Two guys I worked with gave me odd advice. One said that if you showed you couldn't do an unpleasant job, the boss would assign it to someone else. The other guy was always being asked to solve computer problems. This was before the days of a dedicated IT department. His advice was, "Solve their problem, but don't explain how you did it. That way, they'll continue to need you." I didn't take either bit of advice.

When I was in the Navy I was asked to paint some bulkheads. But when I did there were runs all over the bulkhead which got me into a little bit of trouble. But whenever they asked me to paint again, I would remind them of what had happened before, and I always got out of the job. But that was just luck. I wouldn't recommend it either.
