How do you guys feel about participation awards personally I feel like for kids it's a bunch of bullshit but I said adults we don't talk about the fact that the way people are getting paid as a participation award in itself because people get paid thousands of dollars for being mediocre OK how do you guys feel about that are you one of those people who knows you're not that good at your job and you get paid like as if you were an expert And if you're not and you're just on the outside looking in like me how do you feel about the generations to come do you think like this is going to help the self-esteem and boost overall morale or is it gonna hinder the future generations to come

Girl, this is a good question. It's definitely gonna hinder because, okay, even as a child, if everyone's getting applauded for something that they're barely making effort to do, no one's gonna want to do anything. Everything stays at a standstill and no one wants to reach out. There's very few who will reach out and do better.

On another point, I'm trying to think of jobs that people would actually want to do and that aren't in direct competition that would want to stay in the same lane as everybody else, getting paid the same. I mean, yeah, they might get good money, but it's not like, you know, they're gonna be loving their job, you know?

I don't think of that as a participation award so much as poor management and resource allocation. you should not be getting paid to do nothing.

As somebody who has worked in a child care setting, it is definitely way better to let everybody get the same thing than just one person getting an award. It's better for everybody. I think it's a flip. For kids, they should. adults it doesn't matter.

Thanks for kids it's worth it for everybody to know that they earn something everyone get something going on for adults not so much they are definitely kids it is beneficial

I agree with you 100% for kids. It's definitely BS.

Getting an award for participation is like getting paid for walking through a door.

When the kids are young, like kindergarten, Asian stuff, it's fine, like it does, it's fine, but as they get older, I'd have to say, Like eighth grade on, I'm a little, about it.

People get paid way too much money to be a meteor participation were the garbage it like ownership dealership in the flipside company need a reward and respect everybody does mean someone actually like put in the effort noon that doesn't happen

Am I mad that there's people out there that suck at their job and get paid more than I do? Yes, absolutely. But it's like, how the fuck do I do that? Like, how the fuck do I get paid while I'm not good at something, like as if I'm already an expert? You know, like...
