When you start working at 5:30 am, and you're ready for a break at 9:30, but everyone else is just getting started and assigned you new tickets to do that day. 🥴

Oh fuck
Yeah, the days feel crazy-long, but end at like 4 p.m. 😂
By lunchtime, I'm half-blind.
how early do u get up from bed??
Sounds like you're working more than the rest of them!
Yes, but not more than my mentor. He's an absolute machine.
I worry about things like that. Some people enjoy their work and do a lot of it, but it can create an incentive for everyone to push themselves too hard and burn out, especially when the leaders are all doing it.
Not sure what the right balance is, because the people who work more often do so because they want to accomplish more.
I think it's okay, if some people are faster. Everyone else just has to deal with it. 🤷🏻♀️
Yeah I always feel slow. Seeing the fast people makes me want to be more efficient.
You've gotten MUCH more efficient, since we rolled the Kanban board out. Everyone has. Also, the coordination is way better.
Having work cleanly broken down on the board really helps.
But I'm also talking about efficiency with time in general. Wasting less of it throughout my day. It's been a goal lately.
I wish I could do that, but if I don't take breaks, I get headaches and visual migraines. Which is scary.
Going back to finding the right balance. I think the ideal, but practically difficult in the modern day - rest just as intensely as your work when its done. The alternating between working tasks, passions and rest increases future capacities. A practice cultivated an noted by Da Vinci.
Its difficult, If you have a big family, as "resting" is often housework and visiting relatives, and stuff. No real downtime, unless you're prostrate with the flu, and I've cooked dinner and washed laundry with a high fever, or whatnot.
Yes this is what I'm working on. Not well, but I'm working on it.
