If you automate your job, DONT show it. Use it and hide it, unless your job is explicitly automation engineer or thereabouts.

Most places don't value the work you saved via automation. It's the company's gain; it shouldn't be yours!

And shame on you for not cranking the gear next to your computer keeping it working! /s Remember, the appearance of work matters more than actual work for almost every employee.



yup, that's why I carry a notepad and take notes down with a serious face and occasional frown... I doodle well too
