Read? Coasting Financial Independence / Barista FI – More Realistic, Attainable and Balance
When Uncle8888 read the above! Ha! Ha!
He has been there doing it for years before finally closed his 10 yrs planned KPI!
When our company is into Bell Curve performance appraisal i.e. someone has to be at the other end of the Bell Curve but it can be us willingly; our immediate boss may appreciate our contribution to "fair" bonus distribution in his/her team without any resentment from you! "Fair" compensation for a willing Coaster! Why not? LOL!
Read? Why Pursue Financial Freedom? (6)
Willing Coaster, Willing employer. Sounds like a good work arrangement. lol.
ReplyDeleteMy humble opinion. Job of the employer is to identify who are the ambitious go-getters, coasters and slackers.
- Promote the go-getters.
- Pay the coasters fairly according to what they put in.
- Sack the slackers.
Be thankful there are coasters. If everyone is ambitious and wants to get to the top, there will be too much politics in the workplace. No teamwork. Coasters have their use too. Haha.
Why pursue financial freedom?
ReplyDeleteAnd I thought its to get girls?
(In contrast to girls get guy to gain financial freedom?)
A rose by any other names is still a rose.
Instead of calling what I do - 15 hour work week - I can call it Barista FI now?
We like to pour old wine into new bottles - anything to make it more "hip" and flavour of the month ;)
Just you wait.
I'm sure when financial freedom/independence is over used and hackneyed one day, someone will come up with another sexier bottle!
LOL!
Lol! Not easy finding a company willing to accept coasters (tot the term was campers?) AND still pay well.
ReplyDeleteIn the old days when I was still working (Ok 13 yrs ago), that's usually GLCs & civil service. Not sure about now tho.
Wifey, who is in civil service, has seen more people being asked to go in recent years. And these are middle to senior mgmt level drawing 5 figures monthly. But still quite welfare lah ... 6 months to find another job (1 joker took 1 year). No immediate terminations like some private companies.
Probably only healthcare :P
