A good shift lead hands out the bad tasks fairly, starting with themselves.
RESILIENCE
RESILIENCE
Authority gets tested on the unpleasant jobs, not the pleasant ones. Anyone can share out the easy tasks fairly, but how the bin run or the deep clean gets handed out tells everyone whether the person in charge is on their side. Taking one yourself first ends the argument before it starts. That is most of what people mean by a good boss.
If you lead anything, a shift or a group project or a team, take the worst task on the list next time without discussion. Then split the rest evenly and say out loud how you divided it. Watch how differently people respond to your next request.
