After working tirelessly to secure a major project, a key employee has his entire project bonus confiscated by management simply for drinking water at his workstation. Disheartened, he decides to strictly distinguish his official duties from extra work and stops taking on colleagues' miscellaneous tasks for free. His coworkers have grown accustomed to relying on him to cover for them over the years. When they urgently need missing materials and ask for his help, he refuses, causing a project meeting to be postponed and triggering a client complaint. When confronted, he makes it clear that the team's spotless track record was always the result of his quietly filling in the gaps for everyone.
