Motivation flagging

[KentPhilip]

Permies have bonus and promotion to chase.

And you need to MTFU, obviously.

And as barrydidit said "MTFU"

So man the f**k up it is then

Following on from this, is it really the case that the prospect of a few £k's in bonus is successful in motivating people to work hard all day every day?
The guy who gave me a telling off has told me that he's not interested in promotion to manager, which would be his next step. He is also financially very secure, although he doesn't see this. So what drives him and others of his ilk, and should I (or we) try to learn from him.

I need the workplace equivalent of Viagra, perhaps?
Or an explanation of why it isn't happening for me

If eye candy is your thing, this place has it in abundance it's ridiculous how many attractive women work here.
