Listen, I love being a leader. I love the energy of my teams, getting to know so many amazing personalities, and doing the best I can to bring out the best in them. Having said that, I often miss writing code and being the nerd in the corner with headphones.

Please, for the love that is all that is holy, if you are financially able, take more than one vacation a year.
