Re: Fuck that
I generally do the same, I'd rather just fix a problem pronto and get on. However this is the real world you know what happens to people who are good at their jobs? Management spots them and dumps on them big time, more people see you as a "miracle worker" and next thing you're working 14 hour days trying to keep up and every Tom, Dick and Harry will come to you as they know you get stuff done.
Trust me, I've been there and sometimes play the hero and do something double-quick, other times it's better to just play it low key and let the glory and credit go to someone else, else you become a marked man.
