Last month, we asked readers to rate their level of appreciation in their present jobs. Here is how they responded.

Work Appreciation
In your present job, how highly do you feel your employer appreciates the work your documentation team is doing?
Greatly appreciated	18.4%
Very appreciated	20.7%
Somewhat appreciated	32.2%
Low / minimum appreciation	24.1%
No appreciation	4.6%

On the positive side, most people realize some level of appreciation, but it’s obviously not to any great extent on any count. I’m wondering why that is.  I truly expected a higher percentage in the “Very appreciated” category and less in the “Low / minimum appreciation” category. One challenge now is to figure out how to improve these numbers in the workplace.

Thanks to everyone who participated in this poll.
