    I had a job that was just plugging in new checkout lanes for a grocery store chain and not one of my fellow co-workers could understand the simple, color-coded plugs. The red cable goes in the red hole, the green cable in the green hole, etc.

    I’d be finished installing my lanes in like 15-20 minutes and then I’d spend the rest of the time helping the network dudes make cables and setup the network, since I was the only other person on the team with actual IT knowledge and, at that time I was also still CISCO and A+ certified.

    Since it was not an hourly position (at least, not for my contracted ass), it didn’t make any sense to stall for hours. The faster I get done, the faster I can leave and I get paid the same either eay.
