When you clock in tomorrow, remember this: you probably aren’t Charlie Sheen. You’re not getting paid to show up late, say wild things, and still get a standing ovation. But you are getting paid to do your job, and that’s okay.
Next time you feel underappreciated, take a deep breath. Think about the guy who cried about having “only” $100 million in the bank. Then, go make yourself a coffee. And maybe, just maybe, ask for a tiny raise. Just don’t threaten to set the break room on fire. That’s a Charlie move.
