I feel like I spent all day playing catch up at after being out sick on Friday. There's just so much to do, and I feel like I'm responsible for so much more than I actually am. I want the program to succeed, so when I see people giving less than they should, or just not being able to do their part, I feel the need to take over. And so I keep adding on more and more responsibilities.
My co-worker was complaining the other day that she would quit if she wasn't given the promotion she deserves... honestly I'll feel cheated if she gets a promotion, or if we get the same promotion. She complains she's always busy, but she spend half of her day on the NY times website and the other half complaining about any extra work she has to do.
I know that no one has the same work ethic that they had 50 years ago, but I don't know where this feeling of entitlement came from. Like if you show up and just do your job, somehow you should be awarded, like doing the bare minimum today is somehow equal to above and beyond.
