I was reprimanded for leaving work.. on time ?? Pinatawag ako kasi daw napansin nila na umaalis ako after 8 hours. Gusto raw nila makita na leaders go the extra mile Grabe on time na nga umalis may mali pa rin Kayo kailan kayo huling napressure kahit ginagawa n’yo naman trabaho n’yo nang maayos?

Grabe, ang unfair naman ng situation mo! On time ka na umalis, tapos may issue pa rin sila? Parang ang dami nilang gusto, di ba? Leaders nga raw dapat go the extra mile, pero sana maintindihan din nila na may buhay tayo outside work, di pwedeng laging overtime.

Minsan din, napipilitan ako mag-stay late kahit wala naman masyadong ginagawa para lang ‘pakitang-tao’ sa management. Nakakafrustrate ‘yon, lalo na kung pagod ka na tapos walang recognition.

Leaving on time does not make you less of a leader. As long as the work is done, you can go home, unless they pay your extra.

May isang beses, na-pressure din ako kasi sabi nila dapat daw ‘wag ka agad umalis kahit tapos na yung trabaho mo kasi “leaders are expected to stay late para mag-guide.” Pero hello, may pamilya rin kami, may personal life rin! Hindi lahat ng oras sa trabaho pwedeng i-sacrifice.

Staying late at work sometimes also mean you’re inefficient that you can’t finish work on time. Also, working after office hours because of heavy workload may mean that you’re exploited to do work of more than 1 person.

Clocking out on time doesn't mean you're not committed or less of a leader. In fact, great leaders model healthy boundaries and help create a sustainable work culture for their team. Respecting your own time shows that you trust your systems, prioritize well, and lead by example, not by burnout. Work smarter, not harder.

Sa akin, minsan din akong napressure kahit ginagawa ko naman lahat ng kaya ko. Yung tipong parang kelangan palaging sobra sa expectations nila kahit okay naman yung trabaho mo. Nakakastress talaga, lalo na kung feeling mo hindi na-appreciate effort mo.

Grabe naman. Yung buhay natin nasa trabaho na ng 9 hrs. plus commute hours pa.
