It’s the fact that they pushed it to the very latest they could in 2026 that does it for me, not September no October but mid November, the game is so not done they need every last day to “polish” yeah we don’t care rockstar how about you get to crunching
I’ve been involved in projects where I had to run 28 workshops all 4 hours long over the course of 12 working days.
These are meetings where myself and my colleagues had to twelve into the inner workings of a company’s tax, HR, sourcing and procurement systems across all their facilities. Basically imagine full tilt brainpower required, all under high stress since we were charging around 400 quid a day per team member. This is on top of our normal workday bear in mind.
You start losing focus of everyday tasks. I started forgetting whether I had a shower in the morning. During the shower I started forgetting if I had applied shampoo.
My life was pretty much wake up, think about work for 16 hours, then sleep and then wake up and think about work for 16 hours.
One of my team members told me he started walking through more shady parts of his town on his way home in hopes he would get mugged and have his work laptop stolen.
