Rule #1 of the office: Never let them know how fast you actually are.

The reward for finishing work early shouldn’t be more work efficiency is for finding freedom

The reward for digging the best hole is a bigger shovel.

If you’re too good at digging holes, all they give you is a bigger shovel.

Hard work is rewarded with more hard work

That’s why I make commits locally If I’m able to and push after at least 6 hours of workday

Working fast just means you get promoted to doing everyone else’s tasks. Truly a scam.

This is why “quiet quitting” became a thing

This was first discovered by me when I was hurrying my coworker to finish faster or job so we could take a break but he told me our supervisor would just tell us to do some other things instead. So we just did the bare minimum to not get into trouble 🤷🏻

You do the work efficiently, but submit it on time/at the deadline so it looks like you are using all that time to work.
Also, make sure you always seem slightly over worked and overwhelmed. So that keeping up with the deadlines is seen as a victory worthy of praise.

Strongest argument to ask for a raise. More work, more money.

I work hard and fast so I can chill the last half of my shift, not so I can pick up some lazy bums slack.

Our boss considers the best performance by anyone to be the minimal acceptable standard from anyone, so the first thing I tell any new colleagues is to make sure they take the sweet damn time, or we’ll all suffer. Half the time they don’t listen and work like a maniac for a few months before quitting under the self inflicted stress of keeping that pace up, then the rest of us get to relax again.

Finish and keep pretending to be busy.

Work is a cake eating contest and the only reward is more cake.

I work very hard to do as little work as possible.

fr!🥀😭I optimized my workload, not expanded it

I’m fortunate that my job doesn’t operate like that. The second I’m done with my work I have two options:
Help other people finish their own work
Take an early lunch or go home.
In the case of helping other people, my coworkers generally have the grace to buy me lunch if I helped them out meaningfully enough, and no one really comes around to police how long my breaks are or when I’m leaving the office.
Surprise surprise, my entire work place has an exceedingly high efficiency rate and great employee retention.
It’s almost like when you hire responsible adults and treat them like responsible adults instead of breathing down their necks and milking them for all they’re worth, they kinda get stuff done just fine.

My rule of thumb is to promise something in x amount of time even though it takes me only halve of that and than be done after 3/4 of the time. You look good and had extra free time.

Being too openly good at what you do somehow always comes back around to bite you in the ass…
