Correlating IQ and STEM performance

I was not clear enough. Let me make an adjustment, here.

My intuition says, you mean "Arrive at some reasonable time; work normally expected or assigned number of hours; and be helpful in the opportunities that require that help."

Well, I can't argue with that. That's pretty much a bulls-eye.

EDIT: Although in reality, suddenly one of your colleagues is made head of the artclub and all their work ends on your desk. I have a lot more examples but nvm.

The average IQ is taken to be 100, the SD is 15; I guess from historical data, Then the 68-95-99% applies.

Not quite. According to https://acisiq.com/iq-percentile-chart, 1sd is 84 percentile, 2sd is 98 and 3sd us 99.9.

How does contradict what I said? That's the 1-2-3 aka the 68-95-99 rule, 34.3% contained $\pm$1 SD from the mean, ~$47.5$ % contained within $\pm$ 2 SDs, etc. Do they specify the mean as something other than 100? It didn't seem that way in your link.

It doesn't; I was on a "different page" when I read your post. I was thinking in terms of percentile. Sorry.

No problem.

Funnily, even though I have no education, the work of an employee with a Ph.D in mathematics from Teheran University and an actuary doing legacy-coding in a statistical language (EDIT: R I think it was) had to pass my desk before being sent on. Good days. Stressful but good.

I start work when I feel like it, i usually am there at 8:30 am... if there's some extenuating circumstance I'll come in at 4am, but in that case I'm not staying late... I get there when I get there, but I'll stay as long as I need to..
I tend to put in at least 50 hours a week, though 60+ isn't terribly uncommon
