I’ve had a week to do 2 hours max of work. It’s due 2 days ago. I’ll start it tomorrow.

Fwiw, I believe in you and your ability to do the 2 hours of work!

I struggle to get shit done too, but it gets done, checkmate naurospicies! :p

The thing is, if you would have done the 2 hours of work immediately, and within 2 hours, you would just be bringing attention to the fact that you only needed 2 hours and you will get more work assigned to you with no benefit whatsoever.

Now they think it actually takes a week, and you've properly set their expectations to 2 hours of work per week.

It is not always possible to guess which problem will become a huge problem and which will just quietly dissolve on its own.

That’s a solid point. Most issues just stop being personal issues when they reach a certain magnitude.

The problem, as I see it, is all the damage that wave creates on its way through. Because it’s often a lot, like the tsunami depicted.

I was very aware of the huge issue it would be. I had a literal year if not two to work out something. I was aware all along it would be life ruining and in my mental state, probably suicide inducing.

And I starred at the task doing nothing until it hit me. Yeah.

I didn't kill myself. I have a second try. Check on me in October.

Ok, I will. 'Till October...

Me: Fuck you past me! Always leaving me to clean up your mess!

Better than my asshole roommate who constantly leaves his clothes on the floor and dishes unwashed in the sink.

Full disclosure: I live alone

I've got the same roommate and he smokes all my fucking weed.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

sounds like a real asshole, I hope he at least pays your rent

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Also me: Fuck you future me! You deal with this!

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

My current recommended strategy: turn around and look the other way. Now all you see is a sunny beach and nice palm trees.

If I'd known that inevitable death was that easy I'd have put shit off even sooner.
