Real Life Secrets That People Couldn’t Keep Bottled Up Any Longer

A co-worker retired and I inherited one of his reports, which is one of my employer’s Key Performance Metrics. Every two weeks, it would take him an entire eight-hour day to complete.

The first week I was able to automate most of it down to one hour. Over the next nearly 10 years, I’ve improved it to the point that it runs in less than a minute.

I then spend the next eight hours surfing Reddit, watching movies, and just doing whatever I want in my office from home.

All this time, I’ve told my boss it takes me eight hours to perform, and sometimes I’ll tack on extra hours because of “technical issues.”

No questions asked as long as it’s in his inbox by the end of the day Friday. Story credit: Reddit / miauguau44
