Am I working smart?
We all have deadlines at work. One thing about me is I am really efficient, so I tend to finish my work/report etc., well before the deadline.
Sometimes I submit them earlier in case my management or bosses need to make amendments. However, I only tend to “allow” them to give feedback once.
Let me explain. Let’s say I have a deadline on Friday, and I submitted on Monday. I received some feedback and comments and so worked on the amendments and resubmit on Tuesday. Now, if I receive more requests for amendments, I will hold of submission until the very last minute so that nobody will request for more “incremental” amendments to be made.
I realised that if I do my submissions right on the deadline, there is usually no further amendments required.
Is this being smart or just being lazy?
Here are what netizens think:
- If u had to ask this u must be very young / fresh frm school
- I no longer submit to management..its just a waste of time. If they want to get involved, they have to be there all the way, from beginning till the end. No one gets a free ride, not even management.
- Submit early is better than late
- Depends on ur pay la dude. If u are earning 20k salary, even last min amendments also do until 1 min before deadline. If u are earning 6k megere salary, 10 days before dealine also no amendments la.
- And u got the cheek and ego to say smart or lazy, basic principles also dont understand. U still think u are worth to use the word smart?
