爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导

It interested Bok to listen to the talk of his fellow-workers during luncheon hours and at all other times outside of office hours. When the talk did turn on the business with which they were concerned, it consisted almost entirely of wages, and he soon found that, with scarcely an exception, every young man was terribly underpaid, and that his employer absolutely failed to appreciate his work. It was interesting, later, when Bok happened to get the angle of the employer, to discover that, invariably, these same lamenting young men were those who, from the employer's point of view, were either greatly overpaid or so entirely worthless as to be marked for early decapitation.

白话

午休时听同事聊天,博克发现只要话题转到工作,几乎全是在抱怨工资太低、老板不赏识自己。可后来他站到雇主的角度一看,发现这些整天哀叹的年轻人,在老板眼里要么工资已经给高了,要么根本没什么价值、随时可能被裁。这说明:只盯着“我该拿多少”容易让人陷入受害者心态,而看不到自己实际贡献了多少。与其抱怨报酬不公,不如先问自己:我做的事,在老板眼里值多少?

上下文

博克在自传中回忆自己从雇员视角转向雇主视角后,对职场抱怨的观察。

今日一问

我最近抱怨过报酬不公吗?如果站在老板角度,我的贡献值这个价吗?
