I got a sticker for asking a question that turned out to be a fault 🏅
I got a sticker for a “nice escalation”.
My company has a system called thank-you stickers, and when 10 of them pile up, they become a 1000 yen Amazon card.
There was too much I did not know, so I did not understand anything. So I just kept asking my seniors about everything.
Then sometimes, the thing I asked as a question was really a fault.
There are things I do not understand, and I ask my seniors thinking they will know, but sometimes it is quite bad, and it is a fault that leads to an incident. At times like that, it can turn into a “nice escalation”.
Something I asked as a question ended up becoming an escalation, and a lucky fine play was born, and the stickers piled up.
When someone said “nice escalation” to me, I was happy.
Stickers with “nice escalation” written on them kept piling up, and I was a bit happy.
