I’ve lost my shit with people over this lol. Just sucks when you are like 3 hours in on something and then someone just comes along and makes small talk.
I was fired from my last job because I was expected to write features AND do helpdesk support at the same time and just no… I was also fired because I suck at programming but still…
I have ASD so once I get into that hyperfocus flowstate, and get pulled out of it, it’s like everything around me just shatters lol. My partner and oldest kid have ADHD so when either or both are around I mostly don’t even bother with code. I was able to get a tiny bit of stuff done this morning but it was mostly stuff I have on mental autopilot like git stuff.
It’s funny because after I got fired my production went through the roof because I was able to work on my own stuff without dealing with other people’s bullshit.
It really does lol. Now if people would just pay me to make them websites… I am making a freebie for some friends and hoping I can get some traffic from that though.

I live at home and my little siblings with ADHD* knock on the door to tell me stuff all the time ughhh
*I have ADHD too which is why it’s extra tragic when I lose my train of thought.

haha yeah writing code while dealing with distractions is effectively impossible

I’ve never been good at finding work through freelancing, some of my friends to it and seem to like it.
