On days when you get done very little shouldn't others be helping to figure out ways to get you unblocked and making progress again?
- ahelwer 5y agoNo, absolutely not. Many people, myself included, can’t just be firing on all cylinders all the time. The downtime is necessary for the uptime. “Help” of this type from coworkers (or rather managers, let’s be real) only drives home the idiotic message that anything other than uniform incremental daily progress is an aberration that must be corrected.
