Razors Edge ★ Posted July 31, 2020 Share #5 Posted July 31, 2020 I spend a lot of my in-office time as a sounding board and a psychiatrist. Folks seem to just need to talk/vent/complain, and I'm a fairly impartial person & also don't repeat stuff. But, seriously, folks have some crazy things going on in their lives - usually of their own creation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisL Posted July 31, 2020 Share #14 Posted July 31, 2020 A lot but it’s all good. I get sucked into a lot of ancillary duties. My boss and my counterpart on the Facilities/Real Estate side are also non responsive so many people on our team who report up to them hit me up to vent or seek advice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheep_herder ★ Posted July 31, 2020 Share #15 Posted July 31, 2020 Not even something I thought about when working. I did what was needed to get the job done for myself, the station, and co-workers. We were all in it together, and a success was a success for all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a big "that is not my job description" kind of guy. Stocking the fridge in the breakroom pays the same as working on our quarterly audit for me. I am usually the first one in, but seldom the last to leave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerrySTL ★ Posted July 31, 2020 Share #28 Posted July 31, 2020 At one time when I was in the US Air Force, I had my primary job as an aircraft maintenance instructor plus 14 additional duties. I was running a 5 person detachment, yet we had to do nearly everything that a 500 person squadron would do. It was stupid so I just pencil whipped most of them or there really wasn't all that much to do for a particular additional duty such as key control. Yep had to know were each key for any door and locker was located. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
