<p>Good point, DP. And what about people who <em>are</em> slow, but do quality work? Can’t hey still be given a piece of a project or a smaller project to do (perhaps, again, for less pay than coworkers) and still contribute? </p>
<p>I know I definitely am methodical about tasks I do; for instance, when I worked at a corporate pizza joint years ago, the manager once told me I made the most picture-perfect pizzas of all his staff, but that I made them wayyyy too slow. (I also, notoriously in our family, take forever in the shower and getting ready to go somewhere, but I am very clean and well coiffed as an end result.)</p>
