    Thanks for this. I used to make much more time for exercise during the day but the last few months have felt like I’m physically stuck to the desk. I don’t think the importance of getting outside for 30 mins can be overestimated!

    Hey thanks for this, I used to do way more pair programming (and mob programming) but in my current position it always feels like I “don’t have time”. I think I should try and make more time for this.

    Hello, I’ve been working in technology for nearly 10 years and I just can’t be arsed anymore.

    The companies I’ve worked for have generally been B2B, providing technology solutions for other technology platforms, but there’s no “product” or “thing” at the end, just some more shitty software.

    I try to provide the best service I can, but I end up burning out each week. Just utterly fed up and lacking any motivation to make improvements as I have too much other stuff to “deliver”.

    My question is more around what drives any of you ?
    Do you get up in the morning wanting to make a difference ?
    Do you work in an area that directly does good in the world ?
    How do you stay motivated and fulfilled in your careers?

    What makes you want to get up each day ?

    Hey, I just want to say a big thank you for this. I used apollo a lot and was hoping for an app experience a bit like it. This is perfect, I’ve been on tildes more and more recently but the lack of a nice app had kind of stopped me engaging. This is a lovely experience (replying from surfboard in TestFlight) so nice job!
