7 Things Everyone In An Understaffed Office Knows Too Well
As an up-and-coming hub for innovative businesses and creative new ideas, Malta is a great place for young people to be a part of something new and different. But with new businesses comes new stresses over not having enough capital – ergo, less staff and more jobs for those who are currently employed there. Here are a few things everyone in an understaffed office knows to be true.
1. You’ve seemingly been blessed with more than 24 hours in a day
Seriously – lucky you. You can do all the work that was laid out for you, and more – because your boss has found out that you’ve secretly been hiding a lot of extra hours in the day.
2. You’re pro at dieting
Because you lose at least one meal a day trying to keep up with the workload.
3. You’re probably a lot more qualified than you thought
Did you apply for a job in content? That’s so great… but check out all the amazing opportunities you’re being offered (read: forced into) in marketing!
4. You know everyone in the office’s job very well
Because when they’re on leave, you’re the one who’s going to be doing it.
5. You don’t politely reject anything
“Would you like something from the cafeter-“
“-YES!”
“I’m making tea does anyone want so-“
“-Milk, two sugars”
6. You’ve perfected ‘the look’ when your boss says “who’s going to manage this?”
Because everyone knows it wasn’t a suggestion and you were literally hand-picked as the only one to do the job.
7. You rage every time you’re hit with a “I’m so bored at work” text
Can I send you over some of mine?
