It don't matter how organized I am, my boss sees I'm done by noon on a friday he'll give me more service calls, shop time or some other job to do.
Just don't say you're done with your work.
That only works until the last call I did calls to pay their bill and now the office knows I'm done my work. I usually just suck it up and take more work, I'd hoestly rather that than twiddle my thumbs for a few hours.
Oh, I see. My work only knows I'm done by when I move my tickets to complete on Jira, so I just leave them as in progress until my due date. I work from home, so I just watch TV or play video games while sitting near my work laptop to respond to emails or chat messages in the meantime.
Living the dream!
