I recently got reprimanded for not being productive enough this past quarter. It's a long story, but I had psychosis and my concentration was bad for awhile, so I wasn't productive with anything. If I were to guess how bad it was, I'd say that what I did in 1 day, people would be able to do in 1-2 hours. My boss seemed kinda pissed.

Anyway, I've recently been pushing myself to work weekends to get stuff done by the end of this quarter (which "conveniently" ends in 2 weeks). And when I say "work weekends," I mean like 12+ hours on Sat and another 12+ hours on Sun.

My old boss kept commenting on my "erratic" work efficiency when I was still working under him. He said that sometimes I got practically nothing done, and then other times, I got way more done than anyone else in my group. (Basically... he indirectly noticed the mania and depression.)

I don't want my current boss thinking that I can keep up with the 24+ hour weekends, but I also don't want to lose my job by missing my quarterly goals, which were just set by him 2 weeks ago. I am not manic right now; I'm just pushing myself to get this stuff done so that I don't get fired. I wish I knew at the on the last day of the quarter how I performed, not 2 months AFTER THE FACT.

The thing is... I have yet to hit ANY of my goals, and I have 8 of them. I'm like halfway done on all 8 goals, but the problem is that each goal depends on another goal, so I can't just work on one goal and get it done. I have to work on ALL of them at once. So now it's like... all or nothing. I either get them all done or I get none of them done.
