I thought I was burnt out. Turns out my calendar was just broken

I thought I was burnt out. Turns out my calendar was just broken

No lunch. No breaks. Meetings stacked like bricks. Every day felt like being slowly crushed by my own schedule. I was drafting my resignation.


Then I realized: the job wasn't killing me. The calendar was.


I tried Reclaim. The AI added buffer time between meetings. Blocked focus time I never asked for. Scheduled lunch like it mattered.


Same job. Same workload. Except now I can breathe.

Breaks happen automatically. Deep work actually gets protected.
