handing in on time

I wonder if you have experienced this kind of situation at work.

Your boss gives you a task early in the morning to be completed by the following morning. You being the efficient worker, completes the task by mid-day. Now you are at a crossroad. Do you (A) hand in the work immediately? Or do you (B) submit the work only the next morning?

Let's say you choose (A). Your boss takes a look at it and realizes that there are some mistakes, not by you though. He recognises that it is not your fault by any means, but still, you have to rectify it. So you rush through the rectification, working way past office hour and into the night. You manage to get it right by the following morning. Just nice.

Now, had you chosen (B), you submit the work the next morning, and the boss finds out about the mistakes way into the next phrase + other consequences. The project may get screwed up, but at least you went home on time the previous evening.

*shrug* Guess it's all about task ownership.

  • Well, i would most likely go with option A. Prefer to get it over and done with rather than keep dragging it until nxt morning and thinking about it, perhaps even after work...

  • if you just keep it nicely resting in the out tray, you don't have to think about it until the next day right? :P
