Conducting a little test at work to see how little I can get done without being noticed

Got pissed off at a 20 cent raise in January, wanted to see what I could do to get back silently. So the past month I've started doing the bare minimum work. Now my situation is weird because I am in quality control and don't necessarily have a “boss” that's within my field so people usually leave me be. I work directly with production side of the company so my presence is usually felt doing checks as soon as its ready. Instead of staying on the floor all day now I just stay in my office and only pop out to show my face randomly, catch up and then go back. Some days I'll spend 8 hours of my 10hr day in my small office watching YouTube videos and bullshitting. Now when I'm need I absolutely do not shy away from the work but it's just not all day anymore.…

So the past month I've started doing the bare minimum work. Now my situation is weird because I am in quality control and don't necessarily have a “boss” that's within my field so people usually leave me be. I work directly with production side of the company so my presence is usually felt doing checks as soon as its ready. Instead of staying on the floor all day now I just stay in my office and only pop out to show my face randomly, catch up and then go back. Some days I'll spend 8 hours of my 10hr day in my small office watching YouTube videos and bullshitting. Now when I'm need I absolutely do not shy away from the work but it's just not all day anymore.

In these last few weeks I've gotten more praise about quality checks/green lighting the projects and how well I've helped production more than I ever have. It's very odd but I'm just going to continue it instead of breaking my back 6 days a week.
