The nice thing about time tracking is discovering that I’m pretty productive! I am not, in fact, wasting my time on Bad Stuff like doomscrolling or bingereading 100K+ word fanfics in a single day. The terrible thing about time tracking is discovering that there is actually not enough time in the day to do everything that needs doing.

Doing a 30 Days of Productivity and today is all about time tracking. The only real conclusion I have about time tracking is that it's for people who have office-based jobs because my time tracking would look something like this:

Worked on a VL2600 for an hour Shouted at the VL2600 for ten minutes Poked at the VL2600 for fifteen minutes Stared at the technical diagram for twenty minutes Contemplated life choices for half an hour Realised I forgot to plug a connector back in Ten minutes of staring into space feeling like an idiot
