It undervalues our profession in the eyes of other that are not part of it, heavily. It also undervalues your dedication to your work in their eyes. Your coworkers and others may not say anything to you, but from personal experience, your bosses will notice what you are doing and you will be skipped from promotions and seniority.
With the best of my intentions, and please don't take it any other way: If you want seniority, and the compensation and perks that come with it, plan for it much in the same way you plan development.
- rasur 10y agoThanks, I appreciate the comment (and your intentions), however working in a Swiss company with a _lot_ of German speakers (plus actual Germans, too ;) ) I can assure you that if the occasional 'quack' was the issue something would have been said a long time ago :) EDIT: Now self-deprecating humour, that has been an issue :D EDIT2: I mean _other_ forms of self-deprecation, not quacking.
