Like long hours?

["ASUE Tekwrytr" <tekwrytr -at- hotmail -dot- com>]

While the concept of working long hours because you want to being different 
than working long hours because you have to is interesting, I don't believe 
it. Routinely working long hours is most often considered "career-enhancing 
behavior," and if you do it by choice, good for you. While it may enhance 
your career, it often has the effect of harming the careers of those who are 
perceived to be "less motivated" than you are.

Not a reality, just a perception. My personal experience has been that long 
hours are rarely productive, other than creating the perception with 
management that the individual putting in the long hours is more dedicated. 
Such behavior is useful to that end, but not often toward overall 
productivity.

As a manager, I am far more impressed with people who get the work done in a 
normal span of time, rather than trying to convince me what hard workers 
they are by putting in so much time I feel like charging them rent.
