    Ugh that sounds awful. I'd rather just have a small amount of projects in general. Small or large doesn't matter, I'd just rather it be a small amount so I can focus on them. Having too many things going on at once, like I do right now, causes me to stress and panic.

    Yeah, I get that. What's even worse is getting that but being unable to address them right away. I got all kinds of junk I had to do at work and didn't have a working laptop to get those things done. And more things keep piling up in the meantime...

    Yeah I hate being thrown around so much too. Like today I was finding things, but my manager kept calling me back up front. Eventually told me to just stay there. Was an awful day to tell the truth.

    That's terrible they think they can just pile on more and more tasks for you like that. Especially if they expect you to finish them all in time.

    Eh, sorry to hear you had a rough day...

    Eventually I stop caring about the deadlines. They're almost always unrealistic and don't have a logical explanation as to how that date was decided. A lot of the work I do is not super critical either.

    Faster, better, cheaper. You can have two of those three, but not all three.

    Oof man that sucks. Hopefully next time it won't be so bad.

    Such is life, unfortunately. I'll get through it.

    I can't tell you how many Spring and Thanksgiving breaks were outright ruined by school shoveling out meaningless, unproductive garbage and assignments.

    I love how movies and TV shows depict college kids going to places like the Bahamas or to Miami for Spring break when ha ha ha, not a chance, they're too broke and have way too many assignments to even dream of going to places like that. Never once in all my years of college could I pull off anything even close to that and I didn't know anyone else in my classes who did it either.

    Yeah there's aaaaaaall these specials and promos for "celebrate spring vacation!" And things like that. You can't wait to experience it yourself. Only to find out it's much different and there's way more responsibilities to it than just that. It's not as easy to enjoy that luxury.

    Yeah I may have gone to Disney World for spring break sophomore year but when we weren't in the parks I was writing several research papers and studying for tests.
