I don't wish this to be specific and so I am posting it seperately.
Anyone who complains about their work yet posts here hundreds of times a day sure can hardly complain surely?
It seems a strange juxtaposition for anyone to belittle their work colleagues for not valueing them yet still manage to spend a significant amount of their working day reading and responding to posts.
You can't have it both ways.
I dont think its easy as to say you spend 1 hour a day surfing the web therefore your not working longer/harder/more effectively than your colleagues.
How many of your colleagues smoke for example?
Work issues arent specifically about effort neither. If I felt people were playing political games around me at work, i would moan about it.
Its nothing to do with my level of effort or time spent on here or anywhere else. It would be something I dont like.
Equally undervaluing people/working in a rubbish environment tends to demotivate people. Demotivated people dont/cant work hard especially if the environment is causing them stress. Its difficult to have a clear mind if your under stress from whatever avenue.
People are different. Some people are highly productive/dont chat at all. I have a colleague who is an 8 to 4 man. He works hard and effectively. Where I am 9.30 till 6.30/7.30 some days. People just have different work styles and do things different ways. I personally prefer to chat to my colleagues/surf the web occasionally even if it means I am in the office a little bit longer. All work and no play makes jack a dull boy and all that.
Some people are good at their job as they are just good at it. Some people have to work really hard to be at the same level.
I just dont think you can assume that because someone posts on an internet forum, that they arent good/effective at their job.
