I'm not adhd (at least I don't think) but I rely on slack reminders at my job (also tech work).

Having reminders sent as messages is really nice. If I write it down I may forget where I wrote it or forget to even check my list if I get plugged in on another task too long. With slack reminders I can just say when to remind me and forget about it.

I'm also a massive stoner so that has a little something to do with it too xD

I have my own work checklists, similarly to you. I just open a new page in a physical notebook every day for all the things we don't track on the sprint board, but I'm responsible for getting done regardless.

I feel you on that last part. In fact, the reason I've been going the extra mile and making little reminders for myself is because I'm letting that first hit creep a little closer to 3pm than the normal 5pm lmao.

Haha same. Actually, if I have no meetings I may wake and bake with a coffee on the side. It's not every day but prob once a week on avg. Helps break up some of the monotony.

Bro, today was a long day of doing nothing for me.

I had to be at work (remotely) and attend some meetings although there's little to no work I can actually accomplish until tomorrow. For various reasons.

You better believe I was hitting that oil cart today. Infrequently, but still...
