I would follow SOP … Standard Operating Procedures and follow up with leadership on what I believe to be a more efficient completion process.

Ask a supervisor and explain how you could possible do it an easier way but would still prefer doing it as it has been done before.

I feel that if has worked sufficiently so far we should use the method that has worked for so many before. No need in disruptive what is already in place.

If the traditional method works and everyone is comfortable, it may be best to stick with it, even if a more efficient way exists. Sometimes, consistency helps the team manage and see potential improvements while maintaining stability.

Keep doing it the way that it's been done but suggest the way that you feel might save some time to a supervisor that way your butt is covered and if they like it now they like your way of doing things they see that it's efficient approach it in a professional detailed oriented suggestion format and let it go from there and you'll find what kind of boss you have if they're an a-hole though dismiss you right off the bat to and if they're understanding and smart they'll listen to you and then that will also answer a question do I want to keep working here
