1/? People keep making "how do you sleep?!" jokes. I don't want to give the impression that I overwork to do what I do - I sleep just fine!

I have an amazing team at Robot Teddy, and Kowloon is not just me, at all.

My role just has a lot of "fly in, fly out" work involved. https://twitter.com/DevRelCallum/status/1357359841241690115
2/?Which means yes, I might have been the person leading negotiations on say, a Gamepass deal, but my team helps to execute, every single time. I get 6-8 hours of sleep a night, don't start work till 10am, never work between 6-8PM, and occasionally do a US call at 8.
3/? It's probably my fault that I'm giving off this impression, because Robot Teddy was never meant to be a business, it was just me doing consulting, and slowly growing to help that. It's pivoted pretty hard into it's own company now with my amazing team running their own stuff
4/? But I still feel like a lot of the results get placed on my shoulders rather than the rest of the folks (8 of us now?!), and I need to do better about that.

So yes, I do sleep, I have a healthy work life balance, I occasionally work more but I get directly compensated.
5/? Not sure if I'm making sense here, just don't want to promote to juniors that you have to not sleep to do things, I've just managed to create an environment where I can hop between different projects like a weird little rabbit. <3
