Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night?

Does your mind start to race? Do you wonder if your remote teams did their work? Do you dread the commute and the stuffed full in-box. Big files attached… takes [...]
A friend asked me this question the other day, “Have you been gruntled lately”?
I have to say, it sounded kind of kinky, so I wasn’t sure how to answer.
