In the programming world, there is no clear definition of just "doing your job". Two programmers can both work 8 hour days, doing their best work, and one can literally provide 10x or more value than the other. It seems like in programming the only definition of "doing your job" is "do your best".
With such a range of skills and loose definitions, it it is almost impossible to tell who is doing their job and who isn't.
