Bullshit job haver here. I got hired by a local business whose management style is best described as chaotic neutral. I overachieved automating parts of my job via spreadsheet macros and showed them off to the right people and when my manager’s position opened up (our departments were always shuffling around because we were growing like mad) I was the only one left in department. By the end of the pandemic, I had automated away the entire job without telling anyone and worked just enough to keep up the act. Oddly enough, I was in constant stress between my life having no purpose and being under constant stress of feeling like I’m gonna get found out and fired. If I didn’t have a few recurring meetings each week, I could have died and no one would have noticed
