I am inherently passionate about the things I do. That doesn't mean doing over time. It means that when we're in a planning meeting I am contributing and trying to get the best outcome. When I write code, I clarify requirements and I write the code to a high standard following recommended practices. I do static analysis on the code and fix it. I test it before it goes to QA.
Not for a promotion but because that is why I am there. Anything less would be mind numbingly boring.
- johnea 3y agoI've always felt that this word is missused in modern HR. To me, passion at work might be something like making out in the broom closet with a (willing) coworker 8-) Passion is an inherently emotinal state, not always the best basis for clearly thought out action. The idea that this is all a management ploy to get more work for the same money is already well represented here, so I won't dive into that, but that is also a significant part of why I don't like this concept in HR recruiting.
- thunky 3y ago> I am contributing and trying to get the best outcome So doing the job you were hired for is being passionate?
- june_twenty 3y agoBased on planning sessions I've been in - yes. There's lots that will just passively sit there until called upon.
