Underperform but be nice and hope for a promotion
Always tell managers what they wanna hear, even when it's bullshit
The image says not viewable in my region! Please be my eyes
Image of Scotty from Star Trek. Caption is saying "Starfleet captains are like children. They want everything right now and they want it their way. But the secret is only to give them what they need, not what they want."
Does cutting and pasting work?
Presumably gotta be a different host. Our instance blocking the UK maybe? Cuz laws
For @LadyButterfly@reddthat.com:

It's because it's Imgur falling foul of UK's silly online laws
Oh only checked source of the second comment, never expected Imgur on the first! Thanks :)
Thank you very kind
It does thank you!
I'm very productive but never deliver too early. if i do something too fast i take my timw delivering.. I don't want people to expect much of me
I'm an independent contractor and I honestly don't have many of the issues I read in this thread. I'm my own boss, deadlines are prescribed by state law, things are pretty nice.
But one thing I don't do is deliver the work early. That's a laid service in my line of work; you want it sooner, I'll work nights and weekends to get it to you, and you'll pay me extra money. When you start giving work early, people start to expect it, and the same people will always ask for an extra day or two here and there.
