Commendation performance?

[Adire]

If you don't feel you're being adequately rewarded for your performance, stop playing at max performance. I personally commend people who go above and beyond, but most don't. In any case, no one has the right to tell you to perform at 100% all the time if you don't want to for any reason if you're getting your job done either way, so don't do it if you don't think it's worth your effort.
