Opened a warranty request for a pair of wireless earbuds that started acting up. Despite having seen reports from other users with the same issue successfully getting replacements I just couldn't do it. Today I finally did the thing.

Did you feel better after doing it?

[–] kilted_cyclist@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Kind of? If that makes sense. It's less a feeling of accomplishment and more relief cause it isn't hanging over my head anymore.

I see it like this; Instead of raising our mood from say a base 0, we're getting to 0 from a negative deficit. A net gain, but not really making you feel better.

Hygiene factors […] do not give positive satisfaction or lead to higher motivation, though dissatisfaction results from their absence.

Getting things done you know you need to do is a hygiene factor.
