I wouldn't mind getting things done on my weekends since I'm paid based on my billable time, but my kid needs me too much for it to be a regular occurrence. Different kind of whipped, really.
I have the feeling you're more efficient with your time though. I remember back when I was with my ex, I was super focused at work because I knew I wouldn't have time later.
Now? I stretch out all my tasks across the whole waking period
Maybe? My productivity is highly elastic. Yesterday I got 8 hours' worth done in 3, and today I spent 8 hours getting 3 done, but today I laid down a brutal fusillade of emails that looked like I was busy as fuck.
I'm not efficient by choice. I have to finish fast, because if I don't I have to work in the nighttime which makes me into, as Carl Panzram put it, "a bit of a grouch".
Huh, now that's a... that's a name I've not heard in a while, or perhaps ever. TIL hahahaha
I like weird tragedies. #relatable
