Workplace: I wish I dared to say no.

Workplace: I wish I dared to say no.

There has been lot of reshuffling in my workplace, mostly due to my colleagues moving to the greener pastures but there leaving left some gaps until it can be filled externally. Actually speaking , in some of the cases it is not as simple as "X" left and now replaced by "Y" because "X" who left is well trained in the system, process and able to work independently but for "Y", "Y" need to be trained and require help initially in many things before "Y" can properly fill the shoes of the "X"

If it is just a regular colleague, then it is still manageable and team mates do help in training and sharing the knowledge with the newly join teammate, but what if, if "X" is in some mid managerial or the team lead position? Now the case becomes more difficult. Not only you have to work with your team mates but also need to check on the other extra work that "X" was performing in the organization.

I can say that, I am in totally in agreement with the youtube short, I am sharing here. It is really a "Free Labor" that you are expected to perform in the name of "taking the initiative" or "being Proactive". I understand that one needs to be Proactive, innovative and require to be little flexible but on the other if my skill do not convert on more money and cause me to more overloaded with the work then I feel it rally make no sense to perform the extra duties.

This is one of the examples that I guess happened with all of us,

This is the one of the example but I guess if you start checking on the short videos(of earor @GPlusAnimation), I guess you might like other short videos shared in the youtube and they are vet spot on.

Hope you have liked the post and will be enjoying the video shorts

It's tough since it's a job we are doing for the paycheck. Adding in more work when it might not mean more money. Doing more work might mean that you are wiling to do that extra work without being compensated. It's rough to decide what is the right thing to do though.

It's become more difficult when they leverage their position to exploit. I always wish to make a side income source that I can live with it peacefully with no job. I do not plan to leave job but that side income might give me leverage to say "no" confidently.

!PIZZA !LOL

Whenever big companies CAN do it, they will DO it... As there is a big offer out there, they can "lure" you with promises, without paying for the additional job that you are doing... I heard a lot of stories similar to yours, and the loudest ones are the companies, complaining about how people are leaving their jobs... Of course, they leave when they are underpaid and nobody appreciates additional work... As in your example, other workers pay the price when a work colleague leaves... 😖

No idea why the whole corporate ignores such a simple thing.

Thanks for curation.

Logic would tell us that they would have to promote X before hiring Y for a higher position so that the adaptation is not so difficult. But unfortunately many companies prefer to look for talent outside rather than within the organization.

It is tough to live in that scenario as additional duties should have right compensations

Extra work with no extra compensation is kind of a sick.

Toxic, underpaid and double standards are few things that cause emplloyees to lose focus.
