Yes I know the feeling. That’s basically what it was like in my previous position. As long as there was something in the backlog (which was always the case with hundreds of items usually), there was no time to stop and catch our breath.
I’d sometimes finish earlier than expected and would leave it in WIP and take a half day off while staying "connected" with my phone
Finished && deployed a big release yesterday (like the main component, only changed in 4-5 times over the years).
You know the mental state of "ahh it's done"
I couldn't even savour it and theres needless work given to me just-because. It ain't urgent, it ain't high-priority, and IT'S A FRIDAY TODAY? :v
No wonder the smarter-than-me predecessors left this job. One can't even get a sense of satisfaction after putting that amount of thought and work.
