The Corridor Whispers🗣️

Another month has passed, everyone; time is truly racing by! Today, I want to discuss "The corridor whispers🗣️". Indeed, I will be critical as usual!👿

Clients Requesting Too Much🥴

Image
Who's ready for summer holidays??!!🌞 Today's discussion revolves around 'Clients requesting too much🥴'. Whether you are a consultant, freelancer, or employee, interacting with clients is an inevitable part of the job. Let me begin by pointing out two distinct types of clients: Those who believe they are paying for your time, yet what they truly consume is your peace of mind. Those who expect a high-end service for a minimal budget, and also demand unlimited revisions. I get it; when you purchase something, you want to maximise its value. But where have the core values disappeared to?!😔 RESPECT - TRUST - ETHICS - COLLABORATION - APPRECIATION - SINCERITY, and so on. It seems these principles have vanished from the business landscape...

Employees Not Committed😪

Good morning, followers!  👋 How has your week been? If it has been tough, I hope this reading will enhance it before you shut your laptop. This Friday, I want to explore a trending topic: the lack of commitment among employees globally. What is causing this? 🤔

Holiday Planning 🌴

Image
Good morning everyone! It's Friday again! (Time really does fly...) With summer approaching, I want to discuss holiday planning today!🌴🌊⛺️🗻 Let's kick things off with some statistics: Recent surveys indicate that up to 65% of employees have had to alter their holiday plans due to a coworker booking the same days off! In countries like France and Germany, it's typical to arrange summer vacations 6–12 months ahead, with some even closing entire departments in August. A global survey revealed that employees in India, Brazil, and Australia are more inclined to negotiate extended leave, while U.S. workers often feel guilty about requesting more than a week! A 2023 study showed that 38% of employees experience feelings of being 'left out' or stressed when too many colleagues are on holiday simultaneously—effective planning can alleviate this. (Indeed, FOMO can occur in the workplace too - Fear Of Missing Out)

Bad Recruiters VS Good Recruiters🔎

Image
Hello, fellow working pals. How are you? Did you celebrate Labour Day? I'd like to pinpoint the source of the recent bad social media posts against Recruiters.😈 No, I am joking; I am not that horrible... I was a Recruiter in the past, therefore I wanted to explain a few points about their defence. But for the time being, allow me to continue my irreverent writing and reveal some of the most horrifying things they can do.

Redundancy✂️

Image
Hello guys! Ready for next week's long break?  Who's ready for the next job??  The unfortunate truth about redundancy is that it frequently affects people who have done nothing wrong. 😥 Many hard-working and dedicated people lose their jobs not due to bad performance, but due to firm restructuring, automation, outsourcing, or financial difficulties.  It can feel terribly unfair, as if you've been let go for reasons beyond your control; even if it's entirely a business decision, getting laid off can feel like a personal rejection, as if you weren't worth keeping. Years of loyalty can be erased in an instant through redundancy; people who've spent decades of their lives with a firm can be let go with little more than a severance letter...📨 Furthermore, it has an impact on more than simply income; it can rob people of regularity, purpose, social ties, and confidence, leaving them feeling lonely and ungrounded. Worse, it can happen unexpectedly. People can ...

Company Parking 🏎️

Image
Hello guys! How was your week? Mine was quite intense, I'd say, but it's normal, I guess? Everyone is rushing before Easter break🐣 This Friday, I want to talk about the Company Parking lots and all the funny or sometimes stressful situations they can create: The “CEO Spot” Myth: At some companies, the CEO's parking spot is purposely placed far from the building to set a good example of humility and to encourage walking...  Commen t: Now name 3 companies where you saw that!! 😅   Speed Bumps Born from Productivity: Some company lots had to add speed bumps because employees were drag racing at the end of the day to beat traffic! Comment : Yes, I admit it, I was one of them... 🙄 Painted Personality: Some creative companies let employees custom-paint their parking spots , turning asphalt into an art gallery. Comment : Please tell me if you have ever seen one because I'd pay a ticket to visit this open-air museum! 🖼️ Parking Lot as a Status Symbol: In Silicon Valley, wher...
