Paying your dues

How long is to long to determine "Paying your dues.?" How hard do you have to work in order to give back. People who start families usually have considered thinking their options.

While working, do you find the repetitive work not compensating, and if you are not rewarded? While achieving that great repetitive goal that most companies endure. I am a person who like new challenges and growth. Having too "pay your dues" what is correctly defined in a person at a company? Is it all the rewards certificate? Is it the activities you participate at work? Communication with people?  Going to the ends of the earth for the company?

The only testing question, for yourself is... Will this be my ratification or security for "paying your dues?"

Over the years, my experience and communication with people have been a variance. I say variance because each outcome is different.  People do not have a clarity of understanding what is meant by paying your dues. To make things more understanding, I find that simple definition of "paying your dues" is someone who started their work from day one, and carried out their term of say 10 years. That is considered to be paying your dues. The person who has 10 plus years is considered the heart of the company.

I will give you an example, the WWE has a wrestler named "The Undertaker" this character has been holding the franchise for a long time.  The person who plays this character has to retire the name, and kill off his persona due to the sheer "paying your dues" looking over the years. This wrestler has been going along for the ride for years. There was times where "The Undertaker" disappeared and another person came along. "The American Badass" due to the character has been slowly dying out due to age, and strain of the body. As well, the persona had high expectations. "The Undertaker" has been an icon and legend to some. This persona has been fast, strong, and unbeatable. Over time like "Ghost-rider" from marvel has to come to an end, and find a new host. Which is why "The American Bad Ass" returned in 2020.  The persona of "The Undertaker" has died out and became well rested in our soul forever.

So, every workforce has their own legend in building the company or organization. People deserve to know where the realism behind "paying your dues" there are some companies that have a large turnover rate and causing the senior and older people to give them the speech. In order to be recognized you need to pay your dues. Considering that you just started in the company. You only be noticed after the humps and hurdles that is handed to you. If you decided to leave that company, for any reason due to that you cannot handle the humps or hurdles. Then the saying "paying your dues" does not happen or be recognized.

People tend to forget no matter how hard you try. You would never pay your dues so easily, for any company or organization you work for unless you are person of interest.

Just remind yourself, if you try and try hard. Anything is possible, but to pay your dues. You need to be at your best, and have continued employments in a consistent manner, and avoid all the humps, and hurdles that occur. Can be anything in the workplace. Trust me, coming from experience they will A) Get probational status over and over again or B) Getting laid off and never give you a fighting chance.

I hope someone reads this, and realize the facts in addition to my thoughts.

Mistry Man,
Never die alone, and only live once.
