Have you ever noticed how we humans tolerate all kinds of things on a daily basis?
Commute traffic, nosey neighbors, and crying babies on planes are just a few that come to mind. But if we weren’t able to tolerate these every day annoyances and acted out somehow, people would probably think we’re not playing with a full deck.
Maybe that’s why, all too often, in the business world, managers and supervisors tolerate mediocre employees as well.
