Find The Line Between 'Pride In Your Work' And 'You're Being Exploited'
-
The trick, the experts say, is not to care so much about your job. You have to set priorities, and some of them, they tell us, should be things outside the office, things that make us happy. Your employer, however, may not agree, but employers as a rule want you to be available 24/7 and, whatever lip service they give you about their desire to see you being happy and balanced, they don't care if you're stressed and burned out, because they'll just replace you. Or is that too cynical? Anyway, the topic is how you balance work and not-work, and whether you devote too much time and effort to your employer. (Wall Street Journal)
