My Google Calendar Tried to Kill Me Today

[image error]

Today was one of those days when I barely had time to get up between meetings ��� to use the restroom, grab a cup of coffee, or just breathe. It was meeting after meeting after meeting, and even during the few blocks when I didn’t have anything scheduled, I still found myself hopping on calls to help someone who needed support.

I’ve been working from home since 2012, and before COVID, there was always a bit of a buffer between meetings ��� time that actually allowed me to get work done. As a senior manager of engineers, I do spend an enormous amount of time in meetings, but I’m usually the first to suggest canceling one if a Slack message or email would do the trick.
