RE: Losing Yourself to Development
Couldn't agree more. Its so easy to feel like everything depends on getting the project "out the door" at the expense of everything. Being a developer and now working with a large company that makes software I often feel the urge to drop everything and FIX IT for fear of losing the job or falling behind. Thankfully, I have fixed hours at said company so the urge is quickly quieted by the lack of payable time the company can give. Being forced to "clock out" and breathe has been the best part about the job so far.
@bflanagin Good that you've somehow found a way out. Know that you're lucky enough because of that 'coz a lot are still struggling to be out of the situation and it prettily is present everywhere you go.
