> I don't enjoy working this way, my mind is constantly decluttering. But it's also unnerving to just spend up to 2 hours waiting for my supervisor's approval, so I'm at loss. Maybe it's something that you should discuss with your team leader? Obviously depends on your specific situation, but if you can't spend a few hours focusing deeper on a single project, it seems to me it's more of a management fault. I'd probably bring this up as "Hey, can you help me figure out the best approach here? I often get stuck waiting for approval. I switch to next thing when that happens, but it requires lots of context switching. Think we can greenlight some things in advance or set some other structure so I can work more effectively?"
