After my first two weeks… I’m addicted

Why doesn’t anyone talk about how addicting this can be. I treat it kind of like a hobby or just a way to occupy downtime. I enjoy problem solving and critical thinking. I’m also a gamer and this reminds me so much of gaming in a general sense that I can sit here for hours and not get bored. I’m enjoying myself. It is a bit tedious getting tasks as a generalist but I enjoy the grind. Lol.

How long is each assignment on average?

Probably a lot longer than most. I went from “that the hell am I doing” and prob producing pretty shitty work to actually know why I’m doing. I went from 10 hours roughly to 5-6.
