    ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted Matt Lowe

    1/ I'm reminded of one of the various reasons I'm glad to no longer be running a firm - fighting with employees to get them to do things. Once I cleaned up a storage room, hauled 3/4 of it to the dumpster, asked two shipping clerks to help w final 1/4. >>>https://twitter.com/hmmlowe/status/1196569217832632321 …

    Love this paper on caste identity and labour supply by Suanna Oh (https://www.suannaoh.com/home ): almost half of the workers refuse to do a 10-minute caste-incongruent task even when offered 10x their daily wage! pic.twitter.com/VJE8pG0MRA

        2/ Foot dragging, complaining, conspicuous absence from the work area ... one guy in particular looked like he'd rather chew off his leg than do work that he considered "beneath" him. So I did 100% of the job myself, instead of merely 90% of it.

        3/ I fired a dozen people over 15 years. He's the only one I really ENJOYED firing. (6 months later, for a different offense)

        I don't think I've ever considered a job beneath me. I have said "that's not my job" when people were trying to foist their assignments off on me, but that is completely different. I've cleaned bathrooms what needed cleaning while dressed in my best suit for court.

        I think you made me realized what I just liked about the "energy" that is present at trade shows: the feeling that it's "all hands on deck." Yes, you're a product designer. And today, your job is to get 500 lbs of that product up to the 10th floor of this convention center.

        When you're one of two people from your company staffing a booth, you gotta do it. no asking questions. If you kvetch, you kvetch not AT people, but WITH people, in solidarity. It's somehow easier, because around you are "famous people" doing the same thing."

        this mindset is utterly bizarre to me my company has six guys at it (I'm not the boss) and, no matter if your job title is "software engineer", if the storage closet needs cleaning out you clean it

        It’s when im asked to do things above my pay grade I might start complaining. Not the first time or second time. But if im consistently asked to do extra work above my pay grade and a raise isn’t forthcoming I’ll have words

        I've worked jobs where they had us come in to do the line workers jobs because we were salaried and they didn't have to pay us overtime, unlike the main employees. Once or twice for emergencies is one thing. When it is deliberate corp policy it is another.
