My sense of responsibility won't let me miss deadlines, but that's a rare occasion, and I make up for it by doing literally nothing but dialing in to required meetings and deflecting work for however many days as I feel makes it right.

This is like the silent quitting or whatever.

My biggest gripe is that its still a waste of my time. If I was able to still work at home at least I could be productive there while doing this.

If the task I started on Friday isn't finished by someone else by the time I come back on Monday, then the crews working every shift after my Friday shift aren't doing their job.

Whether that's true depends on one's job.

Some work is solo work.

I'm a janitor. They should be cleaning those toilets I didn't get to.

In my job, the philosophy is: if you can't end it bè the end of your shift, you are understaffed, and if so, then the problem is not yours, so go home and finish it tomorrow.

Unless it's a real emergency, obviously, but those are so rare that I rarely end up a year with more than 10 hours of overtime at the end of december.

I'd say you can do the work you're so enthusiastic about
