Task switching to death

gav on 2002-11-19T22:43:27

It's just a little after half five and I should be going home. Unfortunatly I'm not going to be leaving for quite a while. Today I have been task switching so badly that I really have only achived about two hours of decent work. We use a timer application as we bill hourly (like lawyers and whores). Since 9:30 am I've managed 4:30 hours of decent billable time vs. my usual 7-8. I have 11 tasks all less than 15 mins each. I think this more or less adds up to 2 hours wasted task switching. I'm feeling a bit burnt out and it's only Tuesday.
