Different Work Ethics Co-workers can be classified according to their work ethics as lazy-bums, motor- mouths, or dedicated. The first type is the “lazy bums.” One time my lazy co-worker was on the phone talking to her friend. While I needed a break three people came to my desk. When asking her for help, she snapped her fingers and gave me the “wait a minute” sign. I was so mad, I was about to spit nails. Unable to take my break was not that big of deal, needing her help on the other hand was. The second kind is the “motor mouth.” These people on the phone for what seems to be hours, and is a very frustrating to me when I am are in need of help in the department. When the “motor-mouth walks in first thing in the morning, her desk phone starts ringing. I remember one time; I had counted thirty-five phone calls, each phone call lasting up to ten minutes. When I went to ask her a “work” question, she did not even acknowledge I was there. I stood there for what seemed like hours before she rudely said, “Can you hang on? This chick is at my desk.” One day she was asked if she had completed a certain task by the deadline. Knowing that she did not even start it, she scrambled for someone to help her. No one in our department wanted to help due to her rarely lending a hand to us. The last category would be the”dedicated.” My co-worker who works closely with me is very dedicated to her job. She is always there to help me out. When given a task, she follows through with it, gets the job done correctly and in a timely manner. I can almost always count on her to be there in any situation. One day, she was very ill and was not going to make in into work. Ill as she was, I had a big project that day; she came into the office just to help me out. Having a co-worker that is dedicated in her job really makes it easier for me.
