Just realized my coworker's "don't volunteer for extra tasks" advice kept him at the same pay for 3 years
I sat next to Dave in our Monday standup when he laughed at me for taking on the inventory project nobody wanted. He told me it was free labor for a company that wouldn't notice. Six weeks later I got pulled into a meeting about a $4,000 raise while he's still doing the same tickets he was doing when I started. I get that not every extra task pays off, but how do you tell the difference between busywork and a real chance before you say yes?

Guess it depends if the boss actually sees you doing it.
