I came to this job to avoid that. All I want to do is to go to work, do my job, and go home without a worry in the world. I don't want to have to worry about putting extra time in, doing work from home, or making up work just to look busy/innovative all to get ahead. I leave that up to the folks at corporate headquarters at my company.
Couldn’t agree more. The guys who complain about the seniority system, and want everything to be merit based have never had a job outside of flying.
