Always leave office on time?


那天朋友分享了這篇文章〜 我覺得挺有意思的。其實裡面的內容非常容易理解,而且也可以得到很多人的認同。可是,不知道為何我讀了這篇文章後,我覺得作者有點負面,有點懶,有點想找藉口不加班,想找可以不重視工作的理由。我個人認為很多東西是息息相關的。當然家人很重要,生活品質也很重要,可是工作也很重要。試想如果沒工作的話,你的生活品質可以提升嗎?如果天天為錢煩,跟家人是不是也會常吵架呢?我覺得做每一件事情應該都要找到平衡點啦〜〜人家給我錢,我也得做好自己的本分喔〜 我相信我們都是可以被replaced的。工作也給了我們學習的機會,我覺得應該還是要把握〜 除非我把工作當成工作而已,可有可無〜可以不在乎。

我覺得這篇文章如果可以換個角度寫,可以用陽光積極的方式呈現,就可以鼓勵很多人把所有方面都顧好。萬一有讀者誤會作者的意思,就有可能會把工作丟了〜 這樣也不對喔〜

大家一起甘把爹

我倒觉得文章写得很好噢,而且哪一点让你觉得作者很懒?不积极呢?它的重点在于打工族不要让加班成为一种习惯和常态,工作的时候全力以赴,放工了就要回归自己的生活和家庭,才会有平衡的生活。

重点在ALWAYS,不是不要加班,对吧?

Good thing that she didn't write this when i was in audit firm or else i would be so hurt T___T i left office late not because I was inefficient or incompetent. It's just that during work hour, i spent my time answering queries from clients, authorities, managers, auditors etc... sob sob

I don't agree or disagree with what the author said. I bet employers hate her article! haha..

In my opinion, leaving office on time is OK since we are paid to do until that hour. However, it's only fair that we also work for the number of hours we are paid for lo... which means no more long tea breaks, being late to office, taking time off during work hour for personal matters etc liao :S

Life is definitely not about office. we need a life too... The key is finding BALANCE in both. After all, too much of anything is always not good.

Anyway, this is not something new la... Some govt depts have practised this "always leave office on time" long ago.. leave on time but sometimes nowhere to be found T____T

Guess we all see things differently~ it's normal. I'm not saying the author is wrong but I think it's better to can be articulated in a better way. He makes me sad because i don't leave on time and that means I'm not hardworking~ and I'm told not to love my co because they may stop loving me.. Hmmm, if I apply that logic elsewhere, then I shouldn't love my boyfriend or hubby coz they might stop loving me one day~

I agree with jenn ler~ we just have to balance ourselves.. Give and take.. It's only fair~

After reading this article, it makes me feel imbalance that I have to take training for whole night, talk to my boss at night time, do conference calls at night time~~ haha..

I never leave office on time (coz I never reach office on time too).. haha..is it the reason I stay late in the office... my colleagues all have the same problem we never can leave office on time and work seem never can finish. Email keep coming... somemore we have confernce call at night or early in the morning at 6:30am. Training always schedule at night ...haha... I seem like throwing my negative thought here to complain my work life. Anyway as long as we can manage our time and not affect our owm personal time. So, no work durung weekend... :)

welcome my dear tracy~~ havent heard from you for ages.

No la, u are not being negative..if u are, u would be hating your job already. hahaha...i totally understand how u are managing between work and life.

In my previous job, i had to talk to my boss almost everynight coz he is based in US...and i get to office on time because i had to make sure my team didnt follow my bad example...but i enjoyed my work at that time coz i got lots of freedom during the day...and my boss respected my time that he wouldnt force me to call him on fri night and Monday and during weekends and holiday.

I agree with you..as long as we can manage ourselves mentally, learn to give and take and doesnt affect my personal life, i'm all good :)
