A couple jobs ago, when I realized I was doing all of the non-trivial front-end work at about the workload of ~4 of the other engineers, I just went golfing half the time. That way I was getting paid the same but for half the time at work! And a job before that, my boss told me that I was making the other engineers feel dumb so she wanted me to do less. So I started crocheting at my desk. She helped me with my technique a couple times too.

It's funny, I think I'd feel more dumb if the person beside me was crocheting half the time but still more productive than me!


One of the best parts of WFH is not having to do a bunch of performative theater.
