear that I was not going anywhere with this company, so I decided to just put in my time. Similar to what was posted here. I did what was expected of someone at my level, and nothing more. That lasted about a week, until I decided that I had more to give than that, and wanted to make an impact. That was 25 years and many promotions ago. I didn't have to **** ***, but I also didn't act like a rebel. If I thought I had a good idea, I gathered facts and presented it in a professional manner. Sometimes it was accepted, sometimes not. That's how it is today when people that report to me make a proposal. So, its up to the individual. You can make this career what you wish. If you choose to do the bare minimum, that's your choice. P-Man [/QUOTE]
