    I do something that probably appears this way, i spend the first few months working extra hard to find ways to be maximally lazy going forward. I highly recommend it.

      Seem very competent, work hard, understand all the processes and help review or improve products…

      That way no one comes back to my office to check on me and notice I’m playing BG3 at the desk instead of working.

      I’m a software engineer and involved in hiring, and I love hiring lazy devs, they’ll automate the boring parts away leaving just the interesting stuff.

        I am a lazy DevOps developer, I spend half my time developing software with another team because I got everything to run so smoothly, I only had a small amount of maintenance tasks left to do. I am going for three 9’s for the one pipeline this year. It could have been that or better already but nobody works on weekends, so if it goes down nobody will take care of it until Monday morning.
