Slacked work for whole week
Im not proud of this. But i was slacking off my work by working on a single feature the whole week. I could’ve finished the development part in 3 days. But i was not having motivation to work. Rather i was spending my time playing xbox 😑
Boss makes a dollar
I make a dime
That was a poem
From a simpler time
Now he makes a hundred
And I get plundered
So I play the xbox
On the company's clock

There’s a guy in my org.
He does something great , out of the box , once in a while , something that others are not willing enough to work on like clearing tech debts , enhancing productivity, sharing ideas on new features , learning new tech , things like these , and then chills for next 2 weeks , at times doesn’t show up entire day and puts status power cut.
But he is the one getting 100% promotions year on year from past 2 years !!
You gotta find a way to keep your CTO happy , other than that do anything just keep showing up and once in a while and act like you are the CTO , small tasks others can do !! 🫠
The point is do you show that you are working? That's enough. Just show that you are an insanely hard working guy

So you think fessing up on grapevine makes it lesser, Jk enjoy your life mate
Lol those are rookie numbers. I’ve stretched four hours of work over an entire week
Im not bro, i have done this lot of times but this guilt never goes 😂
Been there...!In my case,sometimes I had to drag things or else I won't be having any work.
My manager and seniors were upset,since I started to work on tasks from other development teams 😂.Dude what I do? I didn't have solid work for 2 weeks.
Anyways my seniors asked to upskill.I got a task now.i can finish it within a single day but I am draging it for weeks.
Because of this I am planning to switch.
Also I would recommend playing witcher 3,Mass effect series and Skyrim if you haven't played them.
Currently I spend time playing gacha games like honkai star rail and genshin impact.
All 3 have excellent music too! Surround/headphones recommended!

No i work at an early stage startup, they ordered the laptop directly to me from amazon. And also they don’t care that much abt this.. it’s abt my own conscience 😂

You did what was expected of you that's good and you are mentally happy doing other stuff that's good too and don't see anything to be worried about.
Yeah it’s just this guilty conscience. Even the CTO won’t tell me anything. It’s just my own conscience
If the job at hand is done everything else is valid . Vice versa is false . You are doing good mate.
Hey its happening for me too, you are not alone I guess this is only for a short period of time and once you get bored of what currently you are doing you will get back to it or some one from your team will pull you don't bother🤣

Our company doesn't do deadlines but we have an important event coming up where we have to showcase our application. The first week I worked super hard to get it out. The next I slacked and the third I got back to my usual pace.
We have a weekly sprint they don’t micromanage but i need to submit at deadline.
You are a true slacker, good for you! Make sure your lead doesn't find this post.
