OK, here’s the issue…
Our department has come under fire for our perceived “slackness” This is mainly fuelled by people seeing us coming and going at non-standard hours (not knowing the real hours put in) and the fact that we all refuse to get stressed / angry when they are having problems. We are the normal bunch of guys who happen to love and enjoy our jobs, who get along well and even management conceed we are doing a great job.
The problem is how to fix the public PERCEPTION that we are not worth our pay etc. etc.
Any ideas???
