wow your dad sounds like me. I love automating systems on
   computers because it frees up SO MUCH TIME and THEN I choose
   what to do with the rest of it. One option is cramming even MORE
   automated systems into the freed up time to accomplish more
   things at once. I used this at a a number of jobs so they'd
   marvel at my efficiency and effectiveness and it let me take
   longer bathroom breaks if I wanted.
