It's pretty remarkable how often one has to shout into the echo chamber of the Internet that if the work gets done properly, nothing else should matter.

It seems that his coworkers complete the same daily tasks over the course of the full 8-hour work day, while this guy manages to complete all his tasks correctly in half that time.

One would think that if this employee were tasked with more responsibility as a result of his efficiency, he would receive a promotion or, at the very least, a raise.
