You work for your school campus and are responsible for reporting cable boxes that have bad wiring. The fact is that most boxes are in horrible shape. It would take you 20 minutes per box to fix the wiring yourself. Or you could kick the boxes off, thus removing you of responsibility and leaving it to the Cable Division. The Cable Division have a professionally trained staff that will assess the situation. The quality is much higher than what you could possibly do on your own. You have fixed a lot of boxes already and you are not being paid by how many boxes you fix. You are only paid by the hour. You are also the hardest worker on the team and have fixed more boxes than both your supervisors who insist that it is tradition to just "kill" bad boxes and leave it to the Cable Division. You know that you should fix the boxes yourself. But leaving it to the Cable Division would be helping out you, your teammates, and the dorm residents who will be living there during the regular school year. It has also been well known that the Cable Division barely does enough work to justify the pay they are commissioned.
