Why do some have more work than others?

As the saying goes in every organisation "No one man is indispensible"... or is it really the case? Bosses and the labour movement will outright say "NO". Of course that is the marco view of things. Let's be mirco on this and you will see what I mean.... Every individual is, to a certain extent, indispensible with his task. Well, first of all, why is it that some bosses prefer >--->>ing that particular someone majority of the time than others? For the sheer fact that he/she will always get work done, or is it the dynamics of the organisation rest upon that particular person that makes him/her indispensible a certain extent?

The fact that bosses know who their better performers are, in a way, makes them slightly indispensible, especially if the former don't want to hurt the dynamics of the organisation. So naturally, some of the workers in any given organisation are deemed as "MVPs" more than others.

Let us not talk about an organisation's turn-over rate... They should not be considered for this arguement. TRUE that people who are "MVPs" get disillusioned after a while given the amount of work they have to suck in day-in, day-out, so they look for greener pastures. Then the term "No One Is Indispensible" is proven correct.

So why is it some have more work than others? Why is it that some players in an organisation get paid, but don't pay back in kind, pushing their job to others to deal with them at every single opportunity? Nothing is fair but things have a way of working themselves out. That's my belief. You can dodge, but you can't dodge forever. The day of reckoning will come eventually and then there's no turning back.

Pity the poor suckers (like myself) who have to endure sucking in tasks that don't belong to them but have to attend to them for the good of the organisation. Don't get disheartened and hang in there!!! The truth will come to light eventually.... Hopefully soon enough for you...
