I don't care about awards or medals or any kind of recognition for what I do. I just want to do my job and be left the fuck alone.

Mostly because early on in my career I was told "You don't get awards for doing your job" when we were all busting our ass going above and beyond doing extra shit and working overtime in order to not just make mission happen but to make life easier for the people we were supporting.

But the same mother fucker that had that attitude would give people awards for pulling string and going boom, literally their fucking job.

I'm not salty.

I like being recognized with awards, especially if those awards carry monetary bonuses. Even if they do not, as long as it is a genuine reward and not a participation trophy, it can only help your career as you will get promoted faster.

It's nice, but I'd rather have an actual monetary incentive / benefit.

In my current job, as an example, I'm one of only two people in the company that does my exact job - and the other guy isn't usually even awake, let alone ready to work each morning, despite him starting his shift at the same time as me.

Like, I don't need a plaque or something telling me I'm employee of the month, but I'd like to get something out of it, otherwise, I might as well just start being late and never doing my job.

More or less this. I care about the ones that have a tangible benefit.
