#actually terrified im not actually gonna get time off on my PTO #the problem is like. they want to kick off so much shit within the next two weeks bc they want to get stuff in before the new year #and as of now im the person in charge of kicking off of a lot of these runs #and even if i could leave it to someone else my ENTIRE team is trying to take PTO at the same time #so we're all on call and i just feel like. im gonna get on called every day 😐 #and at that point its like can i retract my PTO? can i get doubly paid for this? 😭 #like literally the only person on my team thats gonna be around still is the new guy 😭 #also our test lead has decided to move back to his hometown to raise his newly born kid #he leaves mid january and while he is trying to get as many things done as he gone #its gonna leave a huge huge hole which defaults to my team likely having to pick up #im gonna miss him for real though he's one of like the og employees lmao and i really liked him #anyways 😑 times are changing #but yeah theres just. you think you can breathe and suddenly theres just more work #tbh a lot of what i do isnt even hard. its just nobody else knows how to do it really #like its a lot of niche knowledge stuff? which is why im the one who ended up doing all of it 😭 #i hope the new guy is fast at pickung things up #im excited bc hes the first new hire thats actually gonna work stuff that will directly relieve some of my workload #but he literally started last week so obviously we cant just immediately give him production stuff to work with #idk how far he is in ramping up #he was supposed to shadow me but thats kinda hard in a remote format #iiasha shut up
