We all know the famous phrase “There’s no 'I' in Teamwork.” But many work tasks, teams, and even entire companies are run by a few key I's figures (a lot more than the slackers around them would like to admit). So, how do you see yourself in the workplace? Are you an I, someone who takes initiative and gets the job done, whether your coworkers are willing to put in the work or not, or are you a we, someone who is always waiting for another coworker to do their job for them, and happily slap their name upon the pile when the work is complete!?

Who do you think is the I vs the we is in this situation? We have a feeling you're spot on! With only two people in a team, we imagine it incredibly difficult for things to get ‘lost in translation’ as to when your fellow employee will be taking their PTO leave. That's why we are almost certain that it's not a coincidence that these two employees' leave dates repeatedly seem to align, with one employee always putting in her leave first! If we were their managers, it would be clear that the other employee's main intention would be to avoid as many extra responsibilities during that time as possible…that, or she's either just strangely obsessed with her coworker and cannot bear to spend a 9-5 without her!
