For the last few weeks, I have been overworked.Our team was given a deadline to build and release a product. But there was too much to do in the given timespan. It led to longer hours, less testing, more technical debt and created at least one burnt out programmer.
Of course, this affected my life outside of work. I didn't have the time, energy or motivation to work on any side projects. Instead, I spent my time mindlessly watching television or fiddling with my fantasy football team.
I hope to find a better balance as we start up the next set of work items, which will most likely include fixing bugs with the product we just rushed to complete.
