Like no sense killing yourself for an implied deadline when there’s probably more time to get it finished anyways and you know it’s not going to be reviewed for days..
Around that level, when I was starting to be more in charge of ETCs, I had an internal idea of how long it would take to do something. When asked for an ETC, I normally doubled that time and it was fairly accurate. While I'm better now, I still try to operate with an under promise and over deliver mindset
Preach! Except, every time I tried to do that it got completely shut down and I was pressured into unrealistic deadlines and deliverables.
You are right, am killing myself for nothing here... Thanks for the reminder!
Yeah ^ pwc1 so did you tell your teams their ETC is inaccurate? How did they respond?
Seems to be a common theme..
I think it’s great that you’re owning it, learning how to be responsible about promises and managing your commitments!
