It is absolutely legitimate to prioritize your time. But never drilling a hole in reinforced concrete borders almost on the legendary electrician you call just to change light bulbs. Just as a side note: hammer drills are an invention for consumers who don't know any better. A man/woman of the world buys a cordless screwdriver and a separate rotary hammer plus high-quality drill bits.

That is an important part of relaxation, especially when the person affected is a manager in everyday life. Just "do" what the boss says - without your own planning responsibility. Hedge trimming without an Excel sheet - you wouldn’t believe what a challenge that is for some people - but also with the associated feeling of success as a reward.

Exactly. Stress is a quotient: if you set the "divisor" (= time factor) to a value near infinity or "doesn’t matter," no stress can arise.

In this case, my contribution was made at an explicit invitation - and could in no way have the tone "They are unjustly scolding you."

That sounds to my ears like moderation trainer gibberish. You can also be coached into burnout, that’s not so rare.

How is someone supposed to know that who is asked for a competing offer? – then better ask directly: that’s how much the colleague wants, is he a cheapskate or would you have to charge a similar amount?

You're right

And some people don't even notice stress... only when they collapse!

Between garden landscaping and pruning the rose, however, there is a small difference.
Besides the lack of talent and time for such extensive work, the necessary physical strength to work hard physically for weeks may also simply be missing.

And others are being talked out of extensive personal contributions here. Of all people, the robber is now supposed to do something like that? Interesting.

Anyone who can jog can also do manual labor


This is not about personal contribution, it is about personal relaxation. It doesn’t matter how little capital equivalent his "muscle mortgage" might weigh. If there is still work left after the personal contribution, the professional can do it - and be compensated without suspicion.

Where is your problem? I'll tell you: You are jealous.

Jealousy is a deadly sin.
