[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would also add that doing your best (even if your best isn't as good as some others around you) - goes a long way.   I will always, always, give preference to the person who is giving me everything that he has as opposed to the person that is performing OK but mailing it in.  Spend more time trying to improve your effort and less time worrying about how others are being treated.

It depends on how you define giving your best vs mailing it in.  Performance matter.  If you can get the job done in 40 hours, great.  I would rather have someone who works their 8 hours, then goes home vs 14 hours doing the same quality work.  Why?  Well, the 14 hr person will burn out.  It is not sustainable.[/quote]

What about someone who can get their work done in 5 to 6 hours doing the same quality work as others who take 8 hours?  Out of a department of around 10, 2 or 3 need 5 to 6 hours to do the job, 4 or 5 take around 8 hours, and 2 or 3 take 9 to 10 hours. Who would you rather have?[/quote]
