Maybe sherpa engineer? An athlete actually rests so their muscles
can grow. A sherpa just goes non stop lugging shit up and down the mountain.
Also unless you run brain scans and video feeds of someone and their screen 24/7 you don’t really know the hours they do even if they are in their office chair.

IME most people don't know how many hours they actually worked vs hours they were in their chair. Most folks also overestimate their productivity from "multi-tasking", despite the overwhelming research showing productivity losses.

It would be hard to quantify, but it could be done
There are different arguments for "Folks should be allowed more time off, e.g. walk the dog" and "Folks can multi-task while working, e.g. walk the dog and talk on conference calls."
My argument (and I think your comment) was related to the latter, that human beings are more likely to overestimate their productivity, which various studies have shown.
