I just had a rough few weeks, stretched thin over too many failing projects whilst getting little to no sleep. It’s Sunday and I feel shell shocked still, complete brain fog, too numb to function.
I just crimped a cable to give myself the illusion that I’m in control of my life, and thankfully that went okay, and I’m building off the momentum of that to slowly rouse myself out of my work-induced stupor.
The task isn’t even technically hard. I know I just need to put the time in. But sheer severe negative feedback I’ve been receiving from it on top of the knowledge that I simply don’t have much time to dedicate to it makes me want to do it less, and yet the more I put it off, the worse I feel.
I plan to take some time off next week, but I know that if I don’t finish what I need to finish by then, they will hint strongly that I should get it done on my time off.

They can fuck right off. Do whatever you can to not bring work home with you. If they haven’t hired enough manpower to complete the tasks they need done without someone working overtime or during time off? That’s on your manager, not you.

I’m tired boss.

Don’t do work when you aren’t paid for it.
