I didn't know that being physically tongue-tied was a thing until I went to get my wisdom teeth removed several years ago, and my surgeon pointed out that the thing that connects my tongue to the bottom of my mouth was a little too far close to the front of my mouth, so he offered to cut it back. But my tongue-tiedness never bothered me, so I declined.

Ohnoes! I'm sure talking to people will come easier the more you do it.

OOh, kitty toys! Do they like it so far?

My work was the same way before I became work from home (which was like... three months before the pandemic looool irony)

Programmers are not the most social folk on the best of days.
I have enjoyed some work enviornments that were a little more social. But work from home is better for my nerves. Inevitably my work has rather large gaps of time where I am very legitimately waiting for something to happen. Whether it’s waiting on work from my peers, waiting for my work to be verified, waiting for the requirements to be figured out, etc. In an office I get to sit and twitch and hope I don’t look like I’m goofing off to my superiors. At home I can goof off on avatar sites and nobody cares.

It's nice that working from home made things better for you! Or at least that's how I read it, so correct me if I'm wrong lol.

Yes!
I very much enjoy work from home over being in an office overall.

That's great!
It's funny, I used to be so content to be a hermit and stay home all the time. Nowadays I look for just about any excuse to get out if I can.

    we had a meeting with my coworkers a while back and one of them made a good point
    since i do design, my tasks are not daily tasks like theirs are i.e. customer correspondence but the stuff i do is more project types, so it's more irregular
    coming off from doing 2 major projects i'm a bit like ~_~ i need a break tbh..

@pachi:
Oh are you a UX Designer then?
Yea you get those same weird gaps I do then as requirements come in for things. And weirdly busy times too. It's not the best but it's not wholly avoidable either.

LOL that's fair. I totally get that. The main reason I'm getting burnt out so bad on my current team is because the management is trying to push us to move fast and the product is not so polished as a result and it drives me insane.

I'm planning on taking two weeks in September after our upcoming release. I need to take an actual break from burn out. Staycations are my jam usually anyway.

And have time to job hunt because I'm tired of this crap looool.

My company does all our yearly performance reviews at the same time at the end of the year. If I'm still around by then or haven't changed teams I'm gonna die a little.
