McRainy Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Flicking rubber bands. I can hit pretty much anything within range, and was my school champion for 1976 and 1977. I can also lob screwed up paper into a bin from just about anywhere in a room without even looking; it's like a sixth sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 42 minutes ago, sage said: What do you do and in what way do you excel? That's a hard question to answer without getting bogged down in detail that wouldn't mean much to someone who doesn't do the same role, at the same company. The job is 90% repetition, but I'm always looking for ways to shave even 10ths of a second off the previous time the job took, through improvement in process or organisation, just because that pleases me personally. I have colleagues who've told me in the past to slow down, because the boss will start expecting the same effort everytime, but I don't buy that mindset, and I watch them deliberately slow down when put under the slightest pressure to produce, so they won't be asked again! I've never got that attitude, work brings its own rewards I find, do well by your employer and they'll tend to do right by you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
