Parkinson's Law

"Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion."

Parkinson's Law

There is little necessity any more that I ever complete any work.
And I have all the time I need to complete any work I choose to do.
Therefore, I should seldom get anything done. And yet I do.
So there's something not quite accurate about that law.

It seems to apply only to corporate work by uninterested employees and doesn't take into account the motivation to get something done for its own sake or for your own sake. Which perhaps reveals the true nature of corporate work.

Oh, I know what the corporate defense against this argument would be: "Good employees don't feel this way; they always work to the company's best interest." But corporate (and government and, more generally, social) definitions often turn logic around backwards, converting black into white, or, if necessary, various shades of gray. Don't fall for it.
