I was originally watching an NBA game, but halfway through, my boss suddenly called and informed me that there was some urgent work that needed to be handled before Monday. I felt a bit frustrated at the time because I really didn't want to deal with work-related matters on the weekend, which is supposed to be a time for relaxation.
However, I ultimately took on the task since it was indeed important, and my boss seemed to understand that asking someone to work on their day off was not ideal. The attitude was reasonable, so I agreed to help. Of course, I know that if a boss with a bad attitude were to request my assistance, I would probably still accept the job, as refusing could be difficult given the hierarchical structure. Nevertheless, a sincere and polite request does make the situation more bearable.
Therefore, I genuinely hope that everyone in the workplace can maintain a positive attitude. Whether you want to do something or not, and whether you do it well or not, often has little to do with whether you express anger. There are tasks that need to be done, so it's better to approach them with a positive attitude. Dealing with a request in a bad mood may lead to an unpleasant atmosphere for everyone involved. A good attitude not only helps in resolving the boss's troubles but also allows me to complete the work without being surrounded by a complaining atmosphere, benefiting the entire team.
However, such a mindset is not common. Most of the bosses I've encountered tend to see themselves as important figures, often displaying an authoritative demeanor. In dealing with such individuals, I usually wait for an opportunity to strike back. If someone makes things difficult for me, I believe in giving it back. Interpersonal relationships are always a crucial aspect of the workplace, and the challenge of managing them never seems to end. |
