My coworker barely works… but somehow always looks like the top performer

There’s someone in my team who does the bare minimum. I know it because I’ve seen their work closely. But somehow, they always manage to look busy and stay visible. They speak a lot in meetings. They update managers frequently. They make small things sound bigger than they are. Meanwhile, I’m actually doing the work… but not talking about it as much. And guess what? They’re the one getting noticed. I’m starting to realise that doing the work and showing the work are two completely different things. But it’s frustrating. Because now it feels like I either have to change how I operate… or accept being invisible. Is this just how corporate works?
