Waste is how you frame it.
Even literal poop has a benefit.
I do client work, sometimes it drives me mad how much time I “waste” making PPT slides that are just prettier BI dashboards, but then the client sees it, sends that one slide to his boss and everyone claps me on the back.
I dont fault that really, saying good things when a company does good things is fairly normal, as is working for a company that doesnt do good things but you’ve got to have a job.
