A Bit Of A Psychology Question
7 Answers
Okay, here's the scenario: You've done something exceptionally well to do with your job, but outside of work on your day off, and the thing you did was potentially a danger to you, but you did it anyway in the name of your job. The end result of your actions was VERY positive. Your immediate superior at work has never actually thanked you or congratulated you for this, but you heard through the grapevine that your immediate superior has been saying what a great job you did, and no one else would have done that if they had been in your shoes. So why did the immediate superior not give YOU the praise to your face, but just tell everyone else?

Sound like the person is not confident of their position so goes the extra mile to show how their job is important to them and they appreciate the fact they are being employed .If they the person is not needed or is not thought as value for money they would be told .Could also be a bit of jealousy raising it head there buy the immediate superior so the whole thing could back fire on the person .Id advise them to put in for the overtime and any expense incurred to show the company that they are nobody's pushover either .
It's something to put down for discussion at your annual appraisal with your superior, then - but it sounds as if it's not something you should have done, anyway, if it was a considerable risk. You don't thank or congratulate someone who's contravened the rules, even if deep down you admire their guts for doing it.
