Hello, everyone.
This is Enta.
Our trip to Hokkaido is coming to an end.
It looks like we'll be able to finish the drilling this week.
Man, for a moment there I wasn't sure what was going to happen, but there were so many people who came to my aid.
I'm really grateful!
If we don't cherish the people who help us like this, the company has no future.
It's almost over, so I'm going to give it my all and stay focused!
Thank you.
But that's beside the point.
"What kind of person do you dislike?" That was a conversation I had the other day with the owner of the bar I went to.
Hmm...
I really dislike people who try to shirk responsibility.
What does it actually mean to take responsibility?
That's what I've heard.
But what happens when it comes to taking responsibility at work or on the job?
It's highly unlikely that you'll be fired or have your salary cut. (Depending on the extent of the damage, of course.)
As for what would happen to me, I’d probably just get a really stern scolding. (Probably.)
Everyone has their own way of taking responsibility, but if you're a company employee, it's usually not that big of a deal.
If this were a politician, they’d probably have to resign or something like that.
If you just look at the text,"Taking Responsibility"
That’s what it means. It means taking responsibility for criticism. (Politicians’ press conferences are a perfect example of this.)
However, the concept of taking responsibility at a company or on the job is extremely vague, and many people view it as a risk, but,
Actually, taking responsibility is pretty easy, isn't it? (It just means getting blamed. Though that's tough, too.)
Well, in a way, it's probably great for people who are total masochists... lol
You're overreacting to the vague term "responsibility." (It would be different if you were confident enough to decide for yourself how to take responsibility.)
But it’s nonsense to say you’ll take responsibility for everything when you don’t have the ability to do so!
And if you recover from it afterward, you won't get blamed all that much.
If we can recover and limit the damage even a little, that's fine as long as it works.
It's not a risk.
The important thing is to bounce back.That's it.
There's this senior who blames everything on the juniors.
Suppose you tell a junior colleague to do something, and then that colleague doesn't do it well and gets scolded by their boss.
So, that senior—who was trying to shirk responsibility—gave his junior a stern talking-to, saying, “That guy’s no good!”
It’s part of a senior’s job to train their juniors. A junior’s failure is a senior’s failure.
They shift the blame onto their junior colleagues and act as if they're not at fault.
"It was my mistake in raising him." That's what someone who takes responsibility would say.
There are people like that!
If you happen to be near someone like this, please get away. You won't be able to grow, you know?
You'll end up being the kind of person who does everything half-heartedly and takes it out on others.
You know the type, right? lol
If you take on more and more work without fearing risk and with the mindset that you might be held accountable, you’ll keep growing.
If you approach things with the mindset of “I’ll take full responsibility for everything!”, you can grow as much as you want. And you’ll be able to give it your all.
And I really like people like that!
I'd love to work with people like that. And we're actually looking for people like that lol
See you later.
