"Work smarter not harder" usually applies to single focused tasks. Being good at hard-working generally means being very good at multi-tasking rather than pushing yourself to work for 12 hours straight. I think good multi-tasking is one of the more useful skills you can have next to being a people person and often pays off in majority of fields. A "field" is different from a job where some have high expectations of revolving door employees and try to take advantage of your hard work.
over the years in my workplace I've noticed a lot of young people seem to think "work smarter not harder" means "do as little work as you can get away with"
and it just kind of bothers me
to be fair there has been a masive economical depression pushed on them that been built for generations so if they all figured ou that they get to colectively do nothing and still get paidf they kind of deserve to
there are 3 ways to make it worth >you care for your country and your job will somehow help it >you love your job >you love money(and will be paid extra for the extra work)
Otherwise you will have a miserable life.
As a veteran wage cuck I can confirm this. Do as little as possible for as much money as possible. The system will not reward you for being competent or industrious, only you can reward yourself for that.
as long as more work means more money
money is just a trap, you are never going to get enough to do something fun. All mney can do for you is geting you clothes with a different logo, a phone that needs to be replaced every year, a car with different numbers and a slightly bigger home in a different area and if you are lucky two weeks at rome which you will brag about for the rest of your days
uh yeah, saving through bonds and index funds is like insurance, you do it for safety and stability
welcome to the real world, resources are limited, socialism still don't work, public services constantly colapse even in first world countries
it's the ant and cricket, the winter is old age, those who do not save while is spring will starve
You have a bit of a point but holy shit you spend money like an absolute Black person
i try to spend as little as possible, i would say i spend a little under half what the average person my age spends
i dont own much but i own my appartment meaning i dont pay rent and my biggest hobby is cooking so my food budget is also pretty low, i figured the kind of things i want to do are so expensive thats just not happenning so i chose a frugal lifestyle instead, i get way more free ime than anyone else and thats a luxury ironically
the thing is I work in a hospital
so they ought to have known that it would be a job with a larger workload when applying
it's nots a slack a lack job
thats different and those people are in for a rude awakening once reality hits them, i wouldn be surprised if half of them quit during the next five years.
We are in peak slacker culture, the most popular show is the office which is a show about people killing time atr work when there is nothing else to do, i used to work at a restaurant and sometimes the place was empty bu i still had to pretend to work which like, how do i pretend to work in a kitchen when there is nothing to cook?
Yeah we are lol
People getting their first jobs are completely unwilling to do anything, companies are raising their age range for hiring to 50 for the first time since they would rather hire a 50 year old man than someone fresh out of college who expects jobs to give them an extra week on their deadlines due to mental health

As for the being incompetent I have watched people disconnect from work capacitation zoom meetings because it was time for lunch or just not show up because it was a long weekend or ask for next meeting to be later because ten am was too early
As a veteran wage cuck I can confirm this. Do as little as possible for as much money as possible. The system will not reward you for being competent or industrious, only you can reward yourself for that.
let's be real if you got a job where the ammount you produce give you no extra money nor makes you more likely to be hired by other companies or promoted and the only reason why you work hard is because your superiors will fire you if they find out, you found yourself in a trap
Yes and No.
Being willing to work hard as much as you can is a good mindset to have but there's a difference between being willing to work through any laziness or apathy and running into a wall hoping people will recognize what you're doing/the simple effort ensures results. Mike's problem was he just sadly wasn't right for his dream I mean it's fricking dumb because Mike would be fricking horrifying in real life and he was pretty fricking creepy in some of his scare scenes. The Monsters bias against him was pretty unfounded
So it's good to work hard, but also having the ability to recognize if and why something isn't getting results.
>Mike's problem was he just sadly wasn't right for his dream
Mike's problem is that he wanted to roar, but wasn't good at it. Even when facing actual kids in the camp cabin, he went for the roar and it fizzled.
Look at Squishy. Dude freaked kids out by being silent and creepy and he's arguably even less threatening than Mike in appearance.
it's about knowing in what to work really hard. As might as he tried, Mike would have never ever been a good enough scarer.
as says, he also just couldnt see beyond the roar, even when coaching Sulley he never makes him do anything beyond jumpscare and roar. Kinda interesting that Sulley in college did a bit slow build up with the dummy when he wa son his own
This movie had a great moral story. Even if you work the hardest and do everything right, sometimes you just can't do it. But there are other things you can achieve. It's like if a midget tried to become a pro basketball player, it's just not going to work.
>This movie had a great moral story.
Not really, Incredibles and Megamind both had better conclusions of doing what you want even if you suck or can't be highly sucessful. Mike still ended up in a low wage job that he hates.
You haven't watched enough anime. Tons of them have more straightforward predestination where, say, if the MC is able to do something special and phenomenal it was already in their blood.
There was a letter from a mangaka who died floating around a couple years ago. He never got anywhere near the top 100 yet he wrote the most wholesome and positive thing ever as his final message, I wish I kept that thing saved
>anime
Even shitty anime got better examples, Rock Lee had to accept his limitations but he still got a bright future ahead through hard work unlike Mike.
Rock Lee point is really straightfoward, people got their own talents, don't beat yourself at being bad at something even if that thing is popular, try to find your own strenght instead and polish it.
Naruto point...I guess there ins't any lol. He's just rule of cool incarnate, prophet, demigod, cursed messiah, heir of royalty...

