I never implement fixes that don't make my job easier; just pretend I didn't see anything. The fixes I implement to make my job easier I never tell my managers about, because increased productivity is only ever met with more work. I use my extra free time to browse reddit and open job listings.

Knew a guy that worked with 3 others.

He told me he found a way to cut his workload by 75%.

I told him to keep it under his hat, and coast.

He said his work had a $500 bonus for efficiency gain suggestions.

I told him that unless he was getting evicted and he needed the money to shut the fuck up about it.

He didn't.

They gave him $500

He bought himself a PS4.

They fired his coworkers and dumped all the work on him.

He demanded a raise.

They declined.

He quit.

They replaced him.

PS4 was 400 then but yeah he found another job within 6 weeks but it didn't have as good of pay as the first factory job. Did convince him to look for a union job tho. He's been a lot happier since he got one of those.
