Add time tracking for time tracking with every other task.

I actually did this at my previous job. They wanted me to time track everything I did to the minute so I started adding time spent tracking my time. Boss hated it but couldn't really do anything to get me to stop

to the minute. that sounds like you would be in a time tracking loop. I keep track to the half hour but mainly as that is a convenient calendar segmentation.

Got any tips for how to keep track when you flip between tasks so often? Program or app or paper and pen tracking?

I made a spreadsheet where one column would timestamp each row when the task note column was edited. Then another column that just checks time between timestamps to tell me how long was spent on a task. Another column was used for formatting so I could quickly copy/paste everything into the system at the end of the day
