I like the "after getting hired" quotes; they're all good advice that benefit you, the only caveat is to make sure you aren't getting taken advantage of. Don't overwork yourself to enrich someone else; enrich yourself first.
- BreakoutList 11y agoYes. And often the best way to enrich someone else is to enrich yourself (i.e. people are happy when they are skilled, good at their work, liked by their coworkers, etc; turns out employers also like this).
- jasonmcalacanis 11y agoWhat I've learned about getting "taking advantage of," is that if you're learning and growing you can't be "taken advantage of." Who cares if your boss is getting some great deal on a $ basis if you're getting the experience to be the boss? My advice in this piece is for people who aspire to accomplish great things in their life--not folks who want a "great life" (defined as balance, vacations, etc). So, if you're 35 and have a family this isn't the advice for you (that should be obvious).
