First, solve the problem at hand. Second, then make your grievances. Always take the high road, and debate later, unless it's a life or death situation. Principles before personalities.
- H8crilA 5y agoWhat grievances? I just mean there's a ton of jobs out there and some of them come with high management pressure, while others don't. And I'm trying to figure out why would specific people take the more stressful kind, for example is there something that compensates for that? Maybe a generous vacation schedule / low workload most of the time?
- eggy 5y agoIn my case, foreign travel and living, very good pay, and I guess I am an adventure junkie. Diving, ropes, bungee jumping, motorcycles, and many other things take my fancy, but sometimes just living somewhere that takes me outside myself. How do you put a value on that? Also, when there's a high signal to noise ratio, the truth tempers it for me no matter who or how much they bluster. For somebody, breaking a finger nail can be a full day ordeal, and that's not being totally sarcastic, but realizing that you need to understand what perspective the other person has. The COO/CFO is looking at managing the fallout of your immediate emergency, so they have other things on their minds, and perhaps they don't maintain a professional persona that day, but hey, I have my bad days too, and I'd like to get through it as smoothly as possible. When you are fast to point your finger at someone, remember, there are three of your own fingers pointing right back at you!
