On the other hand, if nobody wants, is asking about, or cares about Important Thing You Want To Do, that's a sign you probably shouldn't do it.

- fifticon 5y agoI see it differently. At work, we have several bothersome but sorely needed issues that needs doing, but no one is volunteering to do them, because they mostly consist of loads of thankless work, that may drag on, and will distract you from tasks that earn easier praise. Eventually, one or more of us get sufficiently annoyed to clean up whatever the issue was, but that no one volunteered to work on it, does not mean they are not grateful someone eventually did. I have botb been the volunteer and the feetdragger at times, and have seen colleagues i appreciate in both roles too
