There are people who work according to logic and there are those who don't. Those who defy logic can be either genius or stupidest of all. Geniuses are people whose logic is so deep that others can not fathom it. Idiots are people who are so illogical that nothing they do make sense. Unfortunately, since deeper thinking takes effort to cultivate, it is only logical to think and statistically known that idiots are more numerous than the logical one.
I have seen at work and in personal life a lot of people who work according to no logic. They never know why they are living and doing what they are doing. For example at work, I have a person who tries to evade work. I can not understand what could be logic behind evading work. We are in a remote area, so it is not like we can do much after work. Not doing work means not going to next skill level faster or learning new skill. So if the company goes bankrupt, a real possibility in today's bad economy, poor skills will come to haunt badly. Everyone in the team can very easily see that the person is not making the effort which does not help making good relationships because other team members have to bear the extra workload.
As a person responsible to get work done, it presents are tricky situation for me. I can not make logic to the person and expect to get the work done. If I have a choice, I can ignore the person. But if I don't have that choice, what is my way out?
I have thought about it and come to the conclusion that at least I do not need to appease person's habits. I have an inkling that the person respond to authority. So now I will not ask the person about the weather or family or other personal things trying to make a conversation. This will make him see that I am interested in getting the work done and do not give a shit about what he does. It will make it clear that the first priority at work is the current job itself and help him see that I am not happy with his behavior.
