I used to be, but not as much nowadays.

Life has taught me people that overachieve are usually taken advantage of, or people come to expect so much from you, when you don't go overboard... that one time you decide to do "just enough?"
People are disappointed or look at you differently. All because you set the bar so high for yourself!

This is especially true in the workplace. Good grief, I no longer go above and beyond because at the end of the day, it just means MORE work and LESS appreciation.

You're an under achiever, just like how you're under the table, under the normal weight for a baby boy, under maaaaany things

  Thank you! And, exactly. Like I will work like a dog when required or, frankly, when the benefits outweigh the costs. But, otherwise, give me some popcorn and a movie.