Might be a bit more than that as Rock Lee it wasn't just that he sucked at that but flat out couldn't do it. He was a pseudo cripple in the ninja world as he couldn't do ninja magic. He did embody the original message of hard work being able to go up against talent. Dude got Cinemaphile and clowned on class prodigy pretty boy Sasuke like it was nothing. Then things spiraled with all the other magic eyes and ninja alien shit
I feel like people really miss the point of characters like these ontop of misatributing why the MCs went to shit.
Technically he got his own show

rock lee is the most featured character in filler other than naruto and its implied that pre timeskip lee and naruto train together, hell lee is the reason naruto starts training daily so even tho he didnt get that much screen time during the war he is still responsible for how naruto ended up
pre timeskip rock lee was great, but for some reason post timeskip turned him into a background character, Guy punching Madara scene should be Rock Lee instead as well

Guy and Lee should have just flat out killed Madara.
Treat college less like a place to get good grades and a degree and more of a place to make connections since someone there must have an uncle who works somewhere
Either that or suck up to your professor as hard as you can and try to get an assistant position
The reason why this is bullshit is because so much of college, especially in the first couple years, is just bullshit that has nothing to do with the work you are going to do after you graduate and is only there so you have to waste more time and pay more money
And it actually works against your best interest since those professors know they are teaching bullshit and tend to be more lenient and give extensions and pass people who don't deserve to pass and they grade you on papers you get to write being cozy at home and not on a test that actually measures if you learnt the content or not setting up a bad example
Why did Pixar think it was important to make a movie where the message is that you're not special and you should just accept a life of propping up special people?
yes
>he believes hard work will pay off
kek, its over for you
How dough?
There's a difference between effective and wasted effort, you lazy gay

Subjective as frick but these are trips of truth and a good baseline
No it's better to work at 60% but stay consistent.
Yes and No.

C'mon now

holy cow I forgot how fricking adorable mike is
Mikey is cute! CUTE!
Monsters Inc. is still my favorite Pixar film. No other film has gotten me choked up as hard. Good prequel though
This movie had a great moral story. Even if you work the hardest and do everything right, sometimes you just can't do it. But there are other things you can achieve. It's like if a midget tried to become a pro basketball player, it's just not going to work.
>This movie had a great moral story.
Not really, Incredibles and Megamind both had better conclusions of doing what you want even if you suck or can't be highly sucessful. Mike still ended up in a low wage job that he hates.
The first Rocky also had a great message about not achieving your dream but still finding new things to care about at the end of the day
He doesn't hate his job, are you kidding?
Mike loved his job he just hated the paper work.
He co runs monsters Inc did you not watch the fricking movie
but anime told me it's possible!
You haven't watched enough anime. Tons of them have more straightforward predestination where, say, if the MC is able to do something special and phenomenal it was already in their blood.
There was a letter from a mangaka who died floating around a couple years ago. He never got anywhere near the top 100 yet he wrote the most wholesome and positive thing ever as his final message, I wish I kept that thing saved
literally has nothing to do with what I said
It just reminded me of that you upright c**t

It really should have been about Rock Lee

Most shonen MCs are born special or get unrealistic power boosts to make them special.
They both become Scarers anyways so it proves the entire point of it's own movie wrong
There was no point to Monsters University, even the plotline of Sully being a nepobabby is dropped since he and Mike end up as friends
I love you
no
Technically no.
The only thing of worth is the end result, but hard work does often lead to a good result, though there are exceptions.
Never
sorry mike
Work smarter, not harder
No, it's literally just a form of brainwashing so the rich will get richer.
no
Only if you are smart about it or know how to leverage it. If you believe in hard word only in itself, you end up poor forever
Everybody forget that these monster girls are the reason why Monsters University is the better movie
whhoa
I’m a college student. How screwed am I?
>college

Either that or suck up to your professor as hard as you can and try to get an assistant position
Only good for potential networking (which rarely work) and the paper to give you a slightly better shot at job.

You didn't file your paperwork last night
And the grand lesson is?
Nepotism works.
it is a little subjective.
Sometimes your hard work will pay off if it is somethin that will truly benefit you, some times it is just wasted effort.
Why did Pixar think it was important to make a movie where the message is that you're not special and you should just accept a life of propping up special people?
ayo why he only got one eye?
Do you all really work real hard to get where you at?
not all of us, some just get lucky
