Network hard only so that you don’t end up on a shitty project. But hope that you have a week on the bench before the next one starts
What I did before getting on this shitty project. Sent 20+ emails to SM/PPMD I knew or didn’t know, got a few responses and had a few conversations. Led nowhere. Scheduled a call with a SM three times. Three times the SM just didn’t join the call without saying anything the last two times. So I gave up.
What if you do B but then get discouraged due to lack of responses/available projects so it turns into A but then feel guilty for not doing anything so it turns into C and then shifts back and forth between the 3 as you slowly lose your mind on the bench.........
d) Chill for like a week or two and do absolutely nothing work related
Yes I was just told today that I should be networking all the time, and I thought to myself, but I like my bench time 😬! So yeah pretty much A until it starts feeling embarrassing then B/C when I realize there aren't really any good projects.
