10 Worst Habits of Productive Employees

2005-11-06 1 min read Site Updates Marco

You know how it feels when you are trying really hard, but it somehow never seems to matter much? When you feel like your manager doesn’t see what you are doing, when you are not getting credit for all the hard work?

What do you know, it’s been quiet on here for a while.

That meant that a lot of the things I rely on to provide additional functionality wouldn’t work anymore. Plus, the old software would eventually not be updated any longer, making this site a potential security risk.
