Ps. "mental bandwidth" means our cognitive capacity and our ability to pay attention, make good decisions, stick with our plans and resist temptations

Literally depends on the employee by employee case

Depends on how did a particular day go ? Sometimes i would be swamped with work/meetings for a day so as to not even have pay much attention whether I had dinner or not. Other days, I might end up going out and appreciate the weather outside. 😊

Hi Fishes,
Need advice.
I have been working in my current organization for the past 10 months. Since my team is very small, I was asked to do a variety of roles, which I happily obliged. I was hired as a developer and have played the role of BA, Tester and PM happily but each of these roles have been for a short while and was assigned to someone else once the heavy lifting is done. The independent projects gets halted due to this being a pharma Company and it’s process-oriented nature
