Hardcore realism - I absolutely suck at laundry.
I could blame it on the whole “I’m building a business as a mother with three kids”. But the bottom line is, I simply don’t enjoy it.
Of course when in yachting, I was very good at turning over laundry, folding, ironing. And give me a fitted sheet and a rolling machine - I was in OCD heaven!
But ultimately, it was never my vibe. And I never felt passionate about it. My strengths were elsewhere. Plus on Amadeus we had a dedicated, absolute legend of a Laundry Master, who would have been horrified to think about any of us stews messing with his well oiled laundry room machine! 🤣
But it makes me think. Do we need to add a sliding scale within 'skills' which could indicate how proficient / dedicated crew are in each skill?
I can guarantee that all hiring managers are going to have a much easier time finding / placing the right crew for the job, if crew were to be completely honest about where their strengths lie. And of course, these can be changed accordingly as you grow and develop throughout your career.
What do you think? Should we go for it?!
