I’m in IT - have had a series of bosses that have been resistant to scripting. But because I’m lazy I still will script a solution, finish “early” and then just not tell them I’m done until when it feels like as long as it would have taken to do manually.
I was fired from a job after I had automated so much of my workload. The phone calls for help started about 2 weeks later. I had to laugh, sorry, I was working a new job and didn’t have time for their crap. They ended spending way more than what my salary was on 3 new employees to cover what my lazy scripts were doing.
Getting ready to retire, and boy I do not want to be around once my scripting that everyone relies on breaks. And it will, it requires regular upkeep by me. Not by design or maliciousness, but because of Microsoft 365 stupidity. But oh well…
100% of the time.
