eli04how do you survive lazy coworkers?
You are letting yourself be exploited, look for a place that quickly notice your work culture and grand you a better pay / career.
Edit: how do I deal with it? I don’t really care what other do, thigs that don’t work are always on the higher ups, if my colleagues are having fun on the job, good for them!
Yeah, operating dangerously close to “work to rule” most days is a great way to minimize exploitation.
I don’t understand what you were trying to say.
Within any job, there is what your role is on paper, and what you actually do over the course of a work day. Often times what you actually do is much more than “expected”. Work to rule means that you stick explicitly to what your role is, and the way the company expects you to perform your duties. Or rather, what they expect on paper.
An example: Unionized employees will often “work to rule” as one of the first steps aimed at putting pressure on an employer to negotiate. It’s an entirely legal thing to do, and serves to exemplify the disconnect between on paper job expectations (what you are paid for), and real expectations.
