This is an impossible demand masquerading as common sense. Nobody can be at peak performance all the time, and a sane work environment shouldn't expect you to.
- mtreis86 10y agoI think "give their best" is an entirely relative term. The best today may far exceed best tomorrow if you rate the effort based on work accomplished or effort given. But if you are rating both of those days purely on 'the best you could do given circumstances' then there is no peak performance persay.
