    I’ve seen unproductive people succeed simply because they show up early and leave late while doing less than average work. It’s all about appearances.

      Hard working unproductive people become in time hard working productive people. Lazy productive people become in time lazy unproductive people. Skill issue on your side tbh.

        Spending 50-100% more time doing something because you are slow/taking breaks/chatting is being unproductive.

        This has got to be one of the worst arguments I’ve seen in a while. Congratulations.

        Hey thanks for your assessment of my skill without knowing the first thing about me. Hard working is something else than just being in the office every day from 8 to 6.

        Please don’t question this merit-dualism. I need it as my moral compass in these ever-expanding, complicated, almost mystical realms of the markets.

        – Calvinism or liberalism or smth (I don’t know I’m not a priest)
