In school I once got a lower grade for standing around with my hands in my pockets after my task was done.
Other kids who were doing the same but not with hands in their pockets didn't get admonished, but in a way I suppose the teacher had a point. Gotta teach the kids to look busy!
When I finished work early in school they gave me candy and let me read whatever I wanted
That's some bullshit, I would finish early a lot, I was really fortunate I had reasonable teachers mostly. It was common they would say "since you're done why don't you help your neighbors if they're having trouble?" I felt like an achiever and it also instilled more of a helper mindstate in me at a young age.
