WORK, COWORKERS, COOPERATION, ACCOMPLISHMENT
I’m too old to fight over little things. You win! I don’t care. You do it. I have nothing to add. I have nothing to prove to you or myself. Give me something menial that no one else wants to do. Give me something to do that I don’t have to fight over. Most things aren’t worth fighting over, but there are people who want to fight over everything. There is no task more difficult than the fight that ensues over how to get it done and who should do it. The politics of getting things done is more daunting than the doing. It is the relationships, rather than the work, that challenge us most in the workplace. That’s why cooperation has always been at the top of my list of workplace values. If coworkers cooperate with each other, it improves the quality of their work and their enjoyment of it.
