What to do when looking for a job after being laid off? I’m puppy-sitting, watching Bruce attempt to eat a bone bigger than himself and it was a great decision.

5 great questions to gauge if you’re firefighting more than building!

@GergelyOrosz10 Mar 2023
As a software engineer, how can you recognize that you are firefighting too much? Here are a few questions worth asking. If the answer is "Yes" to several of them: you might be firefighting too much. What other ways would you say you can recognize that you're in this situation?
As an engineer, how can you recognize if you are firefighting more than what should be normal? Ask yourself these questions: Do I spend more time responding to incidents/interruptions than working on my “main” work? Do I find myself regularly doing overtime because of unexpected work that comes up, and is urgent? Have there been at least two weeks in the past month when unexpected and urgent work came in, that needed to be dealt with ASAP? On weeks that I am oncall, does my workload increase significantly, thanks to having to mitigate oncall issues, on top of my ‘normal’ work? Do I expect to keep working on unexpected work that will just keep coming in, at least for the next month?
