What Kind Of Worker Are You?
Contributed by Dr. Larry Petton on Oct 15, 2019 (message contributor)
WHAT KIND OF WORKER ARE YOU? The way you work in your business is one of the greatest ways you witness either for the Lord or against Him. Don't be a half-hearted worker like these:
1. The Vanisher - The vanisher seems to go invisible at odd times without explanation.
2. The Victim - The victim is the work equivalent of the student who claims "the dog ate my homework" in school. There are hundreds of excuses for workers to call in late, and the victim knows them all.
3. The Procrastinator – puts everything off until the last minute.
4. The Delegator - The delegator is an interesting type of lazy person, primarily because he or she puts so much effort into avoiding work. Without even being in a supervisory position, the delegator constantly pushes work off on everyone else.
5. The Troublemaker - Perhaps the most dangerous worker is the troublemaker, who not only doesn’t work, but spends time stirring up drama throughout the office.
