How do people like this not get roped into countless meetings? Do workplaces exist in the digital space that actually communicate without a meeting culture?
They scripted their attendance with python.
This is the kind of automation I believe in: Bottom-up, with no permission asked and no goal but to hold down one thriving wage with minimal effort and maximum free time. My only critique is that they felt the need to brag in public. You teach this shit in secret so the bosses never twig.
tbh this story isn't new, the IT guy who has scripted everything and works 1 hour a week even in the office has been around since like the 80's
I used to shoot fireworks professionally as a side gig, and the guy running the show was essentially working full time, but he had another full time job and i eventually asked him how the hell he did it.
It was this same story. He automated his shit, set up catches and only he would recwicer the alerts so he had time to be where he needed to be when they finally called him to fix it
