  • I kinda get it. I get interrupted by so much random bullshit during the work week, focusing on projects is hard. Much easier to browse social media at work, respond to email, get out occasionally to do chores, etc. Some light productivity, but deeper concentration is hard.

    Friday is usually my go-to project day. People tend to leave me alone enough so I can actually dig in. I'm content with my current situation so I don't feel a need to work on weekends, but I can totally see how that might be more enjoyable. Not working the entire weekend, just a few hours on Saturday morning where no one will fucking bother me. Could probably get so much more shit done in way less time.

    • I argued for months to get a work from home day on Wednesdays specifically so I have a day of zero interruptions. It's been lovely!

      • That's really cool! I actually work from home 80% of the time. It's just that the nature of my role right now means that I'm expected to respond to others to troubleshoot things, and there are a lot of incoming requests. And there are also long-term projects to be done. And I'm on a team of two people...

        I might just need to go somewhere else actually now that I think of it.
