S2 Ep08 - Cigar Lighters with Performance Punishment


1 May 2023 - In this episode, the two hosts engage in a conversation about lighters, specifically cigar lighters. As they discuss the various types of lighters, they use different ones to light the cigars they are smoking on air. Austin and Dice both enjoy the same cigar for this episode, the Obrigado by American Viking Cigars. The word "Obrigado" is Portuguese for "Thank You." It was released as a token of appreciation to those who followed and subscribed online during the early days of the cigar business. This blend is a Nicaraguan Puro, with tobaccos grown, cured, fermented, and rolled in Nicaragua.

The hosts continue to explore the different lighting combinations available on the market. With so many types of lighters to choose from, the decision ultimately comes down to personal preference. Speaking of personal preference, the hosts delve into a work-related topic where top performers might find themselves in a situation where they receive more work than their colleagues as a reward for their excellence. They discuss the frustration of feeling punished instead of being recognized for their strengths. They emphasize the importance of leaders recognizing and distributing tasks and projects fairly. Additionally, they highlight the significance of individuals speaking up and communicating their frustrations, as this can help prevent burnout and maintain a healthy work-life balance.

The hosts also discuss the pitfalls of being a high performer within a group and the thought process behind receiving a heavier workload as a reward. They share leadership methods to avoid consistently tasking the same person with special projects.

Listeners are encouraged to share their experiences of being rewarded with more work due to their high performance or any related situations. You can reach out to them using the provided link or by sending a message on Instagram.
