    It’s really, really going to depend on your work environment. In some cases, being the person who is 15% more productive buys you some leverage and slack that others don’t have. Was that guy in some roles - there was definitely shit I was able to get away with that would’ve ended in disciplinary conversations for others.

    The trick, though, is being to suss out when that’s actually the case, when you’re just deluding yourself , and when that might’ve been the case once but for whatever reason isn’t anymore. That’s tougher.

      Yeah, in my environment I find that people tend to remember who they can trust with a task and who’s going to fuck it up. And that’s often the basis for networking.
