1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,280
Speaker 1: You want to make more money. Probably, I think everybody does.

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: It's a jewel show. Well, there are a few ways

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,560
Speaker 1: that you can get ahead at work, right, you get

4
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:11,320
Speaker 1: a promotion and make them realize that you're a valuable

5
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: asset to whatever company you work for. Ye, it's one

6
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 1: of email. It is a lot easier, unfortunately. Well, one

7
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: thing you can do is work hard and hopefully they'll

8
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,960
Speaker 1: notice the great work that you're doing and give your promotion.

9
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:28,160
Speaker 1: Probably won't happen, Or you can do what I've always done.

10
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 1: Plant drugs and another one of your co workers desks

11
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,199
Speaker 1: and then find it conveniently and call HR. Now that

12
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,959
Speaker 1: person's gone, no more competition, You get their job. That's

13
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: how you got so far. Yes, that's exactly how I

14
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: got so far. I got far by planting drugs on people.

15
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: But anyway, another way that you can get ahead is

16
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: just brag about yourself. Really, yeah, pretty much. A recent

17
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: survey asked employers for the top ways you can teach

18
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 1: your own horn at work without looking like a jerk.

19
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 1: Everybody knows that one person who is constantly being like,

20
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: look at all the cool stuff that I've done. Well,

21
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 1: apparently there's a way you can do it without seeming

22
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: like you're bragging. I doubt it, but okay. The first

23
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: thing on the list is accept compliments and be professional

24
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,639
Speaker 1: about it. So be humble, pretty much humble, but accept

25
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: the compliment. They say, it's no fun when people won't

26
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: accept a compliment. You know, you're like, hey, you did

27
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: a great job on that, and no I didn't. It

28
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: was terrible, right, I do that all the time. I

29
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 1: actually do find that annoying when people do so. They say,

30
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 1: don't dodge the compliment, just be gracious, say thank you,

31
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: and don't hog all of the credit. If other people

32
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 1: helped okay, yeah, if the person next to you, like

33
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 1: really helped out and you were just like, yeah, I

34
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,759
Speaker 1: did so. Yeah, I know people that. Yeah, I've had

35
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: that happened to me. Some people have taken credit from

36
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: my entire career actually and said they did everything that

37
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: I did. I was like, wow, I guess I didn't

38
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: do anything at all. Focus on the company's success, not

39
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: your own, it says, if you have to brag, make

40
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: it about how well the company's doing and how you've

41
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: helped make it happen. In other words, focus on the effect,

42
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: not the act itself. So instead of being like, I'm

43
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: the most amazing employee you guys have ever seen. Nice

44
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: to meet you. That's why you're an employee. You go, I, well, no,

45
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,959
Speaker 1: I guess you wouldn't say I the company's doing great

46
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: thanks to my hard work. It's still you bragging. I

47
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: don't think leaves that one out of it. Don't do

48
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: that one again. That's annoying though, because if you did

49
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 1: have a big role, it's just like, oh, yeah, the

50
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 1: company's doing great right by the way I helped, you

51
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: should be able to say it. This is a survey

52
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 1: of recent employers on the top ways you can toot

53
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: your own horn at work without sounding like a jerk.

54
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: Ask for feedback on something you know is good. Oh,

55
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: just basically set them up. Oh my god. It says,

56
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 1: when you're proud of something, check in with your boss

57
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: and ask them how you're doing so far on it,

58
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: like you just killed a report or something. Check that

59
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,639
Speaker 1: what do you think of that? Any feedback and they're like, no,

60
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 1: this is actually amazing, Oh my god, thank you. Yea. Yeah,

61
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: this is some good advice because people who actually get

62
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 1: promotions and go really far in their career are pretty

63
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: much brown rosers and the ones who deserve it really

64
00:02:58,440 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: don't say anything, and they just like never get from one.

65
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: So this is some good advice. It is really good advice. Actually,

66
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: you know what. I'm having something similar at home at

67
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: the moment. My grandma. The neighbor apparently told her that

68
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: I need to be like more helpful around the house,

69
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: and I was like yeah, and I was just like,

70
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: it's true. No, it isn't true. I do so much.

71
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 1: I just never say anything or like point it out

72
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: to people. How does your neighbor and know what you

73
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: don't like doing don't do? Because she was saying, I

74
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: need to be doing more in the yard and we're

75
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: grown and stuff. I will admit, it's like an acre

76
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: of land, so it is tough. Yeah, so you should

77
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,239
Speaker 1: pretty much be doing all of it, live there for free.

78
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: I forget I said anything. The neighbor has noticed. The

79
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: neighbor has come out and been like, hey, Betty, how

80
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: do you where's that grandson? Here is what's he? Is?

81
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: He helping out at all? He's downstairs right now playing

82
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: call of duty. He's doing what and that call of

83
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: the I don't know the call of the duty. Does

84
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: that have to like home repairs? Or something in there

85
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: helping you out those young kids. That sounds he's video

86
00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: he's video gaming right now. He's always video game. Oh way,

87
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: you're out here breaking your back and your grandson who

88
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: lives in your place for free as a video game.

89
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: And I don't think that's very should do more around

90
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: the house, betty, Oh, don't hold your breath. Oh boy.

91
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: The number one tip from employers on how to get

92
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 1: ahead at work without just bragging about yourself is compare

93
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: yourself to yourself. They say, so comparing yourself to others

94
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 1: can sound like bragging, So try comparing a recent accomplishment

95
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: of things you've done to things you've done in the past.

96
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: Right already, then that's a weird one to me. I

97
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: am self reflection. Yeah, I've always been bad at brown nosing.

98
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: I've hated it. They say things like, I'm a lot

99
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: better at that than I used to be. Humble, There

100
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: you go, humble, bragg just a little bit to your boss,

101
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: And that's how you can get ahead at work. All right.
