Eric! HOW DID YOU KNOW! 😀 .. My Birthday is on June 7th. 🙂
As to when “Hurry up and wait” happens.. I usually focus on random things, or get a little rest in. This happens ALL THE TIME at Amazon. (I work at Amazon.) They make us go so fast that it jams up all the belts, then we stand there and wait. It’s actually funny. I get proven every night how going “slower” .. gets it done faster.
You the man, Eric! Still doing my Honda.. preparing for my S10 Blazer.. and hoping that horrible “treadmill belt” noise on the Envoy IS something dumb like the inside of the tire on the Envoy. Waiting, so that I don’t mess anything up (since the Envoy doesnt have anything wrong with it lol.)
Sincerely, – Joseph
As an IT guy by profession, hurry up and wait is 90% of what I do.
Set up a task on the machine, and wait for the machine to do it. Customers don’t seem to get that I can’t make the computer scan itself or install things any faster than it’ll go. So often I’m just stuck here waiting.
In fact, I’m waiting right now for some tests to complete, so I went on youtube to watch ETCG videos.
It’s nice when on a project you have the time to just hang back and watch your powertool batteries recharge. Take the moment to recharge yourself too.
usually if I know im going to have a period of waiting (IT here as well) I will try and plan things accordingly to maximize the waiting time, like if I know a specific task will take an hour and its the longest task to doI will plan that so when I hit that part I can either take a lunch break for that time or have other tasks already in process while I wait for it to finish
