Acheivement unlocked: For the first time in 2 years (!!) I spent a full day coding. And it was fun. Feels surreal.
Let this be a warning to not burn yourself out with overwork. Not everyone can be okay taking a 2 year break from full time coding.

What makes me angry is that a lot of the overwork was due to bad management, but they aren’t paying for it. I lost the ability to code full time for 2 years and they’re still in the same management roles, doing this to the developers they hired to replace burnt out ones.

Replying to @sehurlburt
I did the salaryman thing from 2007 to 2010 and was so burned out by it that I didn't have a "normal" work schedule again until halfway through 2014. My expectation is that the old company is still grinding folks down. Long-term professional goal: distribute alternatives widely.
