I'll take it.

No, I'm more than happy to.

When a manager or someone that is senior to you gives you something to do.

And honestly, like I said, deep down within me,

I'm a farm dog.

Like I love work.

I love, love, love work.

And so I remember when I was working my nine to five job, if someone had like an extra patient or an extra workload or like things that they had to submit, I would always put my hand up to do it.

And even like when I was younger and there was just like a little admin task to do in my retail jobs or my job when I worked at a petrol station, like I was always happy to do it because you grow up being told a

especially if you come from a South Asian background or in broadly speaking, like an Asian background, you get told that if you work hard and you say yes, and you're just like a yes woman, that you will get ahead because people recognize hard work.

first lie I got told growing up, because at the end of the day, your colleagues don't, they're not going back to like, they're just going, wow, Sim is like, Sim's like a really good person.

Like, no, they're like, oh my God.

Okay.

Good to know.

Sim can handle it.

The next time I have more work, I'll just give it to Sim.

And how many times have you found that you are rewarded with more piles of work if you get work done efficiently?

efficiently and by the way this isn't like more piles of work with like a salary bump this is like oh like sim's just really efficient let's just give him more of it and more of it and more of it and the more you take on favors of doing other people's work which like you know with a caveat you're not going to be like an asshole that's like sorry sim said that i cannot do this so like thank you for this extra bit of work to do but i'm going to politely hand that back like

like there's a give and take.

Sometimes you help a friend out, you help a colleague out.
