How do you make yourself INVALUABLE to your workplace?
1. Be the first person to show up (preferably not in your pajamas with a toothbrush in hand )
2. Work all the time when you’re supposed to (preferably on “work related” stuff)
3. Get the work done efficiently, effectively and accurately
4. Beat your deadlines by a mile (or three)
5. Ask for more work and more responsibility (from your boss, not your neighbor)
6. Attend every relevant Company training program available (pertaining to “your company” that is)
7. Attend Seminars and Courses to improve your work-related skills
8. Be the nicest and most helpful person around and always greet people with a smile (even when you’re thinking up 101 ways to kill them “softly”)
9. Never complain about anyone or anything, even if somebody “accidentally” pushed you down the stairs or poisoned your Coffee. This warm and fuzzy attitude works wonders in all other areas of your life too.
10. Dress professionally and a cut above the “average bear”
11. Be the last person to leave the Building (ideally before they lock you inside)
12. Always take solutions and suggestions to your Boss and never the problems
These 12 steps not only help you retain your Employment with the Company for a long time, but it also puts in the running for the next possible promotion. Or the Presidential election.
