It doesn't work that way though. The company didn't spend an extra $500 that year because an engineer spent 90 seconds each day opening a few prompts. They paid that engineer the same salary as the other case. Maybe the engineer just spent 90 seconds less each day on their phone, or stayed until 5:01:30 that day instead. Or took a shorter lunch. Or only had 6-7 hours of work each day anyway so it didn't make a difference.
