I opened my eyes and found myself a county magistrate in the Ming dynasty. All I wanted was to slack off at work, but my subordinates were even more laid-back than I was.
So I had a bright idea: I created the “Great Ming KPI Assessment,” docking the pay of anyone caught slacking.
From then on, the whole county went into overdrive. Our achievements soared, catching the court's attention. I was promoted three ranks in a row and transferred to the capital.
Looking at the mountain of memorials piled up in the imperial study, and the smiling Wanli Emperor on the throne, I nearly passed out.
Your Majesty, is it too late to apply to go back and work a 996 schedule?
