10 Commandments Of Working For Others

Finally got the time to blog! I was quite damned with the sudden burst of workloads! I’m still trying to redeem myself from all the gloom and doom. Chause! I was actually attending seminars and training for the past weeks for my professional and personal development. Naks! Along with that, of course payday just came by; my entire world revolves around payroll and timekeeping. On the other hand, Hal Benito is sooo busy exploring the corporate world! Oh my! He must have been lost. Charaught! Never heard from him for the quite some time. You sure do miss him :)

As mentioned, I attended a seminar last week. It is the “Free Learning Sessions” by Ariva Events. It was a 1-day learning session which discusses Company Policy and Labor Laws; facilitated by Atty. Ranulfo P. Payos. It costs around P1116 for both AM and PM sessions which cover snacks and certificates. Sponsored by the company of course! :)

I will not be giving a rundown of what had happened throughout the seminar, I would just want to share this little note instead. I found this inside the loot bag I got during the seminar. It is “The 10 Commandments of Working for Others”

THE 10 COMMANDMENTS OF WORKING FOR OTHERS:

1. DON'T LIE. It's a waste of time. I'm sure to catch you in the end and that's the wrong end.

2. WATCH YOUR WORK, NOT THE CLOCK. A long days work makes a long day short, and a short days work makes my face long.

3. GIVE ME MORE THAN I EXPECT AND I'LL GIVE YOU MORE THAN YOU EXPECT. I can afford to increase your pay only if you increase my profits.

4. YOU OWE SO MUCH TO YOURSELF THAT YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO OWE ANYBODY ELSE. Keep out of debt or keep out of my shop.

5. DISHONESTY IS NEVER AN ACCIDENT.  Good men and women never see temptation when they meet it.

6. MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS and in time you'll have your own business to mind.

7. DON'T DO ANYTHING TO HURT YOUR SELF-RESPECT. An employee who is willing to steal for me is willing to steal from me.

8. IT IS NOT MY BUSINESS WHAT YOU DO AT NIGHT UNLESS IT AFFECTS YOUR PRODUCTIVITY DURING THE DAY! If you do only half as much as I expect you'll last half as long as you hope.

9. DON'T TELL ME WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR. Tell me instead what I need to hear.

10. DON'T KICK IF I KICK. If you're worth correcting. it's because you're worth keeping.
