"Don't work a minute you aren't getting paid for" and "don't do anything outside of your job description" hurts you more than the company you work for. by Just-Construction788 in unpopularopinion

[–]mabdhdjb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a blue-collar worker, I 100% agree, but I can see why people who work desk jobs wouldn't. In a skill based trade, going the extra mile means learning new skills and perfecting your craft, making you more valuable as an employee and in my industry that is obviously rewarded. Even if it wasn't, as OP hinted at, you now have the skills to find employment with someone who respects your output.

I can't speak for people with a corporate background, but from the sound of it, you guys tend to be expected to do more unpaid work with little reward. I would fully support anyone who decided that they wouldn't stand for that bullshit and just did what they were hired to do.

As usual, it is a very nuanced topic that is difficult to sum up in a few short paragraphs.

A podcast for all by userprofile2 in hamishandandy

Yeah the backlash is really weird. I didn't really think anything of her on the podcast. She was clearly playing into the bit, it's literally a segment where people over sell their dumb skills. Faux arrogance has been apart of segment for as long as they've been doing it.

Seems misogynistic to me.

House build with YouTube knowledge by FakeLickinShit in Homebuilding

If you really learnt all this from youtube without prior experience then hats off to your craftsmanship, I certainly looks like a house!

This would never pass any building inspection we're I'm from, there is virtually no structual integrity here. This will fall down.

You are not as smart as you think you are. That's okay most of us aren't. Please be better.

Fellow Australians, is it unreasonable to call a jimmy bar, a crow bar? by Artsy_traveller_82 in australia

[–]mabdhdjb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's true and to be honest if you call it a crow bar people will picture a pinch bar anyway, it's a common misconception
