Yup. I actually only take a 50% workload because half of my time is spent in random meetings telling people no, or giving obscenely high estimates that essentially amount to "no." The other half of my time is fixing problems from when they didn't listen when I said "no."
Such is life I guess. But occasionally, I get to work on something new. And honestly, that's fine, I've long since stopped caring about my name showing up on things.
Not all heroes wear capes. You're saving their butts, and they don't know it.
