Going to shoot myself into the sun.

The irony of the "back to work" and productivity discourse is that my ability to cram more work into my day is precisely because I don& #39;t have a commute and don& #39;t move from this desk.

The pandemic and tech industry has made it possible to make the workday even more optimized so that I am booked in back to back meetings from the moment I roll out of bed until I force myself to log off at five.

All the "defensive scheduling" in the world doesn& #39;t mean that I can& #39;t be double and triple booked with additional work and deadlines and chat notifications on top of emails and voice chats and zoom meetings.
