Moved from writing code to mostly reviewing other people's code and unblocking their PRs, and I miss building things
Anonymous
Got asked to lead a small team four months ago. Days now are mostly reviews, unblocking people, and meetings about priorities, and I maybe write actual code twice a week if I'm lucky. The team's doing well, which is apparently the point, but I miss the feeling of shipping something myself instead of just clearing the path for someone else to ship it. Is that a normal adjustment period or a sign I picked the wrong track?
