1. Absenteeism / Tardiness
- Be at work whenever you possibly can.
- Arrive at work a few minutes before the time you are schedules to begin working.
2. Criticism
- If you receive criticism, do not take it personally, blame anyone else, make excuses, or be defensive.
- As difficult as it may be, thank the person who provided helpful criticism, even if you are feeling defensive about it.
3. Messiness
- Keep yourself personally neat: hair combed, shirt tucked in, shoes polished and clothes pressed.
- Messiness communicates lack of caring.
4. Obscene Language
- Avoid obscene language or behaviour, an obscene word or act.
- Obscenity will do nothing to advance your career.
5. Personal Calls
- Limit private phone calls to only the most urgent
6. Personal Problems
- Keep personal problems at home. Even when your co-workers are your friends, keep discussion of personal matters out of the office; you can share them outside without alerting the entire staff.
7. Privacy
- Respect other’s privacy by not eavesdropping on their conversations or reading things on their desks.
- eavesdropping – to listen to what is not meant for one’s own ears, without letting oneself be seen.
8. Reprimands
- Never correct or reprimand someone in front of others.
9. Temper
- Do not lose yours. Walk away, count 10, breathe deeply, and do not give in to temper. If you do, apologize immediately.
- If someone else does, in front of you, excuse yourself and go elsewhere to avoid unnecessary confrontation.
10. Wasting Time
- Be at your work and if you have nothing to do, perhaps you can help someone else.
- Phone conversations are not the only way to waste time. Wandering around, and talking to fellow workers area equally popular.
Remember:
Job satisfaction is a function not only of how much a person receives from the job situation, but also of where he stands with respect to his level of aspiration.
