Have you ever had that sudden surge "Oh no I don't feel like doing that!" attitude? You didn't want to do anything! Not even lay down on your bed and do anything! Not even move a step to the kitchen or sofa to eat or watch TV. Not even get up to go to work!
Wikipedia describes Laziness (also called indolence) as a disinclination to activity or exertion despite having the ability to do so. It is often used as a pejorative; related terms for a person seen to be lazy include couch potato, slacker, and bludger.
This is one of the examples that Wikipedia inserted on its definition for laziness.
"It is common for animals (even those like hummingbirds that have high energy needs) to forage for food until satiated, and then spend most of their time doing nothing, or at least nothing in particular. They seek to "satisfy" their needs rather than obtaining an optimal diet or habitat. Even diurnal animals, which have a limited amount of daylight in which to accomplish their tasks, follow this pattern. Social activity comes in a distant third to eating and resting for foraging animals. When more time must be spent foraging, animals are more likely to sacrifice time spent on aggressive behavior than time spent resting. Extremely efficient predators have more free time and thus often appear more lazy than relatively inept predators that have little free time. Beetles likewise seem to forage lazily due to a lack of foraging competitors.On the other hand, some animals, such as pigeons and rats, seem to prefer to respond for food rather than eat equally available "free food" in some conditions."
Wow! see Even animals get lazy and need to spend time doing nothing to make up for all the hard work that they did hunting and running away from predators. Well as humans we also need to spend time doing nothing after 9 hours of hard work 5 days a week (That's for some of us working office hours). How about those people who work more than 10 hours a day? 7 days a week? OMG! They need a life! Maybe reading up to this point you might agree that I am making sense right?
To tell you the truth I am feeling really lazy now. I feel lazy to the point that I don't want to do anything at all. I don't know what is causing this laziness.
From what I read through blogs and articles, symptoms for laziness are:
* Depression
* Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
* Schizophrenia
From what I read, I think my job is depressing, tiring and it makes me sick. I used to love my job until things started to change, rules, policies, the people, the management. Everything started to change. As time went by I didn't even know if what I was doing was the right thing or not. I hear things from a lot of other colleagues, things I didn't want to hear. I totally ignored it and told myself that that's just another company thing. All companies will have their ups and downs and their political issues. Then it happened to me. Pay deductions, held commission just because of one stupid call. Most of my friends left the company just because of that. I didn't care because at that point I still can cope with the fact that I was working my ass off for nothing!
How stupid could I be. My sister resigned earlier this year and there was this thing that the company did that really pissed me off!. Everyone that worked in the company got their salary deducted for a so called "deposit" just in case they left the company with the head set and the access card. That so called "deposit" was supposed to be refunded if you tendered a proper resignation and gave the items back properly. Well for your information my sister gave the things in proper order sent in a resignation letter but got nothing back. They didn't even put anything regarding the so called "deposit" in the offer letter that all staff was supposed to sign. Tell me if that makes sense or not.
Most of my friends that have resigned from the company never got their so called "deposit" refunded back to them, some didn't even get their salary. They have made several reports to the relevant authority but the company still didn't take any action. Wow! they are powerful aren't they? Let's see how powerful they can get and how strong they are if more people put in complaints to the proper authority. One of my friends had his basic salary held just because of sick leave! Doesn't make sense at all! And until today he didn't get his salary yet! And just recently one of the other staff in another department called in sick and she was even hospitalized for 5 days but... you wont believe this. The management said that if she took 5 days of medical leave only 1 day would be paid and the rest would be unpaid leave. The poor girl came to work the next day even in a very sick condition. She reported to the proper authority too. I wonder how many reports do they want? I am so frustrated now! I feel like screaming!
At work we get scolding for something we didn't do, we get sweared at! and we get stupid things like oooo you need to reach this target, you need to reach that target. blah blah blah.... The targets weren't an issue to me but if we failed to reach the target please don't deduct the whole thing off just like that. People worked for that shit you know! we deserve to get paid for that.
Well the point is. I became lazy because of the demotivation the company gave me and i wrote everything in here it would take me ages to finish so this will be the end of my post. My next post will be... I am leaving on a jet plane... and I will never be back again!
hahahahahaha
