So I work for a state government and I can code a wee little bit. I found some ways to automate a good chunk of my work with app scripts. Full disclosure, I review them but I couldn’t do it without Gemini. 😅 (That being said I would never trust an agent as an automation for anything)

I made the mistake of telling a coworker or two about the first automation I did. One of them told the boss thinking I’d get kudos.😔 I did and more work.

Haven’t shared any of the automations since. I also built all the ones since to slowly work over the work day so it looks like I’m doing them manually in real time. I also automated all of the data imports using my work email so if I get fired. My account is terminated too and they will all stop functioning.

I gotta say it’s actually made my work day much lighter. Hopefully it won’t catch up with me negatively
