you never forget the moment someone spells it out for you. i used to work in local newspaper - and it was always a wild goose chase type of thing. You work fast because there is always some shit happening.
Then i switched into marketing and started doing copywriting jobs. One day i finished the assignment in like an hour and the lead came to me and shared some wisdom “nah, you need to make some revisions and the revisions are SEND THIS SHIT FIVE HOURS LATER, HAVE SOME DIGNITY”.
You can’t destroy the rainforest. There’s a careful balance to these things, no one benefits from it burning down long term
And more individually - if you can work fast, and you consistently save the day when the chips are down, you’re a magician. They will value you, and excuse any weirdness, because that’s just how magicians are
If you work fast consistently, you’re a workhorse. They’ll depend on you, but they won’t value you. Your successes will be normal, providing less than maximum output will be failure, and for some reason they’ll think you can be easily replaced
