If you are more efficient then you probably need to work at hiding that from your employer and finding a way to spend the hours you save doing something beneficial for yourself. You employer pays you for a certain amount of output per hour, if you can do 8 hours of expected output in 1 then that's your business.

I can get away with this at like office jobs but if you work on your feet, I don't see that happening. I never had extra time in the service industry.

Yeah there isn't much room for hiding efficiency and repurposing recovered hours there, maybe pivot into management?
