'I've learned my lesson…': Employee finishes assigned work early, boss finds out and sends employee to a different state to complete other's tasks, leading to a dispute when they return
Every employee faces the choice of whether or not they should power through their assigned work and finish early, risking their manager finding out and giving them even more work, or simply take their time with the work they have been given, that way making sure there are no addition tasks handed to them.
The employee in this Reddit story chose the first option, and they are now regretting it, as they learn that hard work is only rewarded with more work.
OP (original poster), has been given monthly tasks, and they decided to work extra hard so they can finish it all in one week, which will provide them with the rest of the month to focus on other work they have. Somehow, their boss found out about their plan and decided to send OP to a different state and cover for someone else's work. OP reluctantly complied, which led to an even bigger workload overflow when they returned.
