Had managers sent me home after I finished as a reward, I guarantee the others would have matched my efforts.
some more modern thinking businesses have started to come around to this idea, usually the likes of google, Netflix etc. some roles have no core hours and no fixed holidays etc. just objectives. if you hit your objectives then it doesn't matter what you do, how many holidays you take etc.
finished your objectives for the year by the end of November - take the rest of the year off.
if more companies worked like that a lot more projects would complete on time.
