    I guess in the office I work in I'm the one who gets things done too quickly and then leaves my boss struggling to find more work for me

    That's me currently. Trolllololing on EoFF.

    I do things to quick, get everything done, then get bored and lose drive to do other things. On EoFF and in my office job.

    Don't know who that is, wiki'd.

    He is notorious for his lack of social skills and common sense, his love for martial arts and the justice system

    I think I would probably be the guy who didn't work there but stuck around anyways.

    Or not. I dunno. Never done office work.

    I'm the guy who's going to become Creed. I'll try to find some way to not do any real work.

    Wait, so what why would I be the head of accounting still Shorty? And what makes you say the head of HR? Is it because the head of HR is the guy whose too busy firing people to know their names?

    I would spend the entire day talking about football and video games while somehow simultaneously getting all my work done with no real explanation as to how both things happened (seriously I don't even know).

    You must be new to working in offices. I thought the unspoken rule was to take a project and drag it out for as long as is reasonably possible.

    People don't purposely take their time, it's just that office works sucks all the life out of you, crushing your soul, making you a lifeless shell.

    I'd just feel so useless doing that though.

    Thing is, I don't just sit there and hammer away at my work with intensity or speed through it. I take my time, maybe surf EoFF in the background, have a snack, get some water, and just go at my own pace. I still just seem to get things done much more quickly than they expect me to :/
